Loss

Loss (sometimes referred as CADbortion, Loss.jpg and | || || |_) is a strip from the webcomic Ctrl+Alt+Del. It is a minor meme on the SiIvaGunner channel.
==Summary==
Ctrl+Alt+Del is a webcomic series created by Tim Buckley on October 2002. The webcomic focuses mostly on gaming humor, alternating between multi-strip story arcs and one-off gags. On June 2, 2008, a strip titled "Loss" was released; It depicts Ethan visiting the hospital to discover that his wife Lilah has suffered from a miscarriage.
Due to the strip's sudden shift of tone compared to its lighthearted predecessors, along with the rushed pace and insensitive depiction of otherwise a serious topic, "Loss" was heavily panned on the internet and spawned a wide variety of parodies and memes, one of which deconstructs the panels of the strip into seven abstract lines ("| || || |_") and creating edits which evokes the strip's panel structure. 
==Rips==
"Loss" first appeared on SiIvaGunner in "Loss - Ether One" on June 12, 2016 as a hidden image when the rip is viewed through a spectogram. With "Loss" being a visual image rather than a melody, most rips arrange the seven lines which represents the strip into a horizontal piano roll. 
"Loss" is also edited in to video thumbnails in its abstract line form, with the thumbnail for currently having the edit. The thumbnails for and , with the latter taken from the thumbnail of TimmyTurnersGrandDad's "Overworld - Super Mario Run" rip, used to have the edit, but it was phased out on 2024 with the following rips using a normal thumbnail.
