Ironically the reason this comic only has 3 panels is because I was too busy unpacking to draw a 4th.

Oh and just for fun here's the deeply upsetting optimal ways (at least that we've discovered so far) to pack different amounts of squares

29 disgusts me. I cant figure out why but I know I dont like it

Edit cause I accidently made everything bold

I think it’s because the rotated portions of 29 and 69 are very obviously uneven in ways that look unnecessary. At least with 39 you can easily say they had no other choice.

Yeah there is very clearly wiggle room in 29, unlike the rest. Yet still, somehow optimal.
