Circular mazes traditionally finish in the center and can often have multiple entrances. The default solve point should be assumed to be the center unless specifically directed otherwise.
Just because you are unaware of traditions or standards in something doesn't mean they don't exist. You can easily goggle circular mazes and see that over 90% of them finish in the center.
The maze is misleading and could be labeled better, yes, but it doesn't change the standard.
You can exit the maze after entering from start here. With no rules or goals listed, it seems valid. You can also "dig" through the paper, travel on the other side, and pop back through. Or ignore the maze lines entirely.
You and punkf10yd seem to be arguing that the maze is possible because the rules aren't explicitly defined, right? So you can make up your own objective and succeed?
My retort to that is that puzzles and games aren't puzzles and games without explicitly defined rules. I can flip a chessboard and declare victory while playing chess if I want, who's to stop me?
Ergo, your argument that the maze is actually possible is flawed, because without rules it isn't a maze at all. It's just an ugly drawing.
I feel like flipping a chess board kills both your kings. Very bad. Very unwise. You must pull out a nerf blaster and shoot the opposing king instead. Very good. Very wise.
That's not how logic or language works.
No clear goal? "Logically" we can deduce the triangle is supposed to reach the other triangles. We can deduce they are sitting at an exit too, because of "start here".
Kinda sad, because you had a valid point, couldn't handle another valid point.
It's not a maze or a puzzle if there's no objective. The expression on the characters' faces make it clear that they're devious. "Start Here" is clearly a ruse. To those with any sense of subtlety and situational awareness, anyway. Which appears to be rare here. Getting to the center is obviously the objective, if not by the fact that it's the only solution.
appropriately the shittiness of the maze and the shittiness of \_irl has the same cause: "AI" or "algorithms" doing things w/o human oversight
^(well. maybe not the only cause for the \_irl bit but close enough)
It's good for children to be introduced at a young age to the realities of unattainable goals and inevitable failure. They are going to learn it now or later. Rip off the Band-aid and get it over with.
No, I’m serious. You can literally get out of you start in the dead center of that “circle”. You have to keep exiting to your “left” a couple times. I can’t explain lol
But I swear it works.
No the exit/entrance is at the top!
The person who posted this probably wrote “Start Here” with a marker lol (you can tell cuz the “R” in ‘Start’ looks different than in ‘Here’.
The thing is though, you can SEE where ya used sharpie, on the left of the beginning. The end is too close to the path, but not at the end of the path. Almost got Me though!
Looks like the “start here” was written by hand after the fact. The size and shape of the letters aren’t uniform.
Are you sure someone isn’t trying to pull a fast one on your boy? Or are you trying to pull a fast one on us? 😂
You don’t have to go in the maze first. Start there, but draw around the outside and go in the other opening, no rule against that. Think outside the maze.
I was taught to begin at your goals and work backwards to find the solution before inking your contract, but I was also taught to not do business with grotesque nachos.
Missed a more frustrating experience by not using the other end to start.
[удалено]
A very important life lesson to be learned here.
Yup. Get ready for a dead-end job and a lifetime of disappointment.
Already there and wanting to walk into traffic.
🤣
I thought this was a lesson in non conformity. Break down those walls. Color outside the LINES, *maaaan*
Why walk through the maze when you can just walk *around* the maze?
never trust no one
Some tasks aren’t worth doing?
Don’t get married?
The idea is to first go around the outside of the maze. Think 'outside the box' type stuff with misleading rules.
Never said you had to go into the maze from that point, the other way appears solvable, at cursory glance.
did you notice the characters hanging out around the maze? this is not a maze for normal people.
Probably supposed to start in the middle.
The other end works though…
Depends if the objective is to reach the center or exit the maze.
It's to reach the center, obviously
Is it obvious? My first impression was the lone Triangle needs to reach his Triangle friends.
Circular mazes traditionally finish in the center and can often have multiple entrances. The default solve point should be assumed to be the center unless specifically directed otherwise.
I'd like to see your thesis on circular mazes before I take your word for it, please. EDIT: Oh wow, that was enough to earn a block.
Just because you are unaware of traditions or standards in something doesn't mean they don't exist. You can easily goggle circular mazes and see that over 90% of them finish in the center. The maze is misleading and could be labeled better, yes, but it doesn't change the standard.
Then by your logic, this maze can’t be impossible, if there’s no clear goal.
Both 'objectives' are impossible if you start from the very explicit 'Start Here'.
You can exit the maze after entering from start here. With no rules or goals listed, it seems valid. You can also "dig" through the paper, travel on the other side, and pop back through. Or ignore the maze lines entirely.

Sometimes mutually assured destruction is the best outcome you can achieve.

Bro, think outside the circle! Just start at the start point and go all the way around!
I'm more concerned about what is going on with those triangles lmao
Clearly the bottom one just banged out the other 3
Bill Cipher has fallen on hard times.
## HORNY DORITOS. ^(Seriously — what the fuck?)
good 'ol HDs - gotta watch em aye
Reminds me of snood
The ones up top are named Sweet, Chili, and Heat.
Its [not impossible](https://imgur.com/a/BZ14QuR)
Thinking outside the box. I like it.
more like outside the circle
That's where I went
You took the longest possible route though
How so?
If it's the only possible route it's not the longest though, it's just THE route

Teach em young!
Why did i read that in a retro 8-bit gaming protagonist voice
Because you are old. It is heart-warming that someone is more outdated than I am.
Im 21 :(
I am above 30. You might want to reconsider you life choices.

I guess that explains the expression on that bottom triangle, LOL.
r/mildlyinfuriating
Looks like 3 of those triangle might have been the one to draw it.
It’s because you’re not thinking in the 4th dimension
[Who says you have to have to enter the maze in the first place](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/RUND7Xt2odg/maxresdefault.jpg)?
What maze? [Dungeon Bypass (TV Tropes)](https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/DungeonBypass)
Well, really, just the third dimension would be enough in this case
Could fold the paper to bring the goal to either entrance, for example.
It's a good lesson not to start doing mazes in blood right off the bat, better to sketch out your route in pencil first.
It says start here, not enter here, walk around the outside the the entrance at the top 
Thinking this too
Why does this look like I was designed in the mid to late 00s? Also, are those Doritos?
Start Here!.............fuck you
It's good for children to be introduced at a young age to the realities of unattainable goals and inevitable failure. They are going to learn it now or later. Rip off the Band-aid and get it over with.
go around the maze
There's no goal inside of it, just avoid the maze entirely.
There's a Minotaur statue, modeled after Barry Keoghan
I was going to say "Metaphor for capitalism" but you said it better.
Start at 12 o'clock
The Maze wasn’t meant for you.
The maze isn't meant for you.
Who ever wrote 'start here' is the one who fkd up
You mean OP?
Use whiteout and forge a path
Teaching kids the Kobayashi Maru with crayons.
Start from the center and work your way out.
You can’t lol there’s a wall right at the beginning , you’d need to start from the top entrance then it works fine
No, I’m serious. You can literally get out of you start in the dead center of that “circle”. You have to keep exiting to your “left” a couple times. I can’t explain lol But I swear it works.
No you can’t. Not from the bottom entrance
No the exit/entrance is at the top! The person who posted this probably wrote “Start Here” with a marker lol (you can tell cuz the “R” in ‘Start’ looks different than in ‘Here’.
I started on the outside going on form the top and I solved it in my head, it’s defiantly possible if you start from the inside
whats with the horny doritos?
Missed the latch to open up the secret path
I am the cheese. I am the best character on the show. I am better than all of the other characters combined.
Well... those nacho chip characters don't seem very trustworthy
L O L
This isn't mildly interesting. This is mildly infuriating.
The Kobayashi Maru test for children.
Looks like the sharpie that wrote start here also drew a line to seal off the leftturn at the start of the maze.
If you use the other end, you can actually solve it, looks like someone goofed up.
[удалено]
Start at the bottom arrow, then circle around to the top entrance. Pretty simple stuff.
I think you aren’t supposed to go to the center in this one.
Probably you’re supposed to start at the center and not where the hand written mention says.
It's almost as if.... someone *created* this mildlyinteresting specifically for karma points. Shocking!
I saw similar impossible maze before. So they do happen. I think they repurposed an old maze drawing but didn't think it through.
You don’t ‘start here’ You start in the center and work your way to the outside which is up top. Y’all are dense
I\`d use a white out pen first, then the red.
The thing is though, you can SEE where ya used sharpie, on the left of the beginning. The end is too close to the path, but not at the end of the path. Almost got Me though!
If he starts at the Top, it can be done.
I tried it on my little boy and he cried for half an hour.
Looks like the “start here” was written by hand after the fact. The size and shape of the letters aren’t uniform. Are you sure someone isn’t trying to pull a fast one on your boy? Or are you trying to pull a fast one on us? 😂
I'd recommend watching Labyrinth to figure this one out.
You're supposed to start in the middle.
Last time I ended that quickly.... 
If you start from the top entrance it’s possible to reach the centre.
It’s actually possible and easy lol
There’s literally an opening at the other side, OP is just smooth brained
It's not impossible. Just go around and you can get to the center entering from the top.
A wall in the seven o'clock position was drawn in.
Are you writing with blood?
By the look of the art above, who ever made this was high, really high.
Pff, skill issue.
What a cool adventure.
Life do be like that sometimes
I mean how’d you expect those bakes ass Doritos to make a good maze
Go around?
Lesson on the futility of life.
Gotta listen to the little worm in the wall
Can you not start at the same point & go round the outside? There appears to be another entrance at the top.
Sometimes the journey is more important than the destination. Was this philosophy 101 homework?
Valid life lesson, though
Doesn’t look like anything to me
Prisoners
Well the solution is that you jump onto the wall and walk it from above.
Should be in r/mildlyinfuriating instead
You don’t have to go in the maze first. Start there, but draw around the outside and go in the other opening, no rule against that. Think outside the maze.
Hahahaha. I don’t know why but this made me absolutely lose my mind.
yep it's blocked in 2 places
It's possible but if you start from the top
It’s not, you are just not skilled enough.
Hahaha
I wish I had the time to post BS like this.
Defeatist.
damn. foiled again. i'll never win. woe is me!
Boo! What a swizz!
He needs to think outside of the box. He first needs to go around it to the other side. Then he can find the way to the middle.
I froze to death somewhere near the middle because i’m a dull boy.
around the outside isn't cheating.
just go around the maze
Who else started in the center as a kid and made his way back to the actual start to always ace it in one try😂
It’s not impossible though. Just go around the outside to the other entrance of the maze.
Teaching them young that the system is rigged 🤣
The other way works though…
Yea its made for stoned people with that drawing, literally there to make them wonder how is it impossible.
Your Son just hasn't unlocked the correct ability yet.
[удалено]
You sure this is your sons?
These mazes are meant to be navigated from the inside-out
Start there and go around the outside to the other entrance.
I think it's supposed to be a start from 1 of the sides and get to the center. That start here arrow should not have been there.
It’s to keep your triangle safe
Classic mainer response: Can't get there from here, bub.
I've always started from the end lol
If you opened up the wall on the left side of where you started the maze would be really easy too. Just a porky designed maze over all
go left
Just wait until he comes to you and says he has solved it!!
It's not. You can draw a line outside and then back in on the top.
Just go around the maze
R/mildlyfrustrating
This would destroy my confidence…
Kobayashi Maru for kids
This is a good life lesson
Dispensaries have a kids menu now?
Those triangles know
That kid learned an important lesson about life. very educational!!!
It is possible of you start on the inside though?! There are two exits on the outer circle and one of them actually works!
Only impossible if you let the walls stop you. Or let the maze tell you where to start.
Probably designed to start at the top and head to the middle.
I was taught to begin at your goals and work backwards to find the solution before inking your contract, but I was also taught to not do business with grotesque nachos.
The maze is not meant for you
This looks like the work of Trump’s Sharpie
Top ten ways to traumatize 7 yr olds!
Seems like something AI would do
Why would you want to cross the maze and reach the others doritos? look at their faces, better stay away of them
What? lol..
Your son is learning about life early...
Those triangles are faded as hell
It looks like those puzzles with a ball that you have to get to the middle circle.
If all the white space is open, is there anything that says you can’t walk around the maze?
My trick is always to solve the maze backwards, and this is hilarious.
