We need to see that in a full sentence, strega.
Ok, Sorry about that.
Here is the sentence I read:
"I guess she missed the memo that we’d just had our asses
handed to us".
Thanks

In what context was the sentence used?
Well, it's a bit complicated. A girl is talking about her vagina. She says that her, the vagina, is always looking for a sexul intercourse wih men, even when the guys does not seem interested. So the vagina keeps on seeking men attention even when the girl is giving up. In this particular case, the girl is blaming herself for being too persistent with a guy, and then she says that instead her vagina is ready to go on to the attack.
Here a longer paragraph
A supercop I was not, but my vagina was don-
ning her cape and knee- high red leather boots like she was
some kind of superhero, complete with neon blue unitard and
gold belt with a fl aming red C emblazoned on her chest.
I guess she missed the memo that we’d just had our asses
handed to us.
Thanks a lot.

To "have your ass handed to you" means to be well beaten in some situation, to lose badly in a contest or encounter of some kind. The longer form is to "have your ass handed to you on a plate".
Although it's not clear in your example, it's possible that the speaker has failed badly when trying to attract the guy's attention.
Examples from COCA.
"He finished 37th […] and the crew members were angry when they rolled the car back onto the hauler. One said, "We got our ass handed to us today, man."
"He was so humiliated by my performance that he couldn't even look at me. […] Christ almighty, I've just had my ass handed to me by a brainless loser like Jimmy Blogjoy."

A supercop I was not, but my vagina was donning her cape and knee- high red leather boots like she was some kind of superhero, complete with neon blue unitard and
gold belt with a flaming red C emblazoned on her chest. I guess she missed the memo that we’d just had our asses handed to us.
Thanks a lot.
