Your Rage Comic Sucks  So, the New York Times published a long
article yesterday about how great rage comics are but I've been
too busy slamming my head into the side of a parked UPS van to
write anything about it until now. So here goes: Fuck rage
comics.  Rage comics are a popular meme where people cut and
paste a pre-drawn catalogue of cartoon faces into comic strips
to create boring stories about the problems they face in their
everyday lives. You've probably seen one. People on the internet
have made millions of these things, the majority of which
feature pathetic male leads who get rejected by women they have
a crush on for being excruciatingly awkward. What this says
about who makes and enjoys rage comics should be enough to
explain why rage comics are the worst thing on the internet but
I will continue.  Some critics take issue with the fact that
rage comics are not 'original' or 'creative.' It's true that
rage comics, like most memes, are perpetrated by hacks. But
unoriginality isn't their true crime
