Tumblr has desensitized me to this. Also "cursed" content doesn't work if its all curated into one place. It works on Twitter or tumblr because its dispersed between regular posts so it's unexpected. Also these ones are just bad.
even the curated collections of "actually good" cursed comments i've seen are 90% unfunny recycled content also way too many obvious self-screenshots. mofos will even like/upvote their own comment to make up for the fact that it was "cursed" enough to grab absolutely no one's attention. dude your comment wasn't funny on the first site you posted on why would it be funny here
Four months late but yes, I agree. I noticed the same thing with collections of hilariously wrong (or spookily right) comments from before C-19. They're funny in the wild precisely because you aren't expecting them.
As someone who will look at this subreddit every once in a while, you REALLY need to dig deep to find anything even remotely funny. Just goes to show that 8th grade humour will never escape the pits of dark humour, edgyness, and stupidity.
One of the saddest things about these terrible cursed comments is that 90% of the time you know exactly which famous comment they're trying to copy or cash in on.
Kind of glad this subreddit is out here accidentally documenting the dregs of reddit humor. It's like hostile architecture meant to warn future generations about radioactive waste. "This is not a place of honor."
It annoys me that it could’ve been a funny comment if it was just at: “Why did she take her son to the vet?” But no, they had to make it all wordy and include the fact that the child is autistic.
tbh i feel like it couldve been funny if the delivery was better, it took way too long to get to the punchline, i think most reddit jokes have that problem lol
Ikr it's kinda like you feel immense sympathy because if they look disheveled while wearing formal clothing you assume something has gone wrong on a day that was supposed to be special for them
Its nice to know Reddit has not changed in the slightest in the last 4 years since I stopped browsing it regularly. And it's REALLY nice to know, that literally ALL of the jokes remain the same, so if I should one day suffer from immense amnesia, I can just continue on tipping my fedora to kind reddit strangers thanking them for their gold and commenting something vaguely sexual, not remembering I had ever lost my virginity. Stay golden, Reddit. Someday, Reddit Island will exist. It's not a rug-pull this time. I swear.
r/196, r/1968, r/196x, r/196x2 i actually really think these are the funniest ones I’ve come across but they’re all anarchy ones so you’ve gotta dig for the gold
A cursed conversation that still haunts me today is I tapped on my friend’s belly noticing that she was a bit bloated and asked “aww what’s this?” without any hesitation she replied “rotten eggs” refering to her period being late…
I -think- (and take this with a grain of salt) the "Carrie on My Wayward Son" bit is also a play on the fact that everytime that song plays on the HIT show Supernatural, a main character dies. And since the first responders thought she was dead, and dressed as Carrie... Regardless, it was a bad comment, not cursed.
r/HolUp is very similar to this because it's a subreddit that regularly makes popular and it single-handedly has made me try to figure out how to hide subreddits (you can't)
If you want to hide subreddits on mobile, use the Boost for reddit app. I haven't had to suffer r/HolUp and other garbage subs for years, reddit can be kinda pleasant sometimes now. Haven't figured out how to mass filter the stupid comments yet tho
@@minnows-_- y'all it's not shock humor if you've been making the same joke 20 times a day for the past... how old is the "this person failed to meet my conventional gender expectations, i am literally rolling on the floor rn" brand of humor, again?
The coconut comment is only cursed if you know about the specific reddit story of the guy that screwed one. If I remember correctly, the coconut got really nasty and moldy and I think he used it more than once, if that story is even remotely true.
Ethan wearing his suit on the outside is so much more respectful than what Kurtis Connor did, having the nerve to wear his suit UNDER his t-shirt. Ethan did it right.
i took unlimited amounts of psychic damage just from watching this, I cant imagine how long Ethan and Mr Beard had to sit in a dark room after this just to recover. Ethan said the narwhal quote and I legit felt my life force was being sucked out by that thing from Monsters Inc. My tumblr is STILL out there somewhere...... *shudders* ......Ethan, we use the same joycons!
3:28 knowing exactly which coconut loving guy they're talking about and the story surrounding it definitely makes the comment a bit more cursed. I will never be able to erase that story from my mind
My friend is really good at cursed comments. My personal favorite quote from her is "sour patch kids don't taste like kids at all." Makes me laugh every time I think about it.
I feel like "cursed" content online has become something of the millennial and gen Z equivalent of stupid puns in Minions memes posted by Facebook moms. "I'm in shape. Round is a shape." Hardee fucking harr.
Man, I'm disappointed you guys didn't get to the transphobia! That shit's always funny, especially when they say "attack helicopter". No need for a punchline after that.
I used to be a huge fan of the cursed comments subreddit when i was a 12 year old boy in middle school with anger issues. Thats the fan base. Im gay now so thats fun.
you guys are so refreshing and actually funny as a girl it’s so hard to find actual funny youtubers who’s jokes aren’t making fun of marginalized groups
I sent the jellyfish one to one of my friends a couple weeks ago and she went ‘That’s what they put in our anti-depressants’. Definitely wasn’t cursed, just absolutely true (no hate to people who have psych meds, mine just made me 10x worse and they were given to me to make me so tired my doctors wouldn’t have to deal with me)
I daydream about a narrative sequel to Pokemon Red/Blue where Red is an adult and Blue is a professor now. I daydream about Anarcho- Syndicalism. I daydream about what I would do with the remote from Click. I daydream about living in Star Trek. I don't want to fight a bear. I want to fight the Borg
maybe the real cursed comments are the people reposting these going "wow funniest shit ive ever heard in my life", or the friends we made along the way idk
This is less the kinda curse thats like "oh shit a wizard made my bones fall out" or like, werewolf curse. It's more the subtle curse when you get 3 months down the line and you're like "oh yea these comments gave me a vague sense of depression about the state of the world"
"the narwhal bacons at midnight" is objectively ten times lamer that "i like your shoelaces" like at least tumblr had the decency to make the response weird and the question normal so you wouldnt weird out random people
Cursed Comments really strikes me as one of those subreddits that became much worse as it grew. I’ve never been active on it but I’ve seen so many subs that seem to just lose the point once they become big enough to be karma farms.
I’m a vegan who hates PETA. I’m autistic and hate Autism Speaks. I love working out but despise ‘gym bro’ culture (the toxic stuff not the actual supportive people) not all organizations positively represent the groups they claim to. PETA has probably turned more people away from veganism. They’re definitely one of the reasons vegans are bullied on the internet (and in real life)
The thing with reddit, the jokes get beat to shit. The coconut joke is... ummm... he effed it, for a long time, and then there were maggots in it. Another "inside joke" of redditors. and also i'm sorry lmao
Okay the coconut one made me recoil a bit. The redditor is referencing a TIFU post about a dude fucking a coconut, leaving it, and then fucking it again-except it had maggots in it. The comment itself isn't bad, but if youre chronically online (like me) the context makes it awful
I've been online since i was 11 and the most cursed comment I saw recently. It was either a charlie vod or whatever stream he was reacting to. "I peed in my sisters butt and now there's worms when I pee" This was on a police chase stream and i hate that it plauges my thoughts occasionally.
I posted there once. It was cursed, but not edgy I don't remember the context, but the things were: "You can't tell me what to do! I will not romanticize my spaghetti, in fact, I will degrade my spaghetti." "Cruel" "What if the spaghetti likes it and has given consent" "hot"
I was born less than 6 months before the millennial cutoff, and was more or less offline for most of my adolescence. My first social media other than a parent monitored FB was a tumblr that my friends encouraged me to get. I had virtually no knowledge of internet culture, I had never been in the near vicinity of internet humor or online fandom, and the first time I logged on and started exploring (almost 18 years old) I was like “shipping…? Like fedex?” And then I got hurtled ass over teakettle into the kind of evil freak discourse that makes Twitter Stan drama look like a senior citizen community line dance event. All this to say, there were multiple points in this vid that had me feeling like I just got fully phineas gaged in the noggin. I like your shoelaces. Christ
10:49 its a reference to the tv show supernatural i think- in one of the season finales the main characters car got rammed by a semi truck and was totaled and the song "carry on my wayward son" was played in that scene/ end credits
The sad thing is that the subreddit actually did have cursed stuff before, but I think it started getting moderated more so all the actual cursed stuff got deleted.
So just for context. That 1st comment about the guy who F'd a coconut, was actually referencing a different reddit post that went viral a few years ago about a guy talking, in detail, about how he tried to have sex with a coconut.
