Rage comics usually express rage or some other simple emotions or mundane activities. These comics have spread similarly in the same way that internet memes do, and several memes have originated in this medium. They have been characterized by Ars SAY Technica as an "Accepted and standardized form of online communication". The popularity of Rage comics has been attributed to their use as vehicles for humorizing shared experiences. The range of expressions and standardized, easily identifiable faces has allowed uses such as teaching English as a foreign language.

The first rage comic was posted to the [[4chan]] /b/random board in 2008. It was a simple 4-panel strip showing the author's anger about getting "splashback" while on the toilet, with the final panel featuring a zoomed-in face, known as [[Rage Guy]], screaming "'''FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-'''". It was quickly reposted and modified numerous times, with other users creating new scenarios and new characters.<sup>[5]</sup>
