'Cursed Comments' is one of those niche subreddits that have become an integral part of internet culture. Even though the community is relatively young even by online standards, it has already attracted over 3 million members and has been featured in various media outlets. (Bored Panda has also covered it here, here, and here.)
It's difficult to pinpoint what a cursed comment actually is. There are just too many forms it can appear in. According to the subreddit's 'About' section, however, the best way of defining it is probably a statement that gets you to think along the lines of "What the f$k did I just read?" and leaves you speechless while also somehow makes sense.
But the best part is that the incomprehension of the comment you just read (or the blatant gruesomeness of it) is also enough to draw a smile on your face.
Pewdiepie said 'Cursed Comments' is the worst subreddit. But is it really? Can it simultaneously be the best one too? In a couple of days, on April 10th, the community will celebrate its 4th birthday, so we decided it's the perfect time to revisit it and show you some of its recent top posts.

"You see what happened to Appendix? I'm not pissing this guy off"
We managed to get in touch with the moderators of 'Cursed Comments' and one of them agreed to tell us more about the inner workings of their subreddit.
"I think people like it because all throughout the internet, you run across some odd images or videos, and this content may provoke thoughts that you wouldn’t dare say—but someone else did say it," the mod told Bored Panda.
"It's one giant vault of the internet's best (worst?) cursed comments."

The person looking after the sub said the community is "a group of people who find amusement in seeing the wild and unspoken comments out in the vast depths of the internet that would probably go unnoticed and ignored" if it didn't exist.
They're the heroes we didn't know we need. Many of the gems you see in this list have gotten only a handful of likes on the platforms they were originally posted on and most likely would have perished if it wasn't for these folks.
"They aren't always the most sensible comments, but they are interesting nonetheless."

There should be at least one random non-athlete in each event, just to shut up everyone at home yelling at the tv that they’d be so much better at it.

"Over the course of our history as a subreddit, we grew naturally for a long time and became a rather large community [on our own, but] then PewDiePie made his first video [about us], and we exploded in popularity," the mod recalled.
"It's been an amazing journey watching and helping grow a community like this, and having one of the largest YouTubers in the world make videos on it is pretty incredible."

But more members also mean more problems. "It's become more difficult to moderate a sub of such scale, and we deal with a lot of mod harassment/abuse, people who want to disrupt the flow of things and make our lives harder."
"Often, the people who decide to verbally abuse us are just angry because we removed their post/comment or banned them," the mod explained.

"We once even had a user who manually DMed every single moderator of our team individually with a message purely consisting of the n-word and no more."
The moderator said that every Reddit community has at least a few bad apples, but "due to the nature of our subreddit, it tends to be worse than some others."

For better or worse, the internet has become the last place where you can make such comments as few risk saying these things to people in public.
Even before the infamous incident between Will Smith and Chris Rock at the Oscars, the most dangerous thing that a comedian has to face today is offending political correctness.

Last year, Jennifer Saunders' take on the matter made headlines in the likes of Mail Online (“Jennifer Saunders says Absolutely Fabulous wouldn't be commissioned today in Britain's 'woke' culture").
The closest Saunders had come to saying that was the vague assertion that people "talk themselves out of stuff now because everything is sensitive."
But in the past, she was more direct. "People are so politically correct now," she said in 2017. "You can’t even get away [with playing] a politically incorrect character, because that is seen as being politically incorrect."
"Everyone's down on everyone for everything."

Comedy gives us a break from everyday challenges. So if cursed comments help you to escape existential dread, who cares if you're laughing at them or not?
They're just someone's random thoughts that escaped through their fingers into the ocean of the internet without any harmful intentions. (At least I hope so.)

The best graffiti I saw was "Jumping Dave is gay". No idea who he was, why he got the name Jumping Dave, no idea if he was gay or not. But is sounds like a Netflix drama we deserve.
I had to piss really bad once, had to go in the men's (i'm afab). I saw an Ernest Hemingway quote written, and under it was "stop vandalizing, jerry, we all know you've read hemingway"
My favorite at a bar when I was 19 was a limerick: There once was a woman with red shoes She spent all your money & drank all your booze She didn't have a cherry, but that's no sin She still had the box that the cherry came in
Top 3 best ones I saw in the mens was 1: Your mom is so proud of you! Reply - You lasted longer than your dad AND didn't wipe on the curtains. 2: *On a condom machine in an Ice cream parlour toilets* Buy me and stop one. 3: *On a hand dryer* Press button for Bacon. Bonus hand dryer grafitti: Press button for carrot sticks and Pressing button will release ghost fingers
.....my favorite bathroom stall is "here I sit and contemplate, should I s**t or mas****te? lol"
She read all the comments the boys wrote and lost faith.
Load More Replies...I've seen photos of restroom graffiti where someone wrote “I f****d your mother”, below which someone else had added, “Go home Dad, you’re drunk”.
The profile picture and name make me wonder if this person is even a girl at all.
Like I know it says “gf” but this just reminds me of the profiles dudes make for their anime girlfriends who aren’t real people.
Load More Replies..."Today I bought a hand grenade. Headmasters' office is toast!" (In Russian I rhymes). Law school I went to.
I was liked "my mom made me a homosexual" followed by " if I buy the yarn, will she make me one too".
My town used to have a restaurant where the ladies loo was wallpapered with male centrefolds. With bay leaves applied where you'd expect figleaves (it was a good restaurant). My nan didn't need anything explaining at all. Pissed the hell out of my mother. All boxes ticked 😈
Random story but the other day I found a whole-a$$ sandwich in the boys' room just sitting there like hey
I can pretty much guarantee the girls ajust how they my re talking about themselves. The influencer and.
The girls are just commenting on how much they value themselves and not their competition.
Load More Replies...Never gave much though about it, but in France, 100% chance you will have a phone number from a guy offering oral and another one praising solidarity with Palestine.
My favourite bit of school graffiti was 'Sam B is a Scottish jockstrap"
Ive never seen a pleasant and clean public/school bathroom whether its mens or ladies 🤢 im still traumatised by the public loos at Pwllheli im never going in a public toilet again 😳 it definitely wasnt positive notes all over the walls!
I worked in maintenance at a big store and I don't get the idea that women's bathrooms are all pristine and s**t. They were DISGUSTING. Always poop on the seat, the floor, and the wall. Tissue paper everywhere. Regularly there would be blood in places other than the proper receptacle. The way the treated the feline hygiene disposal bins, gross! My.theory, is they they're all so worried about how gross the bathroom is that they don't want to touch anything. So, they hover, if a garbage has a push door or flat they don't want to touch it so they use whatever they're throwing away to push and throw it in and it backfires. And, it wasn't like it was a truckstop bathroom. It was deep cleaned at least 3 times a day. It was, however, in a big box store not know for high class customers. I can't say which, but come on you know!
once i saw pencil graffiti that was a circle saying "lets start over again" with an arrow pointing to the stall door. it was inside the stall.
then the girls bathroom at my school has paint and graffiti all over the walls, and based on my guy friends comments, theirs does too
The girls bathroom at my school had a gigantic, hyper-detailed D for about a week before they got the janitor to clean it. So remember, not all girls bathrooms have "ur beautiful" 😏
the girls bathroom at my school just has deez nuts written everywhere
The best I saw was in a club toilet it said "IM ON DRUGS!" I thought it was the funniest thing ever.... Probably because I was also on drugs.
The toilets in our university library had "flush hard, it's a long way to the canteen" i.e the campus restaurant.
Dave was clearly just happy. I can't believe how you all interpret this stuff
This is a really old one: "Here I sit, brokenhearted...came to s**t but only farted."
The boys' bathroom walls are covered with the correctly spelled phrase, "Actually girls, you aren't."
Cursed Cup .
For those too young (or innocent) to understand: DO NOT GOOGLE THAT FOR YOUR OWN SANITY! Trust me on that! EDIT for those who stumble upon this and don´t know what it is about: Two girls, making out, looks hot, then they share a poop-cup. No, literally, excrement in a cup.

Came for the post, stayed for everyone's comments. This is why I love BP, everyone here is awesome! I needed an ambulance at least 3 times though.
This is why I absolutely love Reddit: everyone lets their personality shine, will crack a world-class joke, offer supportive advice, and give you something to think about.

Not dark humor. I hate to see what junk was on here. I looked at 3 o4 and quit. Yes, I'm old and biased against bad language & bad stories. Sue me!!
