Why would Pewdiepie call a far corner of the internet known by the title “Cursed Comments” "the very worst subreddit” out there, I wonder? Surely there should be many more reckless and vicious subreddits that refuse to abide by the rules of common sense.

Well, seemingly innocent at first glance, the subreddit Cursed Comments owns its name 100 percent. Why? Because, as the community’s description says, it serves a collection of “comments that strike the reader into oblivion, while leaving you speechless at the same time.”

Sometimes, it’s the blatant gruesomeness, other times it’s pure incomprehension, sometimes it’s sheer absurdity, other cases it’s all ensued hilarity. After all, it’s a reflection of all the communication happening out in the virtual wild west. Nothing is sacred, everything is kinda meme-like.

So we picked out some of the most ‘srsly?’ and ‘im outta here’ comments as shared by a whopping 2.5 million cursed members in the group. In the end, we are all more or less cursed, it’s just that the cursed ones already know it.

Psst! More cursed comments await in our previous post right here.

To find out more about the community behind the widely popular Cursed Comments subreddit, Bored Panda reached out to its moderator u/Blank-Cheque, who was happy to share some insights with us.

The moderator told us that the subreddit was originally created by redditor /u/winwinwe, “who is no longer a part of the sub.” Turns out, “he was ousted by the Reddit admins for his behavior as owner of the subreddit,” explained u/Blank-Cheque.

Cursed Comments was launched in 2018, which doesn’t make it a veteran among other subreddits. However, the subreddit’s success online is indisputable since it’s home to 2.5 million members.

When asked whether the community is active or not, the moderator assured that it’s “pretty active.” And this may be a humble underestimation. u/Blank-Cheque further explained that their bot that comments on every post, /u/cursedrobot, is frequently one of the most active accounts on the site.

Furthermore, “We get millions of views—1.4 million in the last 24 hours, at time of writing,” which makes it a powerhouse in its own right.

When asked what exactly the term cursed comment means, the moderator said that the mod team has “put a lot of thought into answering this question over the years.”

He further explained, “As it says on our rules page, the official definition is 'A cursed comment is any comment that strikes the reader into oblivion. Upon seeing a cursed comment, your first reaction should be among the lines of "What the eff did I just read??” while leaving you speechless at the same time. Incomprehension of the comment just read, or the blatant gruesomeness of it should be enough to not only make you feel mystified but also to draw a smile on your face.'”

A really good cursed comment is something that comes naturally, explained the moderator. And the community is very strict about it in their policy. “In fact, we do not allow 'staged' comments. There is no method,” u/Blank-Cheque explained.

Turns out the famous YouTube vlogger Pewdiepie has been talking about the Cursed Comments subreddit and referring to it as somewhat of the worst thing on Reddit.

The moderator assured us that it’s true: “Pewdiepie has talked about /r/cursedcomments several times on his YouTube channel. I haven't seen the videos personally, but he must've liked it if he made multiple videos on it.”

I must be odd then - my guild is about 60% female and no one cares about it as long as we work together. Our best player is this fantastic no nonsense older woman and you better listen to her.

My experience is about the same. I suspect the gender divide is with mmos (more females) and combat fps (predominantly males). I have no data and have done no research though

I used a female anime avatar as a goof for a bit, and found that many of my fellow male gamers are borderline horrible, and about 20% are just absolute trash humans.

It's fun playing on my wife's playstation account. Everybody wants me on their team and nobody yells at me for being bad at the game. I just ignore all the solicitation. (I don't use voice chat)

I'm fascinated by gaming culture. It is something with which I am unfamiliar, like a remote tribe. I loved video games as a kid, but technology has moved so far from Super Nintendo that I wouldn't be able to ever be "good".

Once a guy asked if he could f*ck me and I said "f*ck off, you bastard, do you think I want your purple lil d*ck? Hell no, leave me alone, you horny little sh*t!" Just let me play Minecraft in peace! Thankfully, the majority of guys I play with are super nice and hilarious, and always back me off when some pervert's hitting on me.

My husband and I played on the same "team" in a game and they thought he was a pedo every time we flirted with each other.

As a gamer I don't find it acceptable to treat anyone like that. FFS focus on the game! That's why we're here! Stop with the sh*t, on and offline and you might get somewhere in life. I find it less of an issue in MMO, and most prevalent if FPS, but it shouldn't be anywhere in the gaming world!

My friend has a strategy in PvE fortnite(it's not as bad as the BR, I swear) where he uses his somewhat unusually high voice to sound like a girl and everyone gives him crazy loot. Good times.

I once visited a castle where the toilet was also a trapdoor so the owner could dispose of his enemies while they were pooping.

In a previous interview with Bored Panda, another moderator told us about the challenges that the community has faced recently. Turned out, after a run-in with a top Reddit moderator, the community faces a possible “quarantine” or shutdown.

This was because of a lot of jokes on the subreddit of a very sensitive nature, but things changed for the better. "That was incredibly hectic and really kicked moderation into high gear, with rules becoming much more strict. At this point in time, the moderation strictness still applies, although with a subreddit of that size, it’s still hard to fully moderate, and I personally think post submission quality has taken a hit because of it, no fault to the moderation team."

The Cursed Comments subreddit is all about humor through shock value. Or, as their moderators explain on the subreddit, they want to make you smile and mystify you with how incomprehensible and blatantly gruesome some of these comments found from the corners of the internet are.

What’s even better is let their body decompose, help to further it along, and then you get a free Halloween decoration

Chicago doesn't have the highest violent crime rates. I wish that stereotype would stop. Also violent crime in Chicago, like violent crime everywhere in the U.S., has been declining since 1991.

**Spoiler Alert** Joker goes on to his fave talk show to be made fun of (all pre planned by the host) and he says that to him before going into a pretty good speech and murdering spree.
