During the process of its viral spread, an exploitable version was uploaded onto MemeGenerator, spawning dozens of derivative images based on the following formulaic sentence: “(X, subject noun), <font color= cccccc >[WH]Y <font color= cccccc >[YO]U NO (Y, verb)?”

It is currently unclear where the comic began, as Rage Guy mutations have been popular on not only 4chan, but Tumblr, FunnyJunk, and many other memetic hubs for quite some time. It is believe to have first appeared in April of 2010 according to the meme entry’s original poster, but no link was provided to verify this claim.

F**k Yeah:
**** Yea is a series of four-pane cartoon strips featuring a stick figure looking rather self-complacent and quite frankly, for all the right reasons. Originally posted via /b/ board on February 11, 2010, these cartoons illustrate all sorts of triumphant moments in our daily lives that make us feel awesome, like when you wake up a few seconds before the morning alarm goes off. This phenomenon can be also seen as the antithesis to Rageguy comics, another four-pane series originating from 4chan circa late 2008.

Okay guy:
Okay (or “Okay Guy”) refers to four-pane cartoon strips depicting a stick figure saying “okay” in various circumstances where most Ragecomics characters would be inclined to disagree or react negatively. Popularized by 4chan imageboard, this spin-off series brings an interesting twist to the original Rageguy as an overly agreeable, self-deprecating guy. Cheer up, bro.

Usage
Following the format of popular Rageguy comics, each four-paned strip usually consists of a short exchange between someone and the Okay Guy character, who always brings on the anti-climatic response “okay” with a really sad face.

Rage Guy:
The name Rageguy refers to the main character of a series of crudely-drawn comics typically consisting of four panes, portraying situations which can bring rage and exasperation, with the main character screaming with anger as a result. Due to its simplicity and exploitability, Rageguy has been proven popular thus being evolved into a comic series now known as Rage Comics.

Origin
The first instance of Rageguy came in 2008 on the 4chan “Random” (/b/) imageboard. The image consisted of a 4-pane comic made in MS Paint portraying the “toilet splashback” experience[1]. The first three panes described the incidence and in the fourth pane, a drawing of Rageguy screaming appeared with a caption saying “FFFFFFUUUUUUUUUU-” on the right of the face in red letters.

After the first Rageguy instance, other derivatives began to appear. The format of the comics remained, for the most part, the same, with the rage-inducing instance being described in the first three panes and the Rageguy face screaming on the fourth. The success of Rageguy soon made it possible for other characters to appear for other reactions and emotions, allowing the creation of what are now referred to as Rage Comics. These comics are featured on a popular subreddit called “FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUU” (also known as “F7U12”) which is a reference of the red caption on the last pane.

I always am the Forever Alone guy.

I always have the Megusta face when I have no FB messages :megusta:
