Memes can get beyond bizarre. So much so that even the most seasoned internet veterans can be left confused, not just amused. We’ve collected some of the most ‘cursed’ images, as shared on the @cursed.pic Instagram account, to give you a taste of what that’s like. Ready for some weirdness? Let’s go. But make sure you grab some holy water and Unsee Juice—you’ve been warned..! Cursed content, often seen as the complete opposite of ‘blessed’ memes, generally depicts somewhat disturbing things. These pics are, more often than not, low-quality, which adds to the eerie atmosphere. Imagine seeing something like this in between people’s picture-perfect vacation and wedding snapshots. It’s something that grabs your attention and makes you wonder what the ever-loving heck is going on. It’s this same lack of context that pushes other social media users away. They prefer their memes to be simple, clear, and with a couple of lines of funny and relatable text. With people’s sense of humor changing and evolving with every new generation, you can expect a lot more weirdness in the future. There’s a certain macabre fascination at play here. And if you’re skeptical, consider how many of your friends enjoy true crime shows and podcasts, or horror movies. It’s the same logic. There needs to be something about the pic that stands out and resonates with the viewer. Even a short comment left by a curator can help the content creator connect with their audience.
