Ever wondered why everyone is so addicted to a site with a scary little alien logo? No, we’re not talking about the green Android alien, but the one that can be seen in a site called Reddit.

Reddit.com is a social news website where users can submit and post links to share the latest happenings worldwide. It has different subcategories that can match people’s interests.

Reddit is now among the highly visited and most active social bookmarking sites not only in the US but all over the world. Aside from Facebook and Twitter, Reddit is now trending because of interesting news posted by users themselves.

Other than the usual categories and topics that can be read and seen on other sites, Reddit has a unique subcategory where everyone can post their own comic stories called Rage Comics.

Rage Comics are comic strips created by users to share their own stories, experiences, and even some hilarious thoughts. Instead of the usual way of sharing through posts, users create pictures and story lines with these rage faces. Indeed, creating rage comics can be really entertaining.

Readers and other redditors can judge their rage comics by either upvoting (similar to Facebook’s like button) or downvoting (opposite) their posts. The score will be based on the difference of their upvotes and downvotes. A good score can also mean a good Reddit standing.

Avid redditors have the same goal in posting rage comics – to increase their karma. Karma is the number that can be seen beside the username. It signifies how good the user has done for the reddit community. In short, users with more upvotes and less downvotes can have more karma.

Most rage comics are posted in a subcategory called F7u12 which is a short term for FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUU. This word is commonly seen in most rage comics to show agitation.

Because more and more users are creating these comics, different subcategories were created like r/skyrim, r/food, and more.
