If you remember those, you are now a depressed anxious wreck with a decimated attention span.
There definitely is nostalgia for rage comics but it’s more in a “I miss being that retarded” kind of way.
I really don’t like the current era of memes.
Wojacks > Rage faces
Rage faces were even kind of cringe at the time.
First off, Wojacks ⊂ Rage faces. Rage faces are a wider and more diverse set, that includes the original wojack (and all the wojacks by extension) so they offer more possibilities; both cringe and non-cringe. Beside, they were more often than wojacks used in comics with several pannels and characters. More wojacks are used in single pannels constituting reaction pics or criticisms of a type of people.
In a way, wojacks are the heirs to Rage Comics, but they’ve adapted to a web in which we consume memes more quickly and in greater amounts, hence why they’re suited to smaller templates.
I’m not entirely sure what meaning is intended but most of the characters in the top far predate Cartoon Network
For example: Flintstones: 1960; Cartoon Network 1992. We’re closer to the founding of Cartoon Network than Flintstones was
