About r/cursedcomments
In its own words:
The subreddit for comments that strike the reader into oblivion. Upon seeing a cursed comment, your first reaction should be along the lines of “What the F$k 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.
