~ A common caption on Trollface images. |
The Trollface is an insanely popular rage comic-based meme. It mainly tells when someone is about to do something bad, provoke a person or other things related to being provocative and getting rises out of other people.
Background[]
Trollface is a rage comic character always wearing a mischievous smile that is meant to represent the facial expression of an Internet troller.
Commonly used to portray a character as a troll in rage comics, or alternatively, to identify oneself or another participant as such in online discussions. The troll face is very popular among gamers, and is very commonly used in the game, Minecraft. There is also troll song based on the troll face, as well as many flash games.
The Troll Face meme is also used in almost every derp video, or anything related. This rage face is arguably the most popular rageface, tied with Me Gusta.
Origin[]
The earliest sighting of the meme was under the name of "Coolface" instead of "Trollface" in January 2007. The Trollface was originally drawn by Tyler_mon, an Oakland-based artist known by his deviantART[1]handle Whynne, as part of an MS Paint webcomic about the pointless nature of trolling on a video game forum. The comic was uploaded to deviantART on September 19th, 2008. Before the meme was made, there was a sketch of a disturbing smiled character that looked very similar to Mighty Mouse named Rape Rodent, who made an emotion the same way that Trollface had done. Even though the meme of the Rape Rodent was also created by Carlos Ramiez before he was posted online, and after the Trollface gained and succeeded a lot of popularity after him, then the DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) gave them a copyright complaint regarding the Meme Run game before it was banned about him making the idea of possibly Rape Rodent after Trollface. The DMCA thought that he made the meme after the Trollface, but he had remade a sketch of the Rape Rodent before his meme of the Trollface was succeeded. Soon after, the meme became very popular, and Rage Comics has been making many comics with the meme in it. And, since then, it has been appearing in numerous popular YouTube videos and even on MemeGenerator.com (now known as KnowYourMeme.com) as well.
History[]
The character was first drawn by a man named Carlos Ramirez on Microsoft Paint in 2008. It was based on a drawing of superhero Mighty Mouse dubbed “rape rodent” and then uploaded to the internet. The character would become a character in the Rage Comics and quickly becoming popular. The character was depicted as a trickster as he would Troll the other characters in the comics, or his imagery was used to troll other people on the internet. The character started to become mainstream even him becoming the main character of an official Wii U game. Over time the character lost traction and would usually be used in Rage Comics although he would not be as popular. But in the late 2010s, memes started being made featuring the character covering himself in oil to fly. The meme although started to become darker and scarier as the memes would begin to have the final panel of the comic to be something horrific. A little bit later a meme featuring Troll Face released. In the meme, Troll Face was darker and scarier than before and looked like something you would see in a horror movie. This imagery of the character hit its peak with the “Ruler of Everything” meme. In the meme, it would show clips of troll face along with the song Ruler of Everything. The song itself was very dark so many of the clips shown of troll face where dark and made people question the true intentions of the character.
Misdeeds[]
The Race Comic comics had the Trollface do many misdeeds these would usually be tricking people. How many of the comics would go is that one of the Rage Comic characters would be tricked by the Trollface making the character who got trolled turn into the Race Face character and say the Rage Faces catchphrase “FUUUUUUUUUUUUU-”. The characters face would also be used as a troll link in which you would tell someone that the link that you have leads to something rare although it would just be a picture of the Troll Face. In later surreal and dark comics of recent times, the Trollface would seem darker and would maybe even be seen murdering another person.
