Xok Emoji. The Xok accursed emoticon, with its menacing fangs, first appeared online in 2015. Like other modern caricatures, this “cursed” emoticon is a mash-up that borrows elements from various memes. Unlike the simpler “cursed” emoticon, this one has many levels, so you’ll need to be familiar with the previous meme it references to get the humor.

Whenever a protagonist in animation is going to break his sanity, the cameraman often cuts to a broad shot of their face. The animation fandom is credited with creating this meme. In terms of memes, this is how cursed sign makers work.
