About

Triggered Comics are multi-pane comics in which various people and characters are depicted as being upset or offended by viewing something trivial or innocuous.

Origin

On November 6th, 2013, a photograph of Center for Inquiry director Melody Hensley was uploaded to Getty Images.[1] On April 17th, 2014, The Daily Mail[2] published an article about Hensley claiming she has post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) after being harassed by "Twitter trolls," which included the Getty Images photo (shown below, left). In the weeks after the article was published, an image macro of Hensley with the word "Triggered" mockingly written beneath began circulating online (shown below, right).
