About

It’s Something is a rage comic character that is used to express resignation when faced with an outcome of a situation that is less than ideal, but not entirely unfavorable.

Origin

According to Cuanto Cabrón’s explanation of the memes origin, the stick figure character was created by the now-defunct Tumblr blogger rcdb sometime in 2010. Although the original post has since been removed, it was reuploaded to Cuánto Cabrón on December 13th, 2010. Titled “Algo es algo” (“That’s Something”), the comic depicts a contestant on the game show Pasapalabra (“Spread the Word”) named Fernando who learns in the first panel that he has lost his winnings. In the second panel, the announcer is shown saying “But at least you get…,” which is revealed to be a board game version of Pasapalabra in the third panel. The rage character is shown in the final panel to partially convey Fernando’s disappointment with his own loss, but also a sense of optimism in that he at least won some sort of physical prize. As of February 2013, the comic has more than 2,600 upvotes on Cuánto Cabrón.
