You...What Have You Done? is a rage comic face drawn by DeviantArt user peteypiranha128 in July 2011, showing a frowning stick figure crouching in shadow. The image jumped to Reddit's f7u12 the same day and became a go-to rage comic panel for comics about disappointment and quiet contempt.

Overview

You...What Have You Done? is a stick figure drawn in the rage comic tradition, posed crouching low with its head down and a flat, disappointed frown1. The character is paired with the caption "You… what have you done?" and gets dropped into the final panel of a comic as the reaction to someone else's small-scale offense5.

The face works as a quiet contempt beat rather than an explosive rage like FFFFFUUUU. Comics using it tend to cover low-stakes betrayals: a parent flipping on the bedroom lights, a sibling tossing out old collectibles, a classmate mooching gum. Early comics on r/fffffffuuuuuuuuuuuu set that register, with the face appearing at the moment the narrator realizes what the other person did24.

On July 13th, 2011, DeviantArt user peteypiranha128 uploaded the original illustration under the title "What Have You Done Face"1. The piece shows a crouching stick figure in shadow with the caption "You… what have you done?" and picked up more than 66,000 views, 1,140 downloads and 100 favorites over its first two years on the site5.

The same day, Redditor kawaiipiranha, posting the same image, submitted it to r/fffffffuuuuuuuuuuuu (f7u12) under the title "my attempt at a rage face," where it drew over 3,500 upvotes before archiving2.

How It Spread

Within hours of the face hitting f7u12, kawaiipiranha followed up with a comic using it, in which a woman throws out a man's Pokémon cards and gets hit with the "you… what have you done?" reaction in the final panel. That comic cleared 1,000 upvotes before being archived3. Later that same day, Redditor Jandklo posted a different f7u12 comic built around the face, in which a mother abruptly flips on the lights in her son's room, pulling in more than 2,500 upvotes4.

The face stuck around on Cheezburger's rage comic ecosystem for the next year. On March 3rd, 2012, Memebase user Blggmac4444 used it in a comic about classmates constantly bumming gum6. On August 9th, 2012, Cheezburger user Xyhpered used it as the punchline in a comic about a restaurant swapping Diet Pepsi for Coca-Cola7.

The face eventually crossed into physical merch. On May 10th, 2013, Etsy seller Valiantstudios listed a "what have you done" magnet pulled directly from the rage face design8.
