What does the “Computer Reaction Faces” meme mean?

Where does the “Computer Reaction Faces” meme come from?
The exact creator of the first face remains unknown. The earliest identified trace is the *Long Neck Reaction Guy*, appearing around 2009 on 4chan's /v/ board during discussions about controversial games like *Katawa Shoujo*. However, this attribution lacks solid confirmation. The format structured itself on March 28, 2010, on the /a/ (Anime & Manga) subforum. A user shared a blank model image: a desk with a monitor, inviting the community to draw their own reactions. This open base allowed for creative explosion. The term now refers to any GIF or drawing showing a person reacting to a screen. On Reddit, popularity grew in 2011, with notable posts on r/funny on April 5 and June 26, cementing the format as a standard for online visual communication.
