This series features a specific number of cursed connectors. It began with "Cursed Connectors #187", 2493: Dual USB-C, in July 2021. The numbers assigned to the cursed connector aren't sequential. Randall had already made a similar series, Bad Map Projections, which also uses a similar number system, with the first comic already beginning with a high number for the first bad projection, #107. Similar to this series, the second projection has a lower number than the first (#78). Presumably, the use of the term "cursed" takes inspiration from the widespread meme referring to "cursed images". A jab at all the different connectors in existence, and how they often break down, maybe because people try to jam them into the wrong sockets because they have so many different types. The connectors get a number which, if taken seriously, would mean there are at least 280 cursed connectors but probably more. So far, the following cursed connectors have appeared:
