A cosplayer from New York City is being flooded with comments by angry trolls, gamers, and incels after she posted photos of herself dressed as the Joker at the now-iconic "Joker Stairs" in the Bronx. 

Cosplayer Veronica Rae posted the photos to her Facebook earlier this week, along with the caption:

I used to think my life was a tragedy, but now I realize, it’s a comedy. I whipped up a female Joker in about 2 days just so I could shoot on the iconic stairs!

Unfortunately, Rae's photos drew the wrong kind of attention as the post was quickly flooded with comments from some of the neckbeard-iest sections of the internet. Many of the comments used language common to the incel community.

For those of you who may not be up to speed on incel lingo, "femoid" is a slur used to refer to women as sexual objects and "coomer" is a term for someone who is addicted to jerkin' the ol' gherkin.

Honestly, some of these comments are so outlandish that we're genuinely left wondering if this was just people being funny, or if they actually meant it. Regardless, there were definitely plenty of people ready to defend Rae:

Rae, for her part, took the criticism in stride and responded with a cheeky (pun intended) photo of her in a Jar-Jar Binks mask.

Rae added the following caption:

I heard you all loud and clear. Is this better for you?
