Out of all types of cringe-worthy material, the "badass guy/girl" trope is one of the worst. Some people really feel the need to let the world know how much of a badass they are as they use guns/drugs/have tattoos/are anti-liberal or are just plain mean. However, such attempts at bad-assery are usually cringe-worthy rather than cool to all those around such people. Here, we made a list of all the laughable attempts at trying to appear cool and edgy. Prepare for some cringing, then scroll down below and leave a vote for those that made you laugh (or cringe).

    This is some of the worst text flow on a shirt I’ve seen. Why are so many of these clichéd American conservative attitude shirts full of s****y text flow and bad design? Too many different fonts and decorations around the text.

They were the most affable, relaxed, casual dudes. Not big guys, either. Why? Because they had to fit in in the civilian population every now and then. The Blackwater guys would strut around and brag----but that's another story.

    I think it’s more a matter of deciding who is a terrorist in the first place, and then you know that whole “due process” thing.
