50 People Who’ve Hit New Levels Of Cringe And Got Posted In The ‘Cringetopia’ Online Group
Watching cringey stuff is painful. Our eyes are running away from it, our gut is repulsed, maybe even our muscles are involuntarily contracting. But we can't help it. Teens congratulating their classmates because they are black, a woman licking a toilet bowl in hopes of starting the 'coronavirus challenge'... For some reason, we need to see how these things play out. Even if our body is refusing to allow it.
The subreddit r/Cringetopia is a gold mine for this type of content. With 1.1 million active members constantly sharing some of the cringiest things they can find on the Internet, it's just getting bigger and bigger, too. Continue scrolling and check out what they have collected so far!

Frieder Paulus, a psychologist at the Lübeck University in Germany, told Quartz that embarrassment is social: it tells us when we have violated a social norm and makes us feel bad for doing so. But it's not clear why exactly we have the capacity to cringe or as scientists call it, feel vicarious embarrassment.
We feel others' embarrassment because we are empathetic—we imagine how someone else thinks and feels because it determines how we treat others and cooperate with one another. Feeling second-hand embarrassment might be just a byproduct of a more important trait, much like how the belly button is a symbol of the umbilical cord.

Probably just too old for Tiktok. A lot of the crazy seems to come from there.

And where they get the money for unnecessary crap like teeth shaving

having had a crown in recently, there is no way in hell I'd want to do this to all my teeth. I'm in my 40's and my tooth needed the crown. It wasn't a choice!
Likewise! (Apart from being in my 40s). My tooth was in danger of cracking in half if I didn't get it done and dentist visits in Denmark are bloody expensive 😬

Isn´t this done for crowns or veneers? Could just be a in-between picture. I want to be hopeful.
"People are grinding their uneven teeth down with nail files and uploading the videos to the app" :S

Hmm...maybe I will shave down my leg bones. I'll walk on stumps. It will be lit.
They do that before putting veneers on I believe...

Ewww...This is why I don't have time tok. I may be young but I'm not an idiot.
This is what they do before having your veneers bonded on :)
Oh wow tiktok is so stupid I have no idea why my friends are obsessed with it
Hold up so they think shaving their teeth down le that one girl from. The hu get games is cool? I mean sure but yikes
Whoa wait, is this realyl a thing ? I actually look at the funny videos on Tiktok a good deal and havent come across this one yet. OR is it just a one off among a group of select morons?
When i was 13 i hit my head on the ground an one of my front teeth got damaged at the top. So i took a nail file and made it even again. To this day i think this was one of the most idiotic things i ever did. Not anymore..
I did the same thing. Someone threw a lighter at me to get my attention (many years ago in high school) and it hit my canine tooth and chipped it and I used a nail file to fix it instead of waiting to go to the dentist. I should have just waited. It looks fine but it was just a dumb thing to do.

When did this become a thing? I thought planking was bad, but this is a whole new level of stupidity!
Why is this a thing? And are Dentists so hard up for money that they would do this?
Their parents must be real proud of the money they have spent so their kids can have nice healthy teeth
That's a joke right? Please tell me people aren't actually shaving their teeth! Why would anyone do that? What is the point?
It's most likely the teeth disolving from purging, my ex had the same.
That can't be right!! These look like pictures of 4-5 year old's mouths that have been photoshopped onto an adult head
Who filed them ? Must have been painful and messy..and permanent..
Meanwhile I'm celebrating the first week of 2021 with a root canal. I'm even happier now that I've never been on TikTok.
It brings me joy that they are doing this to themselves. Keeping dentists in business. Please, continue.
Did they do Biology in school?! How bloody stupid do you have to be?!
This reminds me of when your accidentally overpluck your eyebrows because you're bored and/or stupid and/or just didn't get that video tutorial quite right. And then you go back to school and people laugh at you and you feel like an idiot and your best friend and your mom still laugh about it for the next 20 years. EXCEPT... unlike eyebrows, teeth don't grow back.
Why in the actual f**k would anyone want to do this? God this generation is dumb.
don't call the whole generation stupid for a few idiots, at least try to list more reasons than stupid people on tik tok
