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!

It’s Actually Quite Sophisticated Stuff
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.

Why do some people just spew garbage from their mouths about the things they do not know about? It's awful if a tornado drill image can be twisted to form such hate in people.

I can't believe this. What the actual f... I really hope this isn't true and just someone trying to stir some s**t.
I'm not sure that there was ever any other option than being a black teen, but congrats anyway Tyronhe and Danisha.
Check out the smiles on the 'congratulating' white girls faces. Do they actually think they're so superior that they have the right to judge skin color??? I'd say this is a serious backfire. WTF???
Hard to believe😱 but I think you did! This has to be the most disgusting post, that I have read in a really long time! SMH
Load More Replies...My high school never did anything quite so obvious, but there was an unspoken rule that every other year the homecoming queen had to be African American. Y'know, for diversity reasons.
Isn't that voted on ? Or have all the movies lied, and if voted on does that mean they just rig the outcome. So if you were black and won it would always be assumed it was not a win even if deserved, that is terrible.
Load More Replies...I'm so saddened by this. Black lives are not Trophies for the "ultra woke". This is Racism on steroids. Stop! Black lives are our friends, family, loved ones, etc. They are not objects to climb on to reach "Twitter Woke Status". We've really been backpedaling fast. This should scare the hell out of everyone because these incidents are more wide spread that a cringe post.
I didn't know that congratulating people for being a particular race was a thing. I really need to get out more.
Facial expressions read : really? White teens faces: wow we’re really making a difference to be proud of 🙄
This is really sad. The look on his face says it all. For f**k sake. I'm embarrassed to be white seeing this.
I can literally see the disappointment in the guy's eyes. (2nd one from the left)
And they look thrilled with the recognition. OMG. Please tell me this isn't true.
I'd say the lovely Alexandra is spouting sour grapes in a very racist way? Wild guess
Up voted for what I assume is sincere confusion. It's as if your all male workplace congratulated you on being female! Good job! Greatest female here! Not great worker, excellent job, or thanks for helping us all out. Just good job on your accident of birth. The condescension is strong here.

Teaching "abstinence-only" simply doesn't work. Teach the kids about safe and consensual sex and about birth control. If you really care about fewer children getting pregnant and requesting abortions, this is the only reasonable way to go. (Nothing wrong in abstinence as an idea, though.)

Nah, I'm with the second dude, this time. Not applauding him for the language but diminishing father's day because you don't have enough empathy to realize that just because your father was a w*nker doesn't mean there aren't many fathers to celebrate, seems like a worse offence.

I like elon musk made an appearance SEVERAL times during this article.
It literally went from cringy and somewhat wholesome fun to frikin sex, racist, and news related bullcrap. 41094728_6...c9feff.gif
The internet doesn't make people stupid, it just makes stupid people more visible.
I have said it before, and i will again...big companies need to start saying they will look at everything when hiring, they will see you eat a pod, lick a toilet, disrespect atrocities, be racist, homophobic etc and you will never get a job. They need to do it so that kids see and make better choices, because something is not working.
These people make me look like a genius. Shame so many are still in the gene pool. Now I can sleep the sleep of the just.
My friend's little dog got out right as we were finishing up a walk, came running up to my dog and I didn't realize he bit her in the nose. She had 11 pups so she just rolled him and scared the pee out of him (even though he tried to bite her again), looked really surprised when I was like "whoa!" Then I was so off-kilter that when my friend reached out her hand I F*****G SHOOK IT. I forgot she loaned me a coffee cup I was still holding. I now have to fake my death and move to Mongolia.
Ripley Dog - I enjoyed your post, though enjoyed isn't really the right words it's more schadenfraude XD (if it helps, off the top of my head, i regularly respond with "you too" when a shop person says "thanks for shopping at [example]" then scurry away. Or my son's favourite tale to reminisce over: when we were walking into the supermarket and the wind flipped my dress up [thank God I was wearing leggings so it wasn't as bad but still!])
