We might like some good, entertaining cringe on the screen (just think of The Office, The Rehearsal, and Borat), but we don't really like experiencing it in real life. In fact, 50% of Americans say they don't like being present for awkward situations, and 15% say they outright hate it.
Secondhand embarrassment is much more tolerable when we're far away from the situation. That's why here we have a compilation of people doing embarrassing and cringeworthy things so that you can scroll without having to feel like a turtle who wants to retract back into its shell. Laugh, wince, and cringe at these people's antics and be glad you don't have to experience them IRL.

I'm lucky enough to live in a house from the 50's or smth and me and my family have lived in it for 3 generations. we have renovated it so much over the years it could probably go for a hefty price, but we don't want to bc its a big part of our family history of my immigrant grandparents.
Even if it was a crack house in Detroit you'd still get $30k for it.
There are few things worse than embarrassment when you're a teenager. Wearing the clothes that grown-ups are wearing is cringe. Not knowing what "gyat" or "rizz" means is, like, so cringe. Listening to old dude rock 'n' roll is beyond cringe and embarrassing. All we want as teenagers is to fit in, to be like everyone else. And anything outside of that is, unfortunately, cringe.
As we age, we're less likely to think about whether how we act, how we dress, and what things we like are cringy or not. Research shows that older adults (at least 30 years and older, according to this study) are less likely to experience events that make them feel self-conscious. The older we get, it seems, the less we care about what others think of us.

Perhaps sometimes it's better to embrace the cringe and not think so much about what other people will think. Chanté Joseph writes for Vice that the fear of being cringy can even stop us from doing serious things that can be detrimental to our health. People are too embarrassed to go to the gynecologist to get tested, to attend prostate exams, and even buy condoms.
At the heart of the problem is our confidence. The less self-assured we are and the less self-esteem we have, the easier it is for us to feel embarrassed by almost anything. A person might do cringy things, but if they're confident in what they're saying or doing, we might not immediately label them as cringy. Fake it 'til you make it, essentially.

I once had a conversation with my friend's teenage daughter who told me that she wanted to go to Africa. I asked her where in Africa and she said, "Wherever they have the animals, like Zebrabway or someplace".
Probably doesn't help when the US government officials have a tendency to refer to the EU as "Europe" and vary rarely seem to talk about specific countries but just say "The Europeans" or "Europe" as if it's not a whole continent with different countries and governments.

Actual Post By A Congresswoman
That's nothing. Here's an actual post from The White House this weekend. To the tune of "Na na na na, na na na na, hey hey, goodbye", the video shows the "gang members" and "criminals" they proudly marched to a concentration camp ... sorry, jail, in El Salvador. Yeah, same group that included nearly 200 folks with NO criminal records of any kind (see last night's 60 Minutes report): https://x.com/WhiteHouse/status/1908679430546866475
When a person defends their "cringy" behavior earnestly, it's not really cringe. Long gone are the days when people were shamed for being a Star Wars nerd or playing Dungeons & Dragons. Nowadays, cringy behavior is more about people putting up a front, claiming they're cooler, better, or more intelligent than they actually are.

These are his adventures with his Replica girlfriend. I thought he was joking at first but I think he believes it's his real girlfriend.

Is that not what a woman looks like? I mean, she's animated, but she's intended to be an animated woman, yes? What are women supposed to look like? So I guess the next question would be, what is normal? Are you excluding this poor animated witch because she is animated, or a witch?

So he's still getting nursed at 3, she's guilt tripping him to continuing and hoping that he'll keep nursing for years. Somebody really needs to intervene here, she obviously has big issues and her son is will have too, if he hasn't already.
Yeah, this guilt tripping will not stop and will only get worse.
Load More Replies...... yes you will need that insurance money for all the therapy he will need.
I don't support this choice but I do recall how sad I was when my last child was weaned. It was hard. Has to be done, for everyone's sake, but it was sad and I felt a little peirce in my heart knowing that was it. So I feel for her, a bit. But parenting means doing what's best for the child and what she is doing is the opposite of that.
wow,why is he still nursing at 3 , that's really strange, hell probably still be nursing in h.s.before you go out on your date you gotta nurse my milkies hurt..
It is quite common in some cultures to be still nursing at 3. But the guilting part is weird.
Load More Replies...I met a woman who allowed her 3 or 4-year-old to continue to nurse. The kid would throw a fit when he wanted to 'suckle' and I could see her distress, yet, she would give in. She was genuinely a very sweet lady and she honestly thought she was doing a good thing for her son. It creeped me out. The movie, Grown Ups, makes fun of this.
In 2016, I briefly moved in with this gal I had known for years in order to help her out. Her son was about 10 or so at the time. I can't get into all the dysfunction I witnessed as it was hard to believe. Mutual friends had stories about her, but I just shrugged them off as people talk sh-it about each other all the time. One afternoon, ol' gal screamed for her kid to come get in bed with her. Kid jumps in bed. snuggles right up, grabs her tit and began licking her armpit. Now, think about the rest of the world and what "parents' do with and to their kids, especially in other cultures and religion-based cultures.
Load More Replies...The only reason you're nursing a freaking 3 yo is for YOU and NOT HIM. You need to let your milk dry up. He is gonna be talking to other little kids at some point and you're gonna have some explaining to do with the other parents so they can talk to their kids.
I kind of hope he talks in front of his kindergarten teachers. Emotionally manipulating a 3yo like that isn't something you should do as a parent.

As Mellisa Dahl, author of Cringeworthy: How to Make the Most of Uncomfortable Situations, told Elle UK, it's about how we want to be perceived. "It's when you can sense that the version of yourself you're trying to present to the world isn't really you. When there's this gap between who you want to be and how the world actually perceives you. That is where the cringe comes in."

Load More Replies...Hugging a tree or meditating to "send nature healing energy" is a nice experience for yourself, but doesn't actually do anything for nature. You could use the same time to do something that does actually help nature: learn a vegan recipe, search for a fun holiday place that you don't need to use a plane for, make 1 small energy conservation improvement in your home, go pick up some trash in the forest. That way you'd actually be helping nature in a real way.

As A Meat Eater, Am I The Only One Who Finds Anti-Vegetarian Humor Trite And Cringe Worthy?
I love meat as much as every carnivore, but c'mon, let people live their life however they want. No diet is a reason to show off.

I have my own food, it's okay! You can have some if you want, or not, whatever, it's all good!" Like that one comedian who explained that people get weird with him when he says he doesn't drink and compared it to mayonnaise: https://youtu.be/zk5KytymiUk?si=JBr-gYdKmeq0C2Bj

Girl At My School Can't Sing, Embarrassed Our School At Graduation, And Someone Decided To Try To Help Her Out
Too many years ago in a kid's choir the director asked me to sing quietly. When I got home I used my brother's tape recorder to record myself. After hearing myself sing I understood exactly what she meant. Now I only sing once in a while to annoy my wife.
How did they embarrass an entire graduation? That was a rude message to send. Did they vote for them to sing? I didn't vote for Trump so he can't embarrass me.
I sound like 3 cats having s e x on an old rusty car hood at 3 AM on a hot summer morning.
We do congregational singing at our church, and someone said this to a sweet elderly lady who loved to sing. After that day she never again opened her mouth during singing. Why can't people keep their stupid opinions to themselves and let others live their lives and be happy???!!
My elderly friend lost much of her hearing and lost much of her former ability to sing. She continued in choir because she enjoyed other members but she mouthed the words. She has since passed away and I hope she is singing in her eternal rest.
Load More Replies...If you want to sing, sing out loud. The idiots who can't accept your joy at singing can move out of earshot. Don't let the idiots in the world bring you down.
Unless you're on public transport in that case I don't care who you are just be quiet

Thought It Was A Joke Until I Saw The Picture
Being the most famous furry sounds like being the most famous pidgeon in the city park. It's there, it exists, but... nobody's life would be different if it didn't.
I have nothing against furrys, never known one and never met one. They never done anything against me so i don't understand why people hate on them so much.
as a furry, this guy is really trying to claim he's "unique" and a "pillar of the community" despite having the MOST stereotypical sona in the community.
Behold, the most stereotypical furry on the internet: rich, a "pillar of the community", a blue wolf, has been in the fandom for a decade, and thinks that they're so quirky and unique
This has "I'm the best charter boat captain you'll ever see!" vibes.

She didn't know who he was so couldn't contact him directly unless she did it on the spot when she saw him. Not sure I blame her for trying. He could have said he was in a relationship already though, instead of saying she's not his type. Maybe that's the cringe part.

I'd love to have one of you explain to me what the problem is with this mural. Is it because it shows a black man with cotton? Anyone care to take a guess if black cotton farmers are a thing still today (hint: yes they are)? Is the problem the Sam Cooke lyric - a famous black artist from the 1950s? I'd venture to guess that people are associating a black man standing by cotton with slavery, although nothing from the image or lyric suggests the painted man was intended as a slave and not just a cotton farmer. Knowing where this room is located would be key to discerning it's intent. If it's Mississippi? Definitely racist. If it's North Carolina, near Roanoke? BlackCotton is a huge and celebrated black-owned business there. And you'll never guess what they do.
