Generally, we don’t like feeling uncomfortable. Whether it’s physical discomfort like sitting in a back-breaking chair or emotional annoyance of having to listen to a drunk toast by the bride’s uncle at a wedding, many of us would rather avoid these types of experiences. However, when it comes to cringe, there’s something about it that we find fascinating.

Huge contributors to second-hand embarrassment online are oversharers. Nowadays, some people post first and then think, and that often leads to awkwardness for everybody. Bored Panda has collected some of the most cringy posts where people clearly couldn’t read the room and made things awkward.

    How is it that a person visiting or living in another country hasn't FIRST read up on the country and its culture, people, running water facilities... It would save them from the awful confusion they experience from their ignorance.

    No, it doesn't. We all had a meeting without you. We decided that the attention that Star Wars gets on May 4th is just too intense, so we need to take away an arbitrary day. The vote wasn't unanimous, but there was enough of a majority to determine that we would have to sacrifice May 16th. Your birthday is now officially Feb 29th, with the leap year babies.

    Actually, it is about food shopping. It’s about her planning all the meals for the week for the family. It’s about her budgeting. She’ll also do most of the cooking. She’s probably doing this during her lunch break or between shifts. Yes, where are all the men indeed?
