50 People Who’ve Hit New Levels Of Cringe And Got Posted In The ‘Cringetopia’ Online Group (New Pics)
Interview
Trust me, cringe is addictive. Once you cringe over [insert a wish-wash subject of debate] or the anti-vaxxers and get that sweet aftertaste from the sheer absurdity, you want a second hit. ‘Cause cringe is real and everyone loves it, from me, you, to 1.2 million members of the “Cringetopia” subreddit.
And there’s an infinite source of things to recoil from in laughter and embarrassment because the world, like the people in it, and like the subreddit itself, is colorful. As the community’s description says: “In this moment, I am euphoric. Not because of any phony god's blessing. But because I am enlightened by my intelligence.” You may even get a philosophical drift on your way to the cringe journey.
So get ready to swim in the ocean of biased opinions, naive beliefs, less than logical statements, and anything in between. Be sure to upvote the cringiest posts down below and check out part 1 of this post.

Gatekeeping... A Language?
To find out more about this insanely popular community, Bored Panda reached out to the “Cringetopia” subreddit's moderator Fjallmadur, who was happy to share some insights.
“We started this subreddit to break away from the politics and hate that CringeAnarchy was becoming saturated with. /u/IAmMrPositive founded this subreddit and brought along me and a few other CringeAnarchy moderators who were tired of the mess that place had become,” the moderator recalled.
Fjallmadur added: “He basically made it a full-time job promoting this place in relevant subreddits and building this community from the ground up while telling people that this subreddit was going to be a place for everyone to come together, put politics aside, and just cringe at the people doing really weird and awkward stuff that they post online.” Today, it has turned into the one of the most regularly active subreddits on the entire site.

Do people not realise that “skin” is literally the wrapping paper of your body. It’s nothing more than that. The pigmentation was decided by evolution as it it light or dark depending on what side of the world your ancestors lived given hotter countries have people with darker skin so the sun can’t burn them. Likewise colder countries people have lighter skin as the sun isn’t there often

When asked what the term “Cringetopia” refers to, the moderator explained that it’s exactly what it looks like, “an amalgamation of the words 'cringe' and 'utopia.'” Moreover, “It's a place where any cringe that doesn't break our relatively lax community rules or Reddit sitewide rules is allowed.”
The moderator of the community sees cringe as inherently subjective. “What makes one person cringe, another person may think is entirely normal,” he said and continued that “My take on it is that we've all done stupid stuff that we look back on and cringe about, and looking at these people is a good way to relive that feeling, even if it's not the exact situation that we've been in ourselves.”

Fjallmadur also added that “we laugh at those folks, feel second-hand embarrassment over what we see, and share it with others, but I think that it's ultimately a way for us to empathize with the people who are being featured on this subreddit.”
And although there are “some bad apples in the bunch,” according to the moderator, “we're not about bullying or spreading hate at all; it's all just for entertainment and understanding other people at the end of the day.”
Turns out, the subreddit has a bit of a bad rep from other communities because “they feel like we're bullying people,” but Fjallmadur stressed the fact that their community is exactly the opposite. “Our community is all-inclusive, as you can see from our wonderful mod team, and I feel like we do a pretty good job as a whole to enjoy the light-hearted picking while avoiding actually hurting anyone,” they concluded.

Female Dating Strategy Man... They're Calling This Fragile Masculinity, Not Knowing That He Was Knowingly Doing That To Make Fun Of His Own Height
Or, just like tall guy reporters and even women have to spread their legs to be around the same height as someone they are interviewing. It just looks better on Tv and doesn't distract from anything if the frame is centered
Seriously? The player was doing this to poke fun at his own height, or lack thereof.

This was a joke. That the reporter suggested. This is nothing to do with ego or masculinity. It was her idea. For funny.
The person posting this was clearly aware, since it says the same thing in the caption.

So a female wearing 8 inch heels to look tall is fine but when a man is doing that, then every body looses their mind huh
FDS is a horrible community. Is the worst combination of misandry, misogyny and entitlement. I dont get how it is not banned yet. Its the female version of mgotw

Female Dating Strategy is such a trash community, filled with sexism and internalised misogyny.
Ya'all know it was a joke right? He posted the pic on his Instagram "#ShortPeopleProbs but it's more like @kellimtennant problems!"
https://www.chicagotribune.com/columns/heidi-stevens/ct-life-stevens-tuesday-kike-hernandez-bucket-masulinity-0710-story.html Just a prank. I always laugh so hard when people take pranks and satire seriously.
I mean, it is true that some guys are irrationally dislike women being tall because of their own fragile masculinity, but this is CLEARLY not one of those cases. These people need to do their research before they flip out smh
this guys name is kike hernandez and he does stuff like this all the time, he's just joking around. He's about 5'11 and she's 6'2 plus she's wearing heels. Kike is a prankster though, he wore a banana suit in the dugout when he was recovering from an injury and once tricked a coach into thinking he didn't speak english for month.
Haha, anyone can see he is the one looking like a idiot in this, haha glad he can laugh at himself, something we all should do.
In an extremely tall girl/woman (my dad was 6'7) and I think it's so funny, when boys/men talk to me, most stand up REALLY straight to make themselves look taller. I'm like, "bro! I don't care about your height! I don't look down on you mentally"😂
Sorry, this is a hoax. The reporter interviewing him is a friend. (The Dodgers are my boys, and Kike Hernandez was one of my favorite Dodgers. It's not an accurate representation.) https://www.pe.com/2018/08/18/kelli-tennant-on-the-uproar-over-the-photo-of-kike-hernandez-and-a-bucket/
He’s 5’11, she’s 6’2, he isn’t short per se, she is just very tall and at the end of the interview she said to him, ‘congratulations, get outta here shorty!’ It was definitely done as a joke
Believe this or not. I am a 5ft 11 woman. Quite a number of times I have been walking down a street and I hear footsteps behind me. I glance round. It is a man who is shorter than me. The man speeds up because men can't possibly walk slower than women. I speed up. The man speeds up. We end up speed walking down the road like something out of a Chaplin film. Poor dears!
My first b/f was an inch taller than I, he hated it on the odd occasion I wore heels
im 11 Y.O, and am already 5'6 sooooo that may be fun when im an adult. also my dad is 6'8 and my mom is tall too so im gonna be pretty tall. maybe that will be fun :) ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
he she wouldn't wear high heels, he probably would be at least as tall as her anyway
It might not have been his idea to stand on a bucket? I don't know.
True, that's why they should inform themselves before spouting off.

Not to mention the dude is clearly uncomfortable/not ok with it

The Baby Would Rather Be Deaf
I take issue with the idea of a baby's consent here. All decisions for a baby is against their knowledge and consent. No one consents to being born. That's not problematic, that's literally how babies work. If a toddler says they don't want to change diapers ever again, letting them decide that would be abuse. Just take care of babies and don't scar them and they'll be fine. Consent is a super important topic but it really means something else when it comes to babies.

Random thought: what happened to Krazy Kanuck? Haven't seen him comment for a while.
Or OGs like Hans, John L., etc if you go that far back. I still see a lot of our "popular" pandas out and about occasionally, but their comments are much less frequent. Part of it is probably just changes in their lives, but I feel like the more frequent argumentative/clickbait-y type posts have been large factors. I think in its' golden age BP was 99% pet/animal lists, comics, and art, which meant people had more opportunity to make funny and entertaining comments, but more recently it's been getting bogged down by political content and more "bad" stuff (eg more posts like "50 times people experienced evil neighbors" vs feel good stuff like "50 times strangers helped people"). Also a lot more beauty content, which isn't necessarily bad, but causes a lot of negativity for people with discussions about upsetting beauty standards. I find it kinda sad really, because our pandas are getting into more debates in the comments and we've lost a lot of the unity and good vibes :(
