30 Cringy And Sad Moments That Will Forever Live As Screenshots On The Internet (New Pics)
Life is a tough nut to crack, and no matter how much we want it to be easy, fun, and fair (to us!), the truth is that’s not always the case. Let's face it – humans are notorious embarrassment (and secondhand embarrassment) machines that, time to time, end up in the weirdest, most questionable and seriously cringey situations.
Some of those moments end up in this corner of Reddit that reminds us all, even the most successful human specimens, that we are… just hoomans. “Sad Cringe” describes itself as “a place for awkward or embarrassing situations that also make you feel sad,” and from its 1.3M members, you can see that people are clearly living for this kind of content.
Below we selected a new batch of the sad cringe moments shared on the group, and after you’re done, make sure to check out our previous features with more sad cringe posts here, here, and here.

F's In The Chat For Poor Jeremy
Mad Dragon 3 years ago
He finally found a mate and was able to produce offspring shortly before his death.
Nicola Roberts 3 years ago
Thank you Mad Dragon, I'm not going to see if I can verify this. I'm just going to take your word for it and be happier for your comment.

Perhaps it might have been more clever to only put one other snail in with Jeremy at a time? I mean, I'm not a top scientist or anything, but...

Aww poor Jeremy. At least he he was able to find a mate and continue his legacy shortly before dath.
Ras Radders 2 years ago
"Jeremy" later mated with one of the two snails and produced 56 offspring, which all had right-coiled shells. Most land snails are hermaphrodites, and have both male and female reproductive organs, so "Jeremy" and the other snails weren't either he or a she. "Jeremy" was named after Jeremy Corbin, a UK politician. Source : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeremy_(snail)

So, highly paid scientist spent endless time trying to help one snail fork? I'd like to see the grant description.

Is jeremy that snail that haunts you wherever you are and that tries to k**l you?
rodger coghlan 3 years ago
Snails are hermaphroditic and can make each other pregnant. They have a dart-like appendage that they shoot at their lover - there is a South American sea snail that has repurposed the dart to poison fish for their meal

Any Other Caption And I Wouldn't Have Thought This Was A Sad Cringe Moment
You called your teacher “mom.” Again. You slipped and fell at work in the middle of an important meeting. You… put your embarrassing scenario in and you will feel that heat wave coming on your cheeks, encompassing your heart, challenging your self-image, and shaking your dignity to its very core. It’s incredible how much we react to these seemingly insignificant situations; it’s part of what makes us humans.
Embarrassment is best described as an emotion dictated by a disconnect between how we feel we should respond or act in public and how we actually respond or act. We are most likely to be embarrassed when we believe we have not lived up to what society asks of us or when we are on the receiving end of undesired attention.

Man Tries To Get Two Lesbians To Marry Him And His Homie

My Friends Daughter Just Died ... Giveaway Time!!
Emma Pitkin 3 years ago
Humanity has no f*cking hope, what is wrong with people. I hope her grieving friend cut her off like a sh!t
Sometimes, however, when these unfortunate and unpleasant situations multiply, you feel like the whole world is against you. In these moments, resilience and positivity are key, but these are skills many people still have to learn.
“There are days, weeks, months and even years when it seems like everything possible goes wrong. In my practice, sometimes my clients experience this, and we wind up joking that they are like Job, from the Old Testament,” Lise Deguire, a clinical psychologist and the author of multi-award winning book “Flashback Girl: Lessons on Resilience from a Burn Survivor” told Bored Panda.

Over-Compensating
Luke Branwen 3 years ago
This guy: "I would respect those EL GEE BEE TEES if they didn't make it their entire personality and stopped shoving it down my throat!"
And while sometimes life is like that, the good news is that there are ways to cope. “Maintaining a sense of humor is key, as well as maintaining a sense of perspective. Even many truly unfortunate people still have blessings in their lives,” Deguire explained.
Moreover, when we are miserable, we tend to focus repetitively on what has gone wrong. However, Deguire argues that it will improve your mood to turn your attention to what you do have. “Also, remember that life goes on. You won't always be unfortunate; it's a phase,” she added.

This is a guy in pain, and doesn't realize he's cringing everyone as a result. Actually sad, hope he finds a date of goes for counseling to realize why women are running away from him.

Having said that, the clinical psychologist agreed that it can certainly seem that some people are much unluckier than others. “Life can be random, and tragedies can happen to anyone, anywhere, at any time. Still, we can make choices to improve our ‘luck,’” she said.
We can all get back control by choosing supportive friends, making time for the people we love, saving extra money for the future, and eating healthy foods... “all these are examples of ways we can improve our lives.”In the long run, it can seem like we are lucky to have good relationships, savings, and good health, but Deguire points out that it’s probably because we did little things to help us attain these blessings.

Okay, I'm kind of on the line with this one here. (Not that I like Hooters because there isn't an opposite chain restaurant so it feels unfair). But Hooters is... exactly as they described. All men I know that go to a Hooters go to look at and be flirted with by the scantily dressed ladies. It's their entire business model. If they're actively making out with their boyfriends at work *in general* that's highly unprofessional. Let alone somewhere they're supposed to be on display (as icky as that is, if they choose to work there they know what they're doing & that's fine).

Until the last 2 sentences I was like... sure, your world was ripped away at the age of 14, and you can't be expected to be committed to a relationship that began in this desperate situation, when you were a kid. But then she wants "somebody in my own class," and it's like, well, you're f****d, this guy is way too high class for you, honey, and so is most everyone else....

Even worse, if the guy ends up spending that much on a sex doll, has "sex" with it, and sinks further into despair and loneliness after what I can only imagine would be an ultimately embarrassing experience. That $ would be better spent on therapy. Or uh... anything else, probably.

As a demiromantic person, I understand some of these (not all, a ton of these are batsh*t insane). Human beings often feel a strong need for connection to people and when you don’t have that be it sexual, romantic, or platonic, it can lead to a lot of these sad desperate moments
