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.

He finally found a mate and was able to produce offspring shortly before his death.
I Feel Pain
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.
Ouch
Or perhaps it's because he's a Nice Guy™ who feels entitled to sex for showing basic decency?
Man Tries To Get Two Lesbians To Marry Him And His Homie
Bad women for marrying for love! Thankfully there are these “able-bodied men” waiting in the wings who are willing to make you their “pretty wives.” *cringe*

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.
Unexpected Ending 😔
Dude, Take The Hint
Over-Compensating
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!"
I think we all know what he's shoving down his throat in secret, usually behind the dumpsters out the back of a 7-11.
Load More Replies...Think of how much range his truck loses with all those flags on it. Might as well be dragging a parachute.
I never thought of that before. Thank you! This brings me great joy, at these times of gas prices 😂
Load More Replies...And gets upset over non white actors and women in movies and tv, because that's political correctness or something.
Load More Replies...Ah, well, he has the most flags, so he must be right (far right) about everything.
I count one flag that looks like it is as it is supposed to be and 5, maybe 6, that desecration the flag. Reminds me of one of these asshats I saw close to home. He had a decent sized American flag hanging off the back of his jeep during the winter and it was absolutely filthy.
That's what burns me up. They scream about disrespecting the flag, then fly it on a truck in the rain until it's ragged or desecrate it by superimposing a cult leader's face on it. It's disgusting. Yet they think they're the 'patriots'.
Load More Replies...I think he's trying to tell me something... I'm just not sure what it is.
That's because he couldn't explain it either. He just like flags
Load More Replies...If your candidate didn’t win the election, it’s probably because you didn’t have enough flags on your truck
So glad something like this is illegal in the UK. It would be classed as dangerous and not road legal.
Dear Every Other Culture - Please have pity on the 50% being held hostage by these clowns.
Look at the side of the truck. It's a business that makes flags. I may not be down with the types of flags it's flying, but it's fair for them to advertise their goods.
I would love every one of these MAGAts to know that they are all dishonoring the flag they claim to love. Learn the US flag code dummies https://www.military.com/flag-day/us-flag-code.html/amp
In Australia, I am pretty sure that would be illegal.
Load More Replies...Tell me you own 453 different MAGA hats without telling me you own 453 different MAGA hats.
What state does this fool live in? I believe in my state every state trooper and local police would have pulled this nut job over for causing a major distraction with his flag truck!
How can anyone see the light when they are behind him? His truck is a hazard and a distraction and that's before you account for any of his messages.
Big truck, big ego, BUTTTTTT- you know where I'm going with this
This was for a Trump rally. Thankfully, nuts rarely fly their colors so openly over here, because the auto repair costs that follow tend to be extra.
literal moron who should be forced to have a vesectomy so he won't contaminate this world with his stokes clan brood!
Because of increased drag, he has to stop for gas every couple of blocks
To be fair, I think this picture is from that Freedom Convoy that rolled through US and Canada over a year ago.
4 yrs ago ny family moved from MI to GA and yes I can confirm these things do actually exist 😅
You just know this is the same kind of person who falls apart whenever they see a gay pride flag because they're sick of "agenda pushing."
Trumpers are some of the worst people in the world. S**t, theyre not even people, theyre monsters!
The idiotic irony in flying both the American flag and the Confederate battle flag...I have seen other versions that changed the colors, like to the colors of the Jamaican flag or the Pan-African colors...I would seriously consider changing this idiot's flag to one of those, just to see how long it took for him to notice.
I am a conservative American and I HATE the thin blue line flag. Any flag that is desecrated for a political view is wrong.
If it not being shoved down are throats there slapping us in the face with it or trying to make us bend over backwards.....should i go on ..lol
Digging deeper: this guy designed and built this truck when his son joined the marines 14 years ago. At least there’s a good story behind it and not just all far right flags. 🤷🏼♂️ https://www.gofundme.com/f/Americas-Flag-Truck
And he's driving a Honda...not exactly known as an all American truck...
He just needs to find a low clearance overpass. Hopefully one with a camera so he can be fined for structural damage.
A guy with a similar flag setup drove around the voting site near my house in the recent US election. BOO DAVID BANKERT!!
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.
Yeah No S**t
This Is From A Meme Group I’m In. We’re All There To Share And Laugh And This Guy Shows Up
Sadge
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.

Yikes. I hope the gf runs for the hills. This guy sounds scary controlling.

If the guy took a picture of the delivery and fills out the form saying that the client was his/her ex, it might go the reverse with doordash suspending the ex's ability to use the app. LOL

Do none of these people understand that sex is not the main purpose of life?
Aaaaaaand every one of these posts is yet another reason that if anything ever happens to my husband, I will just be single forever. Not even worth it. Nope.
Ditto. Mind you, I'm 78 so it's very unlikely I'd have to worry about being hit on. 😊
Load More Replies...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
I'm AroAce, but I sorta understand a few* of these. The rest are just... disgusting...
Load More Replies...My faith in just existence itself demands most of those incels turn out to be twelve year old boys. Even my capacity to be disappointed by people just can't take that many adults acting....that.
