Cringeworthy Signs Someone Is Trying Too Hard To Look Tough

Trying too hard to look tough is for middle schoolers. By all means, express yourself, but if you constantly talk about how you "could totally beat someone up if you really wanted to but don't right now" isn't exactly the quickest way to earn people's respect. We've all known a few people like this. Maybe we've even acted like this in the past and have since realized it's not really worth it. The fine people of r/AskReddit shared some examples of what they perceive to be people trying to look tough and intimidating — but only giving off the vibes that they really just aren't. From dudes at a bar saying they want to fight but not actually doing it to basically anyone who uses the Joker as a profile picture on the internet, these kinds of people are pretty cringeworthy.
