embarrassing

We all get comfortable in relationships and say some cringe things in jest, but some people take it wayyy too far. A distraught woman asked Reddit if she was the asshole for leaving her husband in the grocery store after he quite literally acted like a toddler and demanded ice cream in a baby voice. OP u/smallslicedskin further explained that this wasn't an isolated incident. Apparently, her husband had been incessantly using meme-speak like 'doggo,' 'pupper,' 'chicky nuggies,' and 'birb' for months. The bizarre affectation that had been driving OP bonkers caused her to finally snap in the grocery store and subsequently turn to Reddit for help. Scroll down for her story and some of the best responses in the thread. 

Some people never learn that if they say something stupid on the internet, chances are someone out there is going to destroy them with words, screenshot the exchange, and then immortalize that moment forever on Reddit. Not gonna lie, we love to see it. Who doesn't enjoy coming across a clever comment or comeback so spicy that you feel the urge to virtually high-flve the OP?

We've got a quality batch of witty retorts to stupid statements and those funny comments that get tucked away in long threads. 

It's hard to define what exactly makes something cringe. It's really a vibe. It's the embarrassing images and comments people post on the internet without irony that inspire others to log off. It's something that makes you feel ashamed just for having witnessed its awkwardness. So why do we subject ourselves to this pain? Well, because it's funny. If you're in a masochistic mood, we've got a whole bunch of cringe content for you to wince through. To be fair, a few of these specimens from r/cringepics and r/cringetopia are cringe in a self-aware way, which is actually kinda based.

Reddit's got a lot of things going for it. At its best, it's a place for people to share their interests and support one another. At its worst? A hellhole of bad political takes, creepy anime obsession, and cringey idiocy. Twitter's @AwfulReddit painstakingly collects these yucky moments and presents them in a way that masochistic lovers of schadenfreude can easily enjoy. We've put some of their latest and greatest "yikes" offerings for quick enjoyment - but be sure to follow if you dig the pain. As long as Reddit exists, we're sure they'll be churning out the funny.

Some things change. People grow older, they grow apart. Pandemics ravage the globe. Natural disasters become more frequent. People move. But one thing stays the same. One thing remains constant: the absolute joy  we feel while laughing at other people's stupidity. And there's a whole lot of it right here.

For every fool with a stupid statement, there's a savage ready to destroy them with witty words. We love seeing an air-brained comment get absolutely burned on the internet and we've got it all covered in this list (2020 style) with anti-vaxxer karens, facepalm-worthy gaffs, and redditors roasting redditors. Enjoy these screenshots that immortalized nineteen mortifying moments forever. 

Life is full of awkward moments, so there's no need to go and embarrass yourself for no reason. But these people didn't get the memo, so they went ahead and did it anyway, and got shamed on the internet ruthlessly. Check out the cringe-worthy awkward moments these individuals got themselves into, which ended up benefiting you!

Humans aren't perfect. We make mistakes. We goof. And sometimes our gullible natures get the best of us. Redditor u/Vinyl_BunBuns provided us with ample proof of this gullibility yesterday with an especially entertaining r/AskReddit thread. They asked followers of the page to share the absolute dumbest things people have believed. And while some of the examples are a testament to pranksters and impressionable child-minds, others are a wonderful reminder that kids (and adults) have absolutely incredible imaginations. 

Sometimes strange things happen that just plain old defy people's expectations, and the result is a steady round of applause. These stories might just put a grin on your face, and make you feel better about any moments you've had where you did something silly, and everyone around you proceeded to clap about it. I mean, hey, just take the applause and roll with it. 

Some people take a long bath or treat themselves to a pastry when they're feeling low. Maybe they talk to a friend who can make them smile. But when we're feeling depressed or insecure, our favorite pastime is observing stupid people do what they do best: inflate our egos with their embarrassing antics. There's nothing quite as uplifting as seeing people f*ck up worse than we do on a day-to-day basis. And we've got a whole lot of that stupid for you to scroll through right here.

Someone on /r/AskReddit asked people to tell their most embarrassing instances of stupidity and absent-mindedness, and boy did the people deliver. Lucky for you, we've gathered some of those stories below! Check out Fail Blog for tons more fails!
