The
culture started on the Internet of making fun of people and/or insulting them by calling them "
cringy" or "
cringe" for doing something which doesn't harm or somehow insult anyone nor anything.
(The bad kind of)
Edgy 13-year-olds calling people cringy (their
holy grail of insults) because of something they enjoy. They got the word "cringy" from
LeafyisHere and often use it to feel better about themselves since most of them have
crippling depression because of their lack of emotional development or some other insecurity.
I'm so tired of seeing cringe culture on my
dash.
Nigga, just let people do what makes them happy; cringe culture's
dead.
