Schrödinger's Cringe

"Schrödinger's Cringe" (noun): A phenomenon analogous to the theoretical construct of Schrödinger's Cat, posited within the realm of human social comportment. It delineates a state of perplexing ambiguity wherein the perception of one's own behavior as cringeworthy or socially acceptable remains undetermined until subjected to external observation. This condition engenders a profound existential quandary, wherein individuals find themselves suspended betwixt the poles of approbation and derision, unable to definitively ascertain their social standing or comportment. Thus, akin to the paradoxical ruminations of yore, "Schrödinger's Cringe" illuminates the intricate interplay between subjective self-perception and societal evaluation in the annals of human interaction.
"In navigating the soirées of high society, the gentleman found himself ensnared by the enigma of 'Schrödinger's Cringe,' unsure whether his witty repartee would be hailed as charming or condemned as gauche until the quizzical glances of his peers rendered their judgment."

Cringe Comedy

Improv or comedy sketches that make you cringe. Tim Robinson's "I Think You Should Leave", or Larry David's "Curb Your Enthusiasm" are two examples.
