A person who overuses the word ‘cringe’ to the point where it’s cringeworthy in and of itself. The irony is that they give up so much of their own time to mock all who fit their meaning of ‘cringe’. A pun on ‘cringe comps’, which tend to be their sad excuses for YouTube videos.

"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."

The increasingly prevalent phenomenon observed annually during the Eurovision Song Contest, characterized by an exquisite blend of baffling sartorial choices, questionable vocal performances, and lyrical masterpieces that defy all known laws of artistic merit. Often results in involuntary shudders, a profound appreciation for musical silence, and a sudden, inexplicable urge to move to a remote island with no internet access. Not to be confused with "camp" or "ironic enjoyment," as Eurovision Song Cringe is typically experienced despite one's best efforts to remain entertained.
