Get the Cringemug. 
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.
