cringe therapy 

A self-help tactic used to remind an individual of how bad the individual's ex-partners were. Cringe therapy involves an individual staring at distasteful pictures of a particular ex-partner until the individual cringes (or expresses other negative reactions) and returns to more productive activity.

1: Dude, how'd you get over your breakup with Jeff so quickly?
2: He was a dick, bro. I forgot all the things I hated about him until I started cringe therapy.

cringe trash 

Cringe trash usually refers to a form of media in which the user unknowingly displays poor social skills, a complete lack of shame, and completely misunderstands their following. This mentality is usually accompanied by a form of personality disorder.

The videos were difficult to watch as they were complete cringe trash.
"Hey do you watch Sarah's Youtube channel?" "No way! That thing is cringe trash!"

Cringe Rock 

Famous rock songs from the 80s/90s that have been over played to death. Often causing men over 50 to play an imaginary guitar.

Usually the very last song played at the end of the night in clubs leading to 17 year old’s raising their hands in the air and professing it to be the best song ever made.

Jon: Turn off that rap music and put some Chesney Hawkes on, this is an absolute classic.

Nathan: Not more Cringe Rock, we have already listened to Sweet Child O' Mine 3 times!
