30 Cringe Things People Do But We Accept Them For Some Reason

Bored Panda got in touch with No-Hamster7526 who made the initial post asking for people's ideas. They were kind enough to answer some of our questions. First and foremost, we were curious to hear why they wanted to pose this question to the internet.

“I just created the Ask Reddit post because I thought it'd keep me entertained for a while,” they shared with Bored Panda, which does seem like it’s a pretty common reason to get thousands of internet users to share their thoughts. However, the post itself ended up with over three thousand comments, more than enough to keep someone reading for days. 

As No-Hamster7526 noted, “I got hundreds of comments at a time, so it was hard to sort through them,” when we asked them if they had any personal favorites. “I think there was one about someone telling you heaps about something you don't care about,” they shared as the one they related to the most. 

Most of the answers here ranged from annoying to downright bad for society. This is both a representation of how many bad things have become normal as well as an indication that the word cringe has perhaps lost some of its nuances. As No-Hamster7526 told us, the appeal of the thread came from it being so universal, “Everyone has something they find cringe.”
