20 Photos That Are Both Sad And Cringeworthy

Cringing at posts online is a common thing. Everywhere you scroll there's likely to be something that provokes a revolting reaction, leaving you feeling just a little off. Companies and brands even take part in producing cringeworthy content, which arguably is the worst kind of cringe, because they genuinely think they're cool.

The internet is a vast place that is open for anyone to post anything to at any time. For whatever reason, some people find a lot of comfort in sharing their deepest and darkest thoughts and opinions to the whole internet, for just about anyone to see. This leads to a lot of cringeworthy content of another genre, sad cringe. Sad cringe is anything posted that is both cringeworthy and terrible, but also leaves you feeling a little sad for the person who posted it, or for those around them. Part of you laughs at them, part of you feels bad for laughing.
