Dare I say, you don't know the definition of "cringe" based solely on how you justify the cringeworthiness of these items you are calling out.

Cringe is closer to second-hand embarrassment while your commentary is just being cynical and sarcastic (duh). Those reactions have very little to do with each other.

Cringe is having the audacity to wear Crocs on a summer dinner party. Cynicism is thinking everyone else is an idiot for wearing leather shoes on this particularly toasty evening.

Cringe is the feeling when people gush over Jack Ma's little wuxia short film where not only does he sing the main theme, he also goes toe to toe with Donnie Yen. Cynicism is thinking Ma must've had a spare million or so and Donnie Yen and Faye Wong must be putting a downpayment on a new yacht.

I cringe that this forum has to over-analyze what is, all things considered, a pretty lighthearted and harmless listicle. I cringe that I am writing this comment right now because why the hell do I care so much that someone on the internet does not know the difference between cringing and being skeptical. I'm soooooo embarrassed I hope I don't ever look at this thread again.
