You Look Like You Could Use Some Secondhand Embarrassment (25 Pics)

You! Yes, you there. You look like you’d like to see some cringe-worthy but funny pictures taken by strangers.

Frankly, I live to see other people embarrass themselves. It’s happening to someone else. That’s why it’s funny.

Honestly, though, I laugh at all of these cringe photos because I’ve been there before. I had an “awkward” phase (my teens and twenties).

I survived, however, and my reward is that I get to joke about seeing other people be awkward. It’s fun! They survived these cringe moments against all odds. Let’s enjoy other people capturing the moments.

Here are the funniest and most awkward photos of people experiencing second-hand embarrassment:


1. So conceited you’re already imagining betrayal.

2. Wow. Cartoons and furries have warped people’s brains.

3. “Accidentally made two announcements.”
