CrInge culture is dead. go and do a little happy dance in public, go and recreate that one scene from Kingdom hearts in a Walmart parking lot. Dont be afraid of being happy, we only have one life, no one should shame another one for living it

Jeez, did you have to call me out in particular?
Yes. Live free
Glad to hear! I was getting pretty sick of hearing how embarrassed boring people were on my behalf.
Unironically yes. You have to stop letting the potential disapproval of others stop you from being yourself. Sure, you may be cringe in the eyes of some, but it is better to live in cringe than die repressed.
(P.S. if you add a ! to the beginning of the link it'll embed as an image on Lemmy, though it won't do anything about Kbin I don't think)
Ah thx i figured it out, its ! [link text] (url) no spaces, on kbin at least
Oh that's the same as on Lemmy!
The wonders of markdown.
I forgot that this was markdown I'm using π
Is it letting go of fear or finding confidence and self which overwrites fear?
Yes.
Like Picard himself said; fear is the mind killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
Any comedian can tell you, they've said way more cringey shit in their lives than funny shit.
Listening to comedians talk about doing comedy sounds like it's more of an endurance game than anything. Just bombing and putting yourself back out there until you're really good.
That tracks with 99% of the stand-up comedy I've seen
Not using the word "cringe" as a descriptor is the first step on the road to a better life.
if I use arch btw how cringe am I?
Perhaps I am cringe, but that makes me free!
...Except for when I wake up at ngiht in a cold sweat remembering cringe from years ago.
Doktor! Turn off my cringe inhibitors!
But Raiden, you'll lose subscribers
Just do it!
Like what? Trying to write down the cringe shit I've done makes it seem a lot more forgivable. Oh, I was a rat snitch as a 12 year old? I got my friends in trouble because they left me out of activities because I was a rat snitch who got them in trouble all the time?
I was caught watching porn as a youngster? Wooow, what an original trauma. I bet nobody else has ever been caught looking up pictures of boobs when they were 14. I've definitely never found my siblings' sex stuff.
I got into skateboarding because of an anime, stepped on it once, fell over backwards and broke my elbow? Now that's embarrassing. But you know what? I got on the damn skateboard and tried. Would I rather be here right now with that infernal machine still under my bed, never having mustered up the courage to try in the first place?
...Yeah, because hospital bills are fucking expensive
I can confidently say I'm cringe af
βIt is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man makes cringe or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who makes cringe, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without cringe and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he makes cringe, at least makes it while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor cringe.β
