Social Media & Texts

Trading goods and services in exchange for advertising on social media is a long established&nbsp;custom that can create a mutually beneficial relationship. And while there are quite a few legit influencers with massive followings and business savvy, there are always a few bad apples who spoil the bunch. These are social media folks who believe having a few followers entitles them&nbsp;to anything and everything for free, such as&nbsp;jewelry, hotel stays, vacations, and experiences. Nothing is too big or too small to ask for &quot;a collaboration&quot; in exchange for &quot;exposure.&quot; &nbsp;

Here are a few examples of influencers who believe exposure is an executable means of currency.&nbsp;

Awkward

Schadenfreude is great! And over at <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/facepalm/" target="_blank">r/facepalm</a>, they have some bangers.

Funny

Make no mistake, these tough guys are absolutely NOT to be trifled with. They&#39;re real men&#39;s men, and look, it&#39;s nothing personal, kid, but you DO NOT want to be on their sh*t list. You&#39;ve been warned.

No one has as much angst as a teenager. Unfortunately for these teens, their angst-ridden attempts to be deep and meaningful live forever on the Internet. The subreddit <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/im14andthisisdeep" target="_blank">r/im14andthisisdeep</a>&nbsp;collects these cringy posts for all to see, from teens and adults alike, supplying them with even more angst.&nbsp;

Subreddit /r/<a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/Cringetopia" target="_blank">Cringetopia</a>&nbsp;is a mining ground for the cringe. Moments from childhood, adolescence, adulthood - there are plenty of moments of cringe in every lifetime era, as evidenced below. Vote up the worst offenses down below!

Ever seen those funny social&nbsp;media posts where someone claims to have been in a Starbucks at just the right&nbsp;moment to witness a feminist whale&nbsp;rights activist shut down a gay-bashing&nbsp;extremist super-villain with a perfect&nbsp;quip? Yeah. We all have.&nbsp;That’s why there’s the <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/thatHappened/" target="_blank">that happened</a> subreddit, a&nbsp;reddit thread dedicated to tales that, while admittedly impressive, contain&nbsp;hints&nbsp;that's they're completely made up. This is a collection of those not-so-true stories that are clogging up your Facebook feed right now probably.&nbsp;

In a world where your next date is just a finger-swipe away, you're bound to have your fair share of duds. For women, sometimes the only thing worse than sleazy&nbsp;pervs&nbsp;who&nbsp;immediately ask&nbsp;for nudes are&nbsp;cringeworthy&nbsp;&quot;nice guys.&quot;&nbsp;These men may seem genuinely sweet, but they really aren't.&nbsp;Sometimes it's a guy who helps you down the stairs when you're injured, only to throw&nbsp;your crutches on the ground when you don't go out with him. Other times,&nbsp;it's a guy you've known for ages who asks you to make babies with him&nbsp;once&nbsp;his girlfriend leaves the room. Either way, you're left wishing you had never met such a &quot;nice guy.&quot;&nbsp;

Reddit

Ever come across those people online who seem to sit around looking&nbsp;at their screen all day just waiting for a chance to display their brilliance before the rest of us mere mortals? Perhaps you can&nbsp;even relate, perhaps you've already spotted three things in this paragraph that you would have written differently. This is the very best of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/iamverysmart/top/?sort=top&amp;t=all" target="_blank">iamverysmart</a>, a Reddit thread of people trying to be smart on the Internet... and failing miserably. But they did succeed in providing the rest of us idiots with some top-notch entertainment.&nbsp;

Linkedin is a social networking app for business professionals. Most of us use it to keep our resumes updated and connect with coworkers. But there are some people out there who like to share their pearls of world wisdom with the world. Naturally these posts are completely out of touch with the real world. The twitter account <a href="https://twitter.com/BestofLinkedin" target="_blank">@bestoflinkedin</a> collects the best of the worst of Linkedin for everyone&#39;s cringing pleasure.&nbsp;

The internet is a great place to spread lies and misinformation so it&#39;s especially satisfying to see someone spreading BS get called out. The subreddit <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/quityourbullshit" target="_blank">r/quityourbullsh*t</a> collects the best of these clapbacks.&nbsp;

Big head? Yes. Big brain? Eh...

The internet is full of people who need you to know one thing: that they&#39;re smarter than you.&nbsp;Unfortunately, due to their ignorance, it&nbsp;doesn&#39;t work out in their favor. Fortunately, it works in our favor because these instances are just too good not to laugh at. Here are 19 people who tried to big-brain themselves into dominance on the internet&nbsp;and ended up falling short.&nbsp;

Lifestyle

&nbsp;

It&#39;s a harsh fact of life that people <a href="/list/worst-ways-to-get-dumped-stories/jamaal-armstrong?ref=profile_own" target="_blank">break up</a>. Relationships end all of the time, really.&nbsp;Right before the holidays seems to be a popular time to pull the rip cord. You&rsquo;re saving yourself some Christmas shopping, an uncomfortable New Year&rsquo;s Eve kiss. . .&nbsp;it&rsquo;s pragmatic really. But even if it&rsquo;s summer, people&nbsp;are always getting broken up with. It happens&nbsp;year round and you should know that Facebook is not the place to do it (even if you <a href="/list/people-caught-cheating-on-facebook/ashley-reign">caught them cheating</a>). It&#39;s really one of the <a href="/list/worst-ways-to-break-up-with-someone/samantha-dillinger">worst ways to break up</a> with someone. Go ahead and tell your friends or change your relationship status, but actively telling the person who was nice to you for at least a small amount of time that you no longer want to be with them via Facebook is pretty brutal. Really giving someone this news in any&nbsp;kind of public way is pretty sh*tty.

Here are a some people who are setting a great example for exactly what not to do when breaking up in public in front of the whole world or publicly on Facebook in front of the whole Internet. Families, hearts, and probably a bunch of teddy bears were torn apart in the events listed here. Some of these pictures you may have seen before, but you have haven&rsquo;t seen ALL of them, so vote the best ones up to the top. Also, please take a moment to look at all these very public/Facebook breakups and note everything you really shouldn&rsquo;t be doing. Pick these people apart. Dissect their misery and let it be your science. Learn from this.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

NOTE: Oh and don&rsquo;t do the &ldquo;repetition&rdquo; part of science where you test if this is really a bad idea.&nbsp;Just do the part where you learn. You know what? It&rsquo;s not science. These people who broke up with each other over Facebook aren&rsquo;t your new science. They are&nbsp;your new gospel. DO NOT BREAK UP WITH ANYONE OVER FACEBOOK. Or really in any public way. Be nice.&nbsp;

ONE MORE NOTE: LEARN FROM THIS.&nbsp;

The Internet is a haven for many things, and that unfortunately includes people who sound more correct than they actually are. Here are some of the worst instances&nbsp;we&#39;ve found this week where people were a little too confident in their questionable levels of intelligence.

After a long day of caring about your hygiene, job, and social media presence, you may find yourself identifying with other <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/dont-care-what-other-people-think-pictures/nathandavidson">people who just don't care</a>. By no means should anyone ever begrudge you for not giving a f*ck about how you present yourself in public. Just because you're at a work doesn't mean you need to interrupt your online gambling streak. If other travelers in the airport complain about your pace on&nbsp;the moving walkway, remind them your pace is the only one that matters.&nbsp;So long as you're not affecting anyone else's tasks or safety, who really cares? Photos of people who are over it might&nbsp;just help you change&nbsp;your second-guessing self&nbsp;into full-fledged no-f*cks-given master. As many older folks would show&nbsp;you, caring about other peoples' opinions is for those&nbsp;who are boring and ugly and serious.

Let's face it: basically everyone's old Myspace profiles are mega-embarrassing. The embarrassment only gets worse if you happen to be one of the lucky few to reach celebrity status before deleting your MySpace! Abandoned celebrity MySpace profiles take the world back to a time when society's favorite celebs were just as weird, goofy, and random as the rest of the population. Whenever you need a good laugh, peep these throwback Myspace profiles of some of today's biggest stars. The embarrassment is real.

Thanks to the Reddit forum r/<a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/iamverybadass/" target="_blank">IAmVeryBadass</a>, we&#39;ve compiled a list of some of the most insecure people on the internet. From threatening messages to Snapchat screenshots, these tough guys are really trying to prove to everybody in the world just how cool they&nbsp;are.&nbsp;

True Stories

The &quot;reply all&quot; function of an email interface rarely comes in handy. If you’re on a group email with two or three people, okay, that's probably fine, but you rarely hear positive reply-all stories. From the smallest grass roots organizations to mega corporations, reply-all fails are snakes in the grass waiting to strike. If you haven’t experienced the unique shame of accidentally emailing 10,000 people your thoughts on the finale of The Bachelor, you haven’t been the email game long enough. Check out these unfortunate reply-all disasters; they'll make you cringe, and pray you’re not the involved in the next story that’s added to this list. They're also pretty damn funny.&nbsp;There are so many ways around committing a reply-all faux pas it’s staggering to see so many nightmarish, hilarious stories of this nature. Whether the dum-dums on this list are emailing evil plans to their significant other or making fun of a secretary, they all take part in the time-honored tradition of looking like dunces thanks to technology. Accidents happen, but when they occur on a global stage, it makes us never want to use email again.

Making the decision to go on one of those reality show dating games means one of two things: either you have a killer sense of humor about your own love life, or you're seriously desperate and willing to try anything. The combination of those two things usually makes for some pretty hilarious televised moments, and we've put together a list of the funniest, most cringeworthy dating show fails for you to gawk at.&nbsp;&nbsp;Whether contestants are playing <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/full-list-of-the-newlywed-game-episodes/reference?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">The Newlywed Game</a>, trying to find modern love on The Bachelor/Bachelorette, or setting themselves up for a Blind Date, something embarrassing, funny, or downright cringeworthy is bound to happen. From classic shows like Love Connection&nbsp;to more modern shows like Singled Out, there's always an embarrassing moment or two when contestants start getting hot and heavy on television. These dating show bloopers include funny things people have said to get out of a bad date, horribly wrong answers to questions about their significant others, and awkward moments between couples who simply don't have good chemistry. &nbsp;Check out this list of awkward dating <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/funny-game-show-fails/chris-abraham?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">game show fails</a> below, and be sure to let us know what you think in the comment section.&nbsp;

Nothing&#39;s better than when someone on the internet randomly brings up their IQ... for no reason. Check out r/<a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/iamverysmart/" target="_blank">iamverysmart</a> for more people trying too hard to sound smart! Vote up the most pretentious posts!
