Oh the cringe!

    I was just perving on some pic's on the Facetube put up by a nightclub and I couldn't help but cringe at the sight of people genuinely posing for photo's with hand gestures/signage flying all over the place.

    From some sort of 'horizontal V sign' and the 'I love rock' gesture to a signal of loyalty familiar to the West Coast 'gangsta's' of America, represented by an overlapping of the middle fingers. While glad I don't fraternize with people who partake in such idiocy, I can't but worry that this behaviour may further tarnish my generation during attempts to convey the nightlife scene in possible future episodes of Reeling in the Years (A banging good show!).

    Of course the list of all things cringy is seemingly endless. Potentially to the extent of inclusion of rant's such as the one that I have just displayed. (Also, see George Hook).

    End of diatribe

    The only ever picture that was taken of me in a nightclub like this I was highly intoxicated and don't even remember it being taken.

    There were no mad signs or anything...I was too busy drinking.

    I agree. What! What! Cup of tea old chap?

    oh but they were "drunk" so it's ok.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,689 ✭✭✭Tombi!


    FFS, what's with the racism?

    So they've joined the Bloods or Crips and they're representing their crew.

    Live and let live.

    Bet you wish you were a pale skinned, red headed black man from LA that's really Irish!

    I used the term 'perving' playfully, not in reference to my intent to play with my genitals. Also, that is not Karma.

    Its the duck faces that are the real problem in modern society. Although usually you will find said duck face supporting this "horizontal v-sign".

    Oh and hipsters. Cunts.

    Do hipsters do duck faces?

    That would be an unspeakable evil.

    Probably not, I just felt the need to express my dislike for them if being honest. :p

    fairly non-existent but grand otherwise.

    So you admit intent to jark off.

    It's actually a trend or pattern I have noticed in numerous pictures.

    Maintain your brace.
