...Just made me laugh, is all.
ANYWAY, onto the subject at hand, ey? Cringeworthy moment an' that. That is the official title, I just didn't bother to tell people in the main title.
...Haha I am way too distracted by the picture actually.
Ok, onto the typing without getting sidetracked bit:
Has anyone ever done any cringey things that they think back and go, "Oh my frick, why??" when they were younger? I bloody have. I mentioned one of those moments when I was a total WWE fangirl from the age of probably 11-15? But yeah, I was just a typical fangirl and I only realised this recently. The post about that is here cause I can't be bothered to repeat myself.
Also, I stumbled upon an old MSN group I used to be a part of in 2005 [is was called the forbury group and was there for people that hung out in the forbury, which is a place in Reading where all the typical 'alternative' kids used to hang out, drink and do drugs], which isn't even that long ago, is it? But the stuff I said and even the way I typed was atrocious. I would have wanted to stick my face in acid if I ever saw 15 year old me walking down the street saying stuff like I said in this group! I was....a twat.
Check out....seriously, just check out the stuff I said, I can't even believe I was this bad:
#1 Narrow-minded cunt
'omg if u dont like marilyn manson then you totally suck!, he's amazing!!!!! you probably like all the shitty stuff like busted and mcfly'
#2 Looks-obsessed inconsiderate twat-face
'btw that guy that killed his gf i really feel sori for, i'm with him all the way, ROCK ON KILLER CUTE DUDE!!!'
#3 Plain idiot??
'who out of u people actually likes marilyn manson anymore? I cant find anyone who does and it pisses me off! grr some people really do suck if u do like him you're totally ace in my book!'
#4 Even more of a twat
'ok i'm not trying to be a sheep or anything but that killer guy was actually quite cute (he just had to hav long hair...), i dont admire him i just feel sorry for him, i mean 20 years is aaaaages'
[This little gem was on about a 20 year old guy that killed his girlfriend and served 20 years in jail. One of those murders that the media thought was caused by Marilyn Manson I think]
#5 Materialistic even more inconsiderate bitch
'i hav a bf but he sux and i'm gonna dump him after my b-day coz i want the 2 hoodies he's gonna get me ...not being mean or anything, i just happen 2 like guys, they rock!'
Why the fuck, people? Yeah, I'd expect this sort of behaviour maybe....MAYBE from me when I was 12 or 13 but I was nearly 16!! Plus....this is all really fucking bad, specially the last thing. How could a creature like that ever exist in me? I'm not even trying to be funny, I'm totally serious this is just like a slap to the face. I was cringing so much when I stumbled across this.
What scares me the most is I obviously had no idea I was like that back then or else it wouldn't be as much of a shock now, so, what if I'm a bit of a twat right now and not realising? I mentioned this in the WWE post too but it scares me. What if, in 5 years time, I look back at me now and also want to stick my face in acid? I hope I'm ok, I really do.
So please, can anyone match that massive cringe? If not, it's cool, I understand [I really do.....] but any other stories of cringe-worthy moments from the people that used to be you i.e. when you were younger?
Responses from aaaanyone are appreciated. I dunno why some people probably think only regular people that visit can comment.
Just thinking of the average 12-16 year olds I've met this isn't at all surprising. Kids go crazy at that age.
We didn't have e-mail or the internet when I was that age, though, so I don't have my own words from the time in writing. And I was very alone back then, a depressed little girl with few friends who didn't live in the same town and usually had better things to do than hang out with her. I wasn't into fashion, boys or music - the other girls thought it was me being immature, I thought it was me not having time for nonsense.
Anyway I've always been capable of cringing at things I said that same day, so no doubt I'd cringe at things I said and did at 15, if I still had any recordings to look at now.
