Sure, the socially clueless do that all the time.

There are many sitcoms with characters that have those traits.

Yeah, but the character is cool because it's funny -- but if the character they played was a real person, not so cool -- just funny. For everyone else.
I voted option 2 because some people might act cringeworthy in an ironic way to amuse; but otherwise be a very non-cringeworthy person, and I think that that's kind of cool.

So are you saying that because coolness is a purely subjective thing, what's cringeworthy and socially clueless to some people might be considered cool and hip to others? What about charisma? I think some people are objectively more charismatic -- in the sense that the effects of especially charismatic people can be studied. I am not so sure if genuinely large amounts of charisma and influence can be highly cringeworthy -- oh I see what you mean, Donald Trump: Some people are influenced by him and find him charismatic. Some others, on the other hand, such as myself: consider him to be an absolute bell-end. I guess Donald Trump pretty much proves it. Massively cringeworthy but some people are influenced by him. I wouldn't consider him cool though ![]() Maybe it's possible to be both cringeworthy and either cool or charismatic but not both. I think that Donald Trump's hoodwinking charisma is battery-charged by his toxic and sordid ratlike toupee. It is definitely possessed and cursed by the occult. A truly witchcraft hairdo. To wear that toupee is one of his many legal crimes against humanity. It is a crime that is also his punishment. |
