How is that cringey? I don't get what's cringey about the Gathering either.

Any key?

GAA fans are the worst for it. "Oh those bandwagoners get tickets to the AI final and I don't blah blah blah blah". They seem to be too stupid to realise that the Bandwagoners are the only reason the sport is as popular as it is. Without it the All-Ireland final would be held in front of 5000 people, or less.

Doubt that

Any key?

Relationship people who publicly display their affection on Facebook, even though they break up and get back together umpteen times and you know both they are doing a bit on the sly side too.

Same but more people who live through Facebook..umpteen photos of their kids/I love my boyfriend soooo much so blessed right now crap

Makes me sick, wonder if their life would be as gratifying without Facebook likes.......

I think the word you're looking for is bandwagoning. The clue is in the sentence where you said 'band wagon'. Banwagoning is a human phenomenon.

I find it odd that people would 'cringe' or get annoyed at new people becoming interested in a particular thing. It's almost as if they're trying to assert some sort of faux-authority by sticking it to the 'newbs'.

I think it's great to see all the new interest in MMA that Conor McGregor has helped generate.

The bullshít nonsense the contestants talk about in Deal Or No Deal.

"There's just something in the air that says you're going to win" "THERE IS A BLUE IN MY BOX, I CAN SMELL IT!!!!!" "This is your destiny!" "Just think about it, that amount money is lots of money, but it's still not that much. You could still win less, or you could win more. That's my advice." Noel Edmonds in general is just a walking cringe machine.

I hate that show.

Going on about something being a bandwagon... is a bandwagon in and of itself. Some people don't even know what they're talking about when they moan about hipsters or craft beer - it's just the thing to say.

Irish people claiming to be "unionist" just because it's kinda right-wing and no-nonsense. People pretending to be all right-wing and no-nonsense in general. Give me "right-on" before that tripe any day.

The way some people get upset over the thanks system here - obviously because they don't get thanked much. As if they wouldn't use the thanks button. And I doubt they'd be asking people to unthank them.

When someone quotes a line from a TV show or movie, usually a joke, and they get the flipping line wrong!

By a long, long shot, Mayo jersies are the most widespread on earth,you will simply never escape them..

That said, this photo is still great: http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2011/02/11/article-0-0D2263B8000005DC-713_634x423.jpg

On a similar topic, I remember reading an article in the Sunday Times about how African children wearing premier league/La Liga jerseys donated from abroad was helping to damage local soccer. The impressionable kids naturally follow the team of the jersey they get and wouldnt bother with their local teams and see them as something to look down on (where have we heard that before?).

Of course in the accompanying photo there's a bunch of kids in their jerseys. At the front and center of the photo a child is wearing the distinctive shirt of......Crossmaglen Rangers!

I can only imagine a ugandan Willie Frazer rabbling on about the GAA destroying Uganda's culture.

I've seen it so much to the point I'll actively avoid going out when it's on. I went to the pub last year for this game and I will never go again. I witnessed:

- Lads calling each other 'Manc Scum' and 'Scouse W*nkers'. These are boys who grew up together in West Dublin.

- Chanting in Mancunian and Scouse accents at the telly and at each other

- A United fan decked out in that Green and Gold protest scarf against 'foreign' owners and his mates thinking he was a dedicated lad for doing so.

- The coup de grace, though, was one fella squaring up to the ref (TV Screen in reality) and his mate holding him back going ''just leave it man''.

These fellas are embarrasing beyond belief.

After reading this post I can't take club football seriously anymore.

Thanks Omackerel.

I went to a football match recently - FC Tokyo versus Omiya Ardija. The game itself was fine, but before the game, all the FC Tokyo fans stood up with their scarves held above their heads, and sang along, karaoke-style, to 'You'll Never Walk Alone', with the English lyrics on the big screens for them to follow.

I was there with a Belgian lad and an English lad, and the three of didn't know where to look.

The Japanese in general seem to be quite a cringeworthy nation..

I'm currently cringing at how many people have jumped on the MMA band wagon here because of Conor McGregor.

Conor McGregor's put on accent. It's some faux American abomination. I respect everything he's done for MMA over here and think he's a fine athlete but the chap is from Crumlin. Makes me cringe anytime he opens his gob.

My dad loved Daniel O'Donnell, was extremely cringey when I was young but had passed beyond some kind of line and became a bit charming in the last few years.

_Whimsical_

When people start sentences with "Ah here,leave it out".

When someone tries to slip in a joke/witty remark they've seen on tv or read somewhere in a conversation and pass it off as their own. That always make me wonder if they've been sitting there the whole time waiting for an opportunity to use that line,
That makes me cringe so much I find it hard to make eye contact with them for a while.
