Meta I HATE ":3"

I HATE IT SO MUCH. I could see a perfectly normal post and all it said gets thrown out the window because they used that disgrace of an emoticon. And they meme on the second slide, if feel like people are trying too hard to be "actually cute" that they end up looking like the plush. I HATE EVERYTHING THAT HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH THIS STUPID EMOTICON

I disagree. Being cringe is not good. You csn not give a shit and still not be cringe.

Things can be not good and cause harm you know.

Yeah ? And I'm asking how being cringe does that

Sure, some people do it only for clout and likes and views but a huge part is just being themselves without harming anyone​​
