minus-squareZeusbottom@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up24·7 months agoAnything that maximizes embarrassment or cringe. Can’t watch most Will Ferrell or Borat. Ugh, it makes me so uncomfortable.
minus-squarePietson@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up19·7 months agoMaybe controversial but I had that with the office.
minus-squareFridgeratr@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up8·7 months agoSame, Steve Carrell’s character almost causes me physical pain
minus-squareRacerX@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up6·7 months agoI’ve seen every episode of the office at least 4 times (and some much more) with the exceptions of Scott’s Tots. Watched it once and never went back. That one was too much.
minus-squareJessvj93@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·7 months agoI’ve never seen it based on everyone’s description and the meme, fuck walking into that mirrored feeling lol
minus-squareTheSambassador@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·7 months agoIt’s not really controversial. Cringe is used to full effect in The Office, and it’s absolutely something that a lot of people don’t enjoy. I love The Office, and I do think that once you know the characters, the cringe gets less intense, but it just isn’t going to jive with everyone.
