That point in a piece of fanfiction where you can tell something embarrassing is about to happen so you start fucking around on tumblr because you’re a huge baby with a crippling overabudance of empathy.
I do this with every media I consume. I pause movies and have to walk around and prepare myself for second-hand embarrassment sometimes.
This is mE
Secondhand embarrassment. I’ve got it.
I sometimes mute movies or tv shows to avoid it. Especially if I know it’s coming.
I TOTALLY DO THIS.
this is definitely not exclusive to fanfic, I do this with movies/shows/books regularly (or as regularly as the 2nd hand embarrassment’s on the table, anyway)
Cringe comedy is the worst when it comes to this.
