Based or cringe?
To be based, or to be cringe? That is the question.

BY JAMES HANNAY
APRIL 8, 2021 STRANDED/VOLUME 63 ISSUE 12/JOKE ISSUE
Internet slang is a vast and confusing arena. People throw around quick quips to react to something, to categorize it, to attach a meaning to the fleeting moments caught on a Twitch stream. Two of these reactions are “based” and “cringe.”
 
These two words are important because they represent a dichotomy. On one side, cringe: something that you find icky, uncomfortable, disagreeable, annoying, cringey. On the other, based: simply the opposite of cringe.
