We're hosting an open mic at the shop in a few weeks. A dude just came in and saw the flyer and asked if he can do some freestyling rap. I said it's an open mic and he's more than welcome to do whatever. He's a middle aged white dude.

Ten minutes later, I thought he left, I was talking across the room to my boss that...

"I hope that rap guy doesn't come because I get really cringed out when people freestyle for some reason. Especially if it's bad. I hope the guy is good, he could end up being really good, but like even professional freestylers make me cringe hard for some reason. It's like that feeling when you watch a really awkward episode of the Office but it's when people rap in front of me."

Silence.

I look up. White rap dude didn't leave. He's standing right there. I almost exploded and my phase into a walking talking ironic cringe machine had finished. Only thing I said before he left was "well, I hope you uhhhhhh prove me wrong, man".

F*ck.

Did he look like Fred Durst? That's how I pictured him when I read your story.

What makes it more cringe than written rapping?

Tbh I find most Hip-Hop to be cringe worthy these days. Can't remember the last time I listened to something and liked it.
