Fandoms are the bread and butter of the internet. There's a certain charm in being able to nerd out about your favorite show or franchise on the internet with thousands of others who have the same interests as you. One thing the internet did right was the fact that it brought people together in the most interesting ways, regardless of how niche your interests may be, you'll always find a community of people online who like the same things. That being said, the existence of fandoms has also led to the creation of quite a lot of memes and posts that didn't quite hit the funny bone.

Reddit's /r/terriblefandomemes is a subreddit dedicated to highlighting all the different cringy and unapologetically embarrassing memes that probably should've stayed in whatever fandom they were originally posted in. This collection is a gentle reminder that it's okay to be a nerd online, but you always have to be wary that the things you post online can be perceived entirely differently depending on where they get posted.
