In the Cringe Comedy entry on that article, there is exactly one example, the last one, that has proper context. Nuking the rest.
Edit: Huh, even the last one is bad. Nuking them all.

On New Girl under Cringe Comedy moshimoshi44 added a Zero Context Example. I sent him a PM and he added some context but I didn't see how the cringe situation was comedic and told him that. He wrote back saying the example by itself is fine, but this is turning literally a Don't Explain the Joke situation. Does the joke need to be explained in Cringe Comedy? Also I told him the phrase, "are made of this" is Word Cruft before he wrote to me but he didn't take it out.
