Some people really have no sense of self-awareness, or what looks good.

Last week, Republican Representative Matt Gaetz of Florida shared a photo of himself alongside a fellow Republican. Like most of his selfies, he thought the photo was pretty great.


It's possible he thinks this is the best photo ever. Those who saw it on social media failed to agree, however.

Gaetz captioned the photo:

"I will never take a cooler photo than this."

In the photo, GOP Congressman and Trump superfan Gaetz appeared on a couch alongside Kimberly Guilfoyle, whose latest infamous moment was yelling "The Best is Yet to Come" in a speech at the opening night of the 2020 Republican National Convention.

Though Guilfoyle was in a suitable enough position, with her legs crossed and one arm positioned over the back of the couch, Gaetz leaned back awkwardly toward Guilfoyle, until his head was pressed against her bosom. Then he threw in an uncomfortable-looking leg cross and Gaetz's head appearing to be in a strained position to complete the look.

For good measure, the Chief of Staff for the Trump Victory Finance Committee, Sergio Gor, stood behind the couch, in front of some very business-like wall art, leaning forward and smiling above the awkward pair.

Though Gaetz may have been going for more of a "Go Team!" vibe, people on Twitter just found it cringeworthy.



Twitter users agreed there were a lot of weird elements in this photo to comment on.



His head leaning up against Guilfoyle was really the finishing touch that no one wanted.



This wasn't the first cringeworthy photo Gaetz had taken and it almost certainly wouldn't be the last.




There were good, productive intentions behind the staging of this photo, right?

Otherwise, it just reeks of trying too hard combined with cringe. But maybe that's exactly what people should have expected from someone dubbing himself "Florida man" in his Twitter description.

Melania Just Held A Bizarre Press Conference To Debunk 'False Smears' Related To Jeffrey Epstein—And Everyone Had The Same Response

First Lady Melania Trump had everyone thinking the same thing after she held a bizarre press conference on Thursday to deny that she had anything but casual ties to Jeffrey Epstein, the late disgraced financier, pedophile, sexual abuser, and sex trafficker.

Mrs. Trump publicly denied any ties to convicted sex offenders Epstein and his procurer Ghislaine Maxwell, saying claims linking her to Epstein are “lies” meant to damage her reputation. She said she met her husband, President Donald Trump at a New York City party in 1998 and did not meet Epstein until 2000, contradicting a witness statement in the Epstein files that alleges Epstein introduced the couple.

Dem Rep. Sarah McBride Perfectly Shames Nancy Mace For Her Transphobic Response To McBride's Condemnation Of Trump

Delaware Democratic Representative Sarah McBride pushed back at South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace after Mace responded with transphobia to McBride's criticism of President Donald Trump's genocidal threat to kill the "whole civilization" of Iran.

Trump has insisted that God supports his war on Iran and declared—before a provisional ceasefire was announced—that "a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again" ahead of a deadline to bomb Iran’s power plants and bridges that legal scholars and world leaders have said would constitute war crimes.

Comedian Explains How Millennials' Midlife Crises Are Different From Past Generations—And He's Spot On

Don't make promises you cannot keep, unless your goal is to hurt someone.

Millennials know that practically better than anyone. They were fed a long and impassioned series of advice, hyper-focused on the importance of getting a college degree in order to find a good job. They were also force-fed traditionalist ideals of getting married, having kids, and buying a nice house with the money they'd be making from that great job, of course.
