@ohnoitskelley I can answer this! Camp comes from the French gay slang se camper (make an exaggerated pose). According to Susan Sontag's defining essay "Notes on Camp," the difference is intentionality: Camp knows it's campy & doesn't take itself seriously. It's in on the joke. Cringe isn't. — PolitiTweet.org
