Mass reporting of any violation of a rule while disrespecting the intent of the rule, just for the sake of getting something removed.
1. Someone posts a video of a political speech. There is no swearing; it could be on CNN.
2. The opponents of the person giving the speech mass report that video for containing "disturbing content," even though "disturbing content" is supposed to be something like, say, gore.
3. In reaction to the mass reports, moderators flag the video as 18+ or remove it entirely, just because of the rulebombing effect.

A post intended for a large audience yet posted on a single person's wall to appear more genuine. Since proxy wallposts are visible through homepage feeds, one can advertise a trait of oneself that would be construed as bragging if in the form of a status.
Suppose you want to advertise to your friends that you are caring and social. This is impossible to brag about, so instead just find your friend who shares the most mutual friends and write this gem of a proxy wallpost:
"We had such a great time last week! I miss you so much <3"
Soon, everyone you know will see it in their feed. And, unlike a status, no one will call you on it for fear of you playing the None Of Your Business card.

The feeling of intense embarrassment after one realizes they have constructed their sense of self on false premises.
At age 13, Matt was what you would call wapanese. Having never confronted his self-misconception for what it was, he channeled his existential embarrassment into hatred of others who reminded him of the way he used to be.
SARAH: baka! ^^;
MATT: congrats you're weeabo garbage
SARAH: :(
AMY: Matt, don't be malicious to Sarah as a form of compensation for your inability to deal with anything that reminds you of when you were 13 and deluded.

A conflict or argument made to convince the people watching the conflict, rather than the person being confronted.
Shouting about how much of a jerk someone is will not convince that person, but it can be used as a show conflict to convince the people watching you shout at that person.
Show arguments / show conflicts are for the audience, not the attackee.

A lie or method of misleading where one symbolic clue is kept while all other details are omitted. Listeners will then reconstruct the story based on familiar associations with the symbolic detail.
misclue about suicide: "Last night, there were pills scattered on the floor." (Which I happened to knock over.)
misclue about danger: "I found a gun in my house last night that I didn't own." (It was a water gun.)
misclue about sickness: "Sorry I didn't come to work yesterday. I woke up vomiting." (From a hangover.)
