scroll of shame 

Similar to the walk of shame, in that it is the first thing you do after drinking heavily and trying to remember what happened the night before as you try to get your life back. However, scroll of shame is scrolling through your smart phone to see who you drunk dialed and drunk texted the night before since you cannot or only vaguely remember.

During my scroll of shame this morning, I was shocked to see I had drunk dialed two of my ex boyfriends and texted another. How embarassing!

Scroll of Shame 

(Verb). Waking up on a Sunday and going from app to app to see the texts, Snapchats, etc you sent while drunk. If your poor thumb could talk it would ask to be amputated after the level 3 trauma it just endured.

This morning the scroll of shame was so rough, i ordered a flip phone for next weekend and am only putting 911 and dominos in the contacts.
