When someone is tsunami shamed, their problems, big or small, are shot down immediately on the premise of ''At least you haven't suffered a tsunami''. It's hard to tell whether this is supposed to be comforting or or whether the person is playing the douche on purpose.
Two examples of tsunami shaming:
John: Hey Bob, what's up?
Bob: It's been a rough week. My dog got hit by a car, one of my parents lost their job, and I got a cold just in time for the finals.
John: Yeah, well, at least your house isn't three miles from where it used to be. Toughen up.
Linda: I heard you were moving to an apartment, Jane.
Jane: Yeah, my family's house is getting foreclosed on, we have to be out within a month. The only place I can afford is really small and seedy. I feel more sorry for my kids than myself.
Linda: Stop bitching, a least they'll have a roof over their heads, UNLIKE THE TSUNAMI VICTIMS!!!

Get the Tsunami Hug mug.A tribe of Native Americans that reside in the hill regions of the "Oh-jai" valley in California. They have a long history of drug abuse and violence. They have a tradition of dropping or placing their feces on rocks. This tradition continues today, even as the tribe slowly dies out. Interest in the tribe has risen since Man Vs. Wild season 3 started and their turd-rocks were featured on the first episode. They are closely associated with the Tierra Rojada Conquiste plant and are under the influence of it at all times. They are known to have red ants in their feces.

Get the Tsunami Walk mug.this is when a man comes in to contact with a treasure trove of beav that must be plowed. one may ride the tsunami poonani by obtaining a large fanbase of which groupies will spawn out of, however, this usually requires good looks and youth for smaller fanbases, the older and uglier you are, the more famous and powerful you need to be.
if one does not have groupies, a man may still ride the tsunami poonani by paying, starting with all the local escorts and sugar babies and if said man originates from the first world, he may further ride the tsunami poonani in the endless sea of multicultural beav and eventually settle down with a nice mail order trophy wife 1/3 his age when he is old and the spirit is willing but the flesh is spongy and bruised.
