Embarrassment of Riches

An embarrassment of riches is an idiom that means an overabundance of something, or too much of a good thing, that originated in 1738 as John Ozell's translation of a French play, L'Embarras des richesses (1726)

Example: "All four of them have their own cars but there's no room in the driveway—an embarrassment of riches".

Proxy Embarrassment

Empathetic embarrassment felt for the sake of another who is incapable of shame or unaware that they should feel shame.

Seeing that guy dance sets my proxy embarrassment off.

Whenever Glenn Beck has a freakout on TV, I feel proxy embarrassment.

Even though she tries hard, I can't listen to her singing without it setting off my proxy embarrassment.

Embarassed Turtle

Taking the limp penis and pushing in back into you as far as it can go. Then you take the loose scrotum (best when out of a hot-tub or hot shower) and fold it from under, on to the top of your penis therefore resembling a turtle hiding in its shell.

The Embarassed Turtle, the Bat Wing, and the Brain are some of my favorite penis molding techniques during boredom.
