Luxury Shame

The feeling a wealthy person unaffected by the recession has for still being able to buy whatever the hell they want while most of the world is teetering on the brink of utter poverty.
"I felt luxury shame for lusting to purchase a $100,000+ Hermes handbag but simply couldn't bear the burden of what my less fortunate friends would think of me."

Purchase shaming

Being ridiculed for buying something, amounts to shaming.
My son saw my John Wayne Ranch jacket, and made fun of me for buying it. He purchase shamed me. I asked him, "Are you purchase shaming me?"

Parrot of shame

Twitter slang about talking shit about someone behind their back.

At date, the stats publicly displayed on a Tweet include a counter for Quote Tweets (QTs) — Retweeting the Tweet with an added comment of your own — which displays an accurate total number of QTs.

If you click on the QT counter, Twitter will show you a list of QTs on the Tweet; however, it will only show you the QTs that are publicly visible. Tweets by locked accounts, including QTs, are not publicly visible, so they are registered by the public QT count but do not show up in the QT list.

If a Tweet has 1 or more QTs but they're all private, the QT list will have no entries, just "No Quote Tweets yet," topped by a drawing of a parrot which appears to be narrowing its eyes suspiciously (the titular parrot of shame).

The only easy way to access the QT list is to click on the QT counter, which only shows up if a post has QTs. As a result, if you see the parrot on one of your Tweets, it means someone is discussing your Tweet on a private account, which often means they have an opinion about you or what you said, but don't want you to know what it is.

Therefore, referring to the "parrot" or the "parrot of shame" is a way of saying you know people are talking shit.
I can see the parrot of shame lmao, you're not slick.

Of course that thread is full of parrots, what else did you expect?

Political shame job

When a group from a political party do things to someone that are so wrong you would look at politics in a whole new light. The mass grave of people they cloned to cover it up kinda light…then you’d puke
That girl got a political shame job not even Monica Lewinsky could touch but definitely helped plan and that shame job is probably the only one that passed the lie detector test. Poor thing, I don’t think she’s even considered a person anymore. How she not a heroin addict yet? Email her and ask…

run of shame

the "run of shame" comes from the walk of shame but means something quite diffrent.

the run of shame is where the shame is so apparrent the solition entails running. this can happen in a number of diffrent ways. foot ball is a good example
You are innocently walking through the park and a nearby game a football is in motion and the ball flies in your general direction. You have a choice.

a. ignore the ball

b. kick the ball back trying to look as talented as possible

c. try and stop the ball and carefully pass it back trying not to look to silly.

You choose option b, you attempt to smash the ball as hard as one can to reach the football game eagerly awaiting the return of there ball. you fail you miss hit the ball spectacularly falling over and the ball goes even future away from the football game, you possibly break or deflate the ball in the process, lose the ball, or simply look bad at football in front of lots of people. The shame caused by this is over whelming the only thing appropriate is to run hard after the miss hit ball and pray you don’t make the same mistake again. “The run of shame”

Example 2. You run, you shoot at goal, you miss and it goes miles past the keeper, without stopping you continue to retrieve the epic fail of a shot, hopefully getting the ball back will redeem the fail. This is the "run of shame"

Example 3 you kick the ball over an impassable obstacle (fence, lake, country border), before anyone can get cross with you for ruing the game you commence the “run of shame” knowing full well there is no getting the ball back.
