''Know Shaming'' is the petty social act of making someone feel smaller or stupid for literally not having known the information someone is telling them. Know shaming can occur in social or academic discourse, but also in interactions around media or celebrity consumption.

Get the Know Shamingmug. When a guy masturbates without any tissues for cleanup, so he has to sadly wipe the resultant semen on the side of the bed closest to the wall after he’s done with his stroke session.
I forgot that I didn’t bring any toilet paper into my bedroom last night, I was forced to do the wipe of shame.

Get the Wipe of shamemug. A parking ticket, particularly one in a bright orange envelope, often found under windshield wipers on cars parked at university campuses and busy cities.
If you don't feed the meter when you park, there might be an orange envelope of shame on your windshield when you get back.
LPT: remove wiper blades from your car so the meter maid can't leave you an orange envelope of shame.
