social shaming

The use of social media to shame a stubborn or unresponsive company into fixing its goods or services. In short, it's applying the doctrine of public humiliation to shape behavior to social media and thus a much larger or at least potentially much larger audience.

Socially Dangerous

A person that should not go out in public alone.

A style of clothing/dress/hair/piercings that is so weird it cannot be unseen and is indescribable.

A person that is loosing touch with society because of massive amounts of time spent indoors.
Marcie- Is Leah taking fashion tips from Socially Dangerous magazine again?
Stacy- Oh God, don't let her out in public, what people will see cannot be unseen.

Meanwhile in Japan, the gameshows there usually include socially dangerous costumes, I wouldn't be caught dead in one of those outfits.

Mike- Have you seen Steve around lately?

Adam- No, he's been in his WoW world for two months now
Mike- Oh no! once he reaches level 80, he's gonna be socially dangerous!

Adam- Dude, best bring him back to reality gently...

physical socializing

Two or more individuals interacting in the physical presence of one another, without the immediate aid of online networking sites, telephones, mobile phones, text messaging, instant messaging, or other electronic communication mechanism. Two cups connected by a string suffices since someone must actually get close enough to another person to hand the cup over.
