cone of shame 

The plastic cone-shaped protective collar that a veterinarian puts on a dog or cat to prevent them from licking or pawing at an area of their body while it's healing from an injury or surgery. Also referred to as an Elizabethan collar (or e-collar), because of its similarity to the collars worn in Elizabethan dress.
Sherpa isn't enjoying being with the other dogs at the dog park today. You can tell he's embarrassed wearing the cone of shame that the vet put on him after his injury.

Roll of shame 

A method of self-spotting while bench pressing. The bar is allowed to fall to your chest, at which point you roll it down your torso until low enough that you can sit up.
I tried pushing max reps on my work set and ended up doing the roll of shame.

crown of shame 

When a man is bald on top yet he lets his hair grow on the sides instead of just shaving the whole thing.
Mary would go out with Bob if he would just shave that crown of shame.

stall shame 

The act of remaining in the stall long after the flush when someone else has entered the restroom, because that person does not wish anyone to associate them with the actions and/or smell which occurred there.
Experiencing some serious stall shame, Longwith sat quietly on the shitter, hoping that the other person would hurry up with the hand washing and leave.

Shame Brag 

For when you have done something so shameful but can't stop telling people about it that it almost seems like you're bragging.
"Ok this may be a bit of a shame brag but last night I got so drunk I lost my wallet, phone, ipod, friends, self-respect and woke up in a bin with no shoes on."

OR

"I felt so creepy when I made out with that teenager last night."
"No need to shame brag about that to everyone."

spanish shame 

The feeling of burning embarassment for the actions of others, also known as second hand embarassment, empathetic embarrassment, third party embarrassment or vicarious embarassment. Derived from Spanish "vergüenza ajena" - literally "shame on behalf of others"
When I hear the statements of musicians about politics, I feel burning Spanish shame.
