glove guilt

when you're working with sensitive materials (chemistry, food prep, biohzards, etc.) and you repeatedly fuck up when putting on/using your disposable gloves so that you go through half a box in 5 minutes and you feel guilty about wasting resources

"there would always be some residue that would sublime its way through the tape and so it would get on your gloves, and then your gloves would smell like it until you replace them, and after you replace your gloves like five times, you feel a bit of glove guilt, so this is another really annoying stupid compound"

V6 Guilt

V6 Guilt is the description of the reasons a v6 muscle car owner will give as to why they didn’t get the v8 version of their car

“Hey man why didn’t you get a V8?” “Oh I got it because of the better fuel economy, it looks cool and it’s still faster than the 1970s v8s were!”

“Ah so I see you have V6 Guilt”

Guilt Fishing

A manipulative tactic in which a person (typically a straight male) uses guilt tripping and emotional blackmail to attract (or "fish" for) a romantic partner by abusing the potential victim's sense of empathy and making the victim constantly pity the person who is manipulating them. (otherwise known as the "fisher")

Damian: "No one loves me. I'm so lonely because I have no one to hold, please give me a chance or I'll kill myself. #loner #single #depressed"

Hannah: "Stop guilt fishing on Myspace and get professional help."

pirate's guilt

The feeling of wrongness one feels when accepting something from a vendor for free/ payment optional where the person would otherwise be perfectly fine taking it from a third party for nothing.

"Hey man I looked up that album you told me about on the bay and couldn't find it."

"Why not get it from their site? It won't cost you anything."

"It's, I dunno, the principal of the thing, y'know, it's..."

"Pirate's guilt?"

"Aye."

Guilt tabs

When you have a web browser open for weeks/months on end and a stack of tabs build up on the left which need to be read properly, in sobriety and daylight but the dank clickbait memes keep taking over and distracting you. Closing them is impossible, you will read them one day!

Jon's all out of RAM - he's got a serious case of guilt tabs building on. He's spending all his time on Reddit.
