Cat Clause By Proxy

Similar to the Cat Clause but the cat isn't physically on you.

For example the cat is sleeping next to you, and moving or getting up would disturb it.
"Sorry I can't get up, my cat is sleeping next to me and if I move it will stop being cute and return to being a menace"

"I can't get out of my room, my cat is sleeping in front of the door and I seem to be in a Cat Clause By Proxy"

Shit Proxy

An interface, implemented by software or business process, built on a source of unmanaged and incoherent data, and acts as poorly or poorer in its behavior than if the original data source was interacted with directly.
Developer 1: This API works in the most unbelieve illogical manner.
Developer 2: What do you mean?
Developer 1: When I used the original data source it was at least possible to find the exact thing I wanted and now because this shit proxy written by morons is in the way...I can't get it to do anything because they've changed all the search parameters. It's a fucking unique ID just return the fucking data with the Id specified.

Where you feel compelled all of the time to make other people do things that you do not feel the need to do yourself. Their failure to do so makes you extremely uncomfortable.

Also, making a person do something over and over again because you think they probably did not do it right before.
When my wife cleans the house, everything is good enough, lets move on. When I clean the house, everything has to be perfectly done or she gets angry and makes me do it again. I swear she has obsessive compulsive disorder by proxy.

My dad with his obsessive compulsive disorder by proxy made me go check to see if the door is locked six times last night. By the sixth time I told him if he thinks that I can't do it right, he needs to go check it himself.

ambition by proxy

"Ambition by proxy" refers to a situation where someone delegates ambitious tasks, projects, or goals to another person without actively participating or contributing to the effort themselves. This term implies that the person is seeking to achieve success or recognition vicariously through the efforts of others, rather than taking on the challenges directly.
When my boss constantly assigns me high-profile projects but never offers any support or guidance, it feels like he's practicing ambition by proxy, wanting the glory without putting in the work.

You know when your wife comes up with ideas for projects for you to do but doesn't plan on helping at all? That's ambition by proxy.

horny by proxy

A phenomenon in which if you watch a person (whether it be a vlogger, an actor, or an influencer) talk openly about their sexual desires with an especially salacious attitude, you start thinking about the object person of your affections/desires. while pondering that, you realize just how much you thirst for that person. As a result, while continuing to watch the content creator speak expressively about their "horniness," you lust after the object of your affections, which subconsciously causes you to be horny for that content creator BY PROXY. this can result in you: "missing sexual intercourse, i.e., missing d**k or p***y, wanting to eat someone out, etc.," or "getting the urge to pleasure oneself."

This is a shortened version of the phrase "horny for someone by proxy."

(this is a work in progress)
I was watching this vlogger talk about how much he misses having sex, and that made me think about how much I miss my bf's phallic object. I got so horny by proxy for him.

(Still a work in progress)
