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."

Carbon guilt

The horrible guilt a generally green-minded person feels when they have no choice but to do something entirely unsustainable.

"I am so racked with carbon guilt-- my company is making me fly half way across the world for a 2 hour meeting!"

guilt flush

after coming home from a very late night out... you wake up in the morning only to find you have cocaine left over in a baggy in your pocket.
Feeling guilty from the night before for doing drugs, you flush the rest down the toilet.

Dude, I totally guilt flushed my baggy this morning.

green guilt

Green guilt is when you do something that is bad for the environment and feel guilty about it.

I forgot to bring my shopping bags to Whole Foods or Trader Joe's so I am feeling green guilt.

White Guilt

See: Barack Obama

I'm a successful white liberal. I'm voting for Barack Obama because he lessens my white guilt.

Gaga Guilt

A form of guilt feeling originating from contempt of Lady Gaga, prior to investigation. An early symptom of Gaga guilt is cognitive dissonance. Upon learning the true creative genius that Lady Gaga is, those who had misjudged the artist previously, develop emotional discomfort from the two opposing beliefs held simultaniously. Self-knowledge and disregarding the flawed belief alone, may not be enough to relieve the sufferer's guilt feelings. Especially if the sufferer communicated any of their original and flawed judgements. In such cases, it is recommended that the sufferer publicly praise the artist. Prognosis, for those suffering from Gaga Guilt, is good. Studies show recovery rates at 100%.

In order to relieve her Gaga Guilt, Tracy posted sincere praise and a link to Lady Gaga's site, on her Facebook Wall.
