Dog Show

A subtle type of insulting or belittling of a Target by using a sarcastic way of request aimed at said Target to show their talent, skill, or level of intelligence. If the Target obliges to the request, often times in front of a camera or a crowd, this results in 2nd Hand Embarrassment among watchers (commonly without the knowledge of the target), a malicious amusement among the requestors, and lowering the Target's standing in the eye of the public, the crowd, or in the hierarchy of their peers.

A Dog Show commonly happens as a way of bullying a person without their knowledge, who is clueless to this concept. The term came from Dog Shows, where dogs are ordered to do tricks, to entertain an audience.
Actor 1: "Hey Brad! Can you do a little dance for me? These girls over here would be OVERJOYED to see you bust some moves... I heard that you were a great dancer!"

Actor 2: "Yeah haha! Come on it would really make me have a crush on you if you did!"

Target: "Oh haha. O-okay..." *dances awkwardly*

Actor 4: "Those upperclassmen are making a Dog Show out of that poor kid again. Should we do something?"

Actor 5: "Nah. He should've learned to avoid it after he got his left leg sprained from failing a Cartwheel."

(cool and/or ridiculous definition) : what a virgin girl says in a Craigslist personals ad when she wants to find a random guy to take her virginity via a craigs-hook
Craigslist personals ad: all I want is to be waiting for the milkman to show me around

response to ad: I am also a virgin girl, but instead of looking for a random Hannibal Lecter I would consider selling my virginity.
