Proxy Slur: A term or phrase that is commonly used in a seemingly innocent or neutral manner, but has been assigned a covert, derogatory meaning by specific groups or in certain contexts. The offensive connotation is not apparent to those outside the specific group or context.
"Neighbor": In your example, the word "Neighbor" is a regular term used to describe someone living nearby. However, if two or more parties have agreed to use it as a stand-in for a racial slur, it becomes a proxy slur in their specific interactions.
"Apple": Imagine a scenario where a group uses the word "Apple" to derogatively refer to a person from a certain city or region, unbeknownst to others. In this context, "Apple" functions as a proxy slur.
"Blue Sky": In a hypothetical case, if "Blue Sky" is used among a particular group to negatively refer to a certain ideology or belief system in a covert way, it would be a proxy slur in that context.

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."

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.

Munchausen syndrome by proxy is a mental illness and a form of child abuse. The caretaker of a child, most often a mother, either makes up fake symptoms or causes real symptoms to make it look like the child is sick.
The DSM-IV places Factitious Disorder by proxy (i.e., Munchausen's syndrome by proxy) into this category, defining it as “the intentional production or feigning of physical or psychological signs or symptoms in another person who is under the individual's care for the purpose of indirectly assuming the sick role."

Their sole caretaker was diagnosed with Munchausen by Proxy after it was discovered they were poisoning the child to make them seem more ill in order to gain sympathy.
