tech guilt

Similar in concept to white guilt, tech guilt is a growing feeling among tech workers who are buying or renting homes and apartments made available by the eviction of socioeconomic minorities or the gentrification of "transitional neighborhoods" in major tech hubs like Silicon Valley.

Brad: Can you believe my studio apartment in the mission was Section 8 housing one year ago?! My rent is $4000/month! Oh well, I can afford it.

Jill: I hope you're feeling some tech guilt right now.

Guilt Wash

When you are in a public bathroom and you have no intention of washing your hands after using the bathroom, until a random stranger comes in, at which point you wash your hands out of fear that the person will think you are a dirtball.

Ty was finished peeing, and a man walked into the restroom. He wasn't going to wash his hands, but since the other man was there, he walked to the sink for a guilt wash.

college guilt

When overprotective parents guilt you into not going to the college you want to go. Oftentimes happens when the college is too far away. Used as a last ditch effort to get their kids to stay close to home.

You: I am dealing with such bad college guilt from my parents. They are really against me going to college in Florida but I want to go so bad!

Friend: You should do you what you want to do, it’s not their college experience.

You: You are 100% right, I should trust myself and not be guilt tripped into going where my parents want me to go,

Reciprocal Guilt

1. The act of lashing out at another as a result of one's own guilt. 2. Justifying one's own misdoings by pointing out the actions of others whether true or not.

Simone was cheating on Chris. When she found out Chris was talking to another girl, Simone went ballistic with reciprocal guilt and accused him of all kinds of stuff even tho it wasnt true!!

edit guilt

The guilt you feel from amassing terabytes of video footage from your video camera (GoPro) and then hiding it away from the world because you’re a lazy, worthless, procrastinating human being who wants the final edit to be perfect for your three youtube subscribers.

“Hey Scott, are you bringing your GoPro On our road trip?”
“No, I don’t want more edit guilt”

Grandparent Guilt

The guilt you feel when you have not visited your grandparents in a while. Intensified by the fact that when they inevitability die of old age, you don't want to feel like you didn't see them enough while they where alive.

Mum: "When was the last time you saw your grandparents, they won't be around forever you know"
You: "Stop giving me grandparent guilt, I will go see them soon."
