guilt boner

When nature runs it's course even in places you shouldn't be or shameful situations you shouldn't be in.
My buddy got chewed out by his wife before going to Cheetah's with us and ended up with a guilt boner all night long.

Pyramid guilting

Combines "pyramid" as in pyramid sales, and guilting, to provide a collective descriptor for all those items of social media content that seek to get themselves viral by exploiting human decency and empathy.

Individually they are generally good and moral, but as a collective phenomenon, they are experienced as moral blackmail and only cause empathy fatigue and insidious alienation from the causes they seek to promote.
That pyramid-guilt post was trying to suggest I wasn't loyal to my friends unless I liked, shared and copy-paste posted it to everyone.

Pyramid guilting is usually bad and wrong and 'poor me' attention-seeking but, just sometimes, it really is done for a sufficiently good cause.

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.

pub guilt

The feeling when you've doggedly pursued a healthy lifestyle (for 1 day-forever) and then your work pals invite you for an afterwork drink... and you realise one pint will ruin everything.
Internal monologue: I really want to go out and have fun but I'm already feeling pub guilt - an internal dreading of huge amounts of calories and naughty additives that will ruin my attempts at being healthy.

I'll just go home - can't face the pub guilt.

I can't come out - I'm going to the gym. Best to avoid the pub guilt.

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 money

The money you get from your absent dad who can't be there for you everyday. The money he gives you for all the things you wanted that he couldn't buy those years ago before you had him in your life. Basically, it's daddy absent/issue money from biological dad's who can't always be there for their children.
Dad: Here's $20. Spend it on whatever you want.
Son: Wow! Thanks dad, I'll buy some bobux with this!
Mom to Dad: Stop giving him guilt money just because you're never around that much.
