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."

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.

guilt eyes

When a dog shows you the white of its eyes and you know it's done something wrong

Person1: Goldie has peed in the house

Person2: how do you know ?
Person1: she's giving me proper guilt eyes....

Face-guilt

When someone you hardly know/don't particularly like sends you a friend request on Facebook/My Space. Even though you don't really want to be friends, you feel obligated to accept the request.

Jen: Hey, I see on your Facebook page that you're friends with Bob now. When did this happen?

Sam: Face-guilt, man! I felt too bad rejecting the request.

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.

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.
