A guilt sticker (or usually a packet of them) is included in non-profit promotional mailings designed to make the recipient feel guilty in the event that he/she does not donate. They often have photos of symbols (e.g. kittens) the recipient is likely to identify with, or are printed with the recipients address to serve as return-address labels for letters, or both.
"I put this Sierra Club guilt sticker on my notebook because I thought the wolf was cool. Now every time I see it I feel terrible that I didn't donate."

What you feel when you watch a documentary about climate change and remember all the crap you just ordered online.
"Wow, this episode of Patriot Act is really disturbing. I had no idea fast fashion was creating so much waste. Hey, are you okay? You look like you're going to throw up."
"Yeah... just thinking about the 10 shirts I don't need that'll be arriving on my doorstep tomorrow and having some serious retail guilt. I'm an asshole."

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.

The half second of fleeting guilt an alpha male feels as he out lifts a once equal bro before his instincts kick in and he adds another plate his bench press to cement his pack leader status.
