Swing Guilt 

a term used by former swing dancers to describe the lame guilt trip recieved from current swing dancers.
"awwww you should really come back dancing, its really gotten good!" which is a lie, its still lame.

"Oh where have you been?? you too good for us?"
Ask one more time and the answer is yes.

"Wow I ran into Jimmy today, what a dork... he kept slathering the Swing Guilt on"

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.

BETA 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.
Out lifting my best friend left me with a ton of BETA guilt, but it had to be done.

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."
