Guilt Trip

When one tries to make you feel bad for something when it is either out of you're control or in hindsight

Grant said "you can bring you're girlfriend to this party but not mine". Guilt tripped.

Burner guilt

A specific type of guilt experienced by veteran burners who are able to easily obtain a Burning Man ticket through their camp year after year, knowing full well how difficult it is for newer burners to obtain theirs. Burner refers to someone who attends the annual Burning Man festival located in the Black Rock Desert of northwestern Nevada.

Paris Hilton's Burner guilt quickly vanished once she arrived in Black Rock City and reunited with all of her celebrity campmates.

Band Guilt

When you’re director makes you feel guilty for not practicing so you pity practice (and you don’t get shit done).

My director was yelling at us to practice. I have total band guilt.

I didn’t practice at all this year, and now we have our last concert. I’m struck with band guilt.

guilt-control

When someone, or some party, attempts to use the concept of guilt (not necessarily actual guilt) in order to manipulate a person or people, into doing something that would be against their best interest. It's a tactic of manipulation that does not require actual guilt, just the presumption of guilt. Usage of the term asserts against the rhetorical trap of implied guilt, by summarily denying the implied guilt and exposing the guilt as an intended form of control.

party a: 10 years ago you got into that accident, and I know you say it wasn't your fault, but it's probably in our best interest if we never let you drive again.
party b: Your attempts at guilt-control are obvious, so please stop.

Hoagie Guilt

The feeling of emotional discomfort one gets when trying to leave the Hoagie Folk.

I’m getting massive Hoagie Guilt from my boss. All I want to do is quit because he keeps drawing me deeper into his illegal Hoagie Empire cluttered with Hoagie Folk.

Tweet guilt

The feeling one has before or after tweeting about something self absorbed and good for nothing more than gleaning attention. This feeling is usually exaggerated after a twitter user has read the june issue of wired that describes people that practice such 'twittering' as tools.

I'm laying off twitter until I can focus on tweeting for the good of humanity, instead of myself. I'm so full of Tweet guilt now.

When you're at the bar and pick up a middle aged woman with a muffin top.

Last night I was at the bar and I picked up a guilt muffin.
