Get the Humanitarian mug.1.) A cynical phrase used to trivialize a pitiful speech that can come off as too sentimental. Also used to condemn minor problems that are exaggerated by the speaker. Originated from Herbert Morrison's emotional radio broadcast of the Hindenburg crash.

"Your dog died? Who was 23 years old? Oh, the humanity!"

"Oh, the humanity! Running away from home is the only justification for being punished because you disobeyed your school's code of conduct!"
