Derived from "The Wizard of Oz," while in the movie, the phrase is intended to mean "don't pay any attention to the wizard not being real," it has evolved into a more literal and deeper phrase in modern times.
The fundamental moral lesson of the "Wizard of Oz" is that you MUST follow, follow, follow the "yellow bricked road" to success with your friends who have no brains, no hearts and no courage. Follow the "yellow bricked road to success (the Emerald City) no matter the cost." The Emerald City representing "utopia" or an oasis like (based in illusion) paradise. Follow the road no matter what to the "Emerald City" and when you ultimately realize your entire journey has been for naught, for a lie, for a fake made up imaginary oasis, you are to remember most importantly of all to ""pay no attention to that man behind the curtain"" or "remember to forget that it's all been for a lie."
In the new movie 'Wicked' the entire plot relies on you following your programming and always remembering to forget that the Emerald City has always been fake, the wizard has never been real. Thus, the entirety of the plot is based on a lie and falls apart RAPIDLY if you don't remember to forget.

Get the Attention Whoremug. When something awful happens, people tend to pay attention to the awful thing, especially the victims. This is unacceptable to the Attention Shrieker who must be the center of attention at all times. Thus, whenever something happens which might draw attention away from them, they will start shrieking. Not only is attention expected, but reassurance and coddling to remind them that though someone just had both of their legs ripped off by an alligator, THEY are the real victim.
When the man jumped off the building, the attention shriekers immediately began shrieking so people would look at them instead of the dying man.

Get the Attentionmug. When with a group of 2 or more puppies, the event that occurs when they all vie for one's attention. When petting one dog, the other(s) climb on top of, nip, or otherwise hurt the first puppy, desperate for the attention of the person.
I was petting one of the puppies from Jade's litter when it turned in to an attention mosh pit - all the other puppies began fighting each other to be petted.
