Shame-Rays

The look someone gives you when you to silently inform you of the uncoolness you may accidentally be radiating. They are do so by raining their shame rays down upon you. Shame Rays are usually a silent expression on the face of an onlookers witnessing your public gaucherie, but may be accompanied by a 'wait- what?' and raised eyebrows.
'On Friday when I was drunk, I tried to explain to a bunch of my co-workers what 'Neat Pet Group' is on Facebook and how it fills my newsfeed with pics of cool dogs... and how this video popped up where this dog didn't know how to respond to the command 'get down', so it did all the tricks it knew...and well, then they gave it a treat anyway because that was cute, you know?' Everyone was silent during the build-up to and post- this rather considerable anti-climax. I felt their shame-rays raining down on me as I plowed on through the increasingly staggered and awkward story to the inevitable and disappointing conclusion. So that was my evening.

People were so mother-shaming toward Sarah by telling her that she wouldn't be able to be a mother since she was a teenager, single, and poor, that she felt pressured into an abortion and later had PTSD from it.
