Most extreme form of embarrassment. No such word meaning exists in the English language, but does in other languages. Ripshaw is when you personally feel embarrassed from the actions of someone else; although you have no direct reason to be. Such as when watching a performance. You feel overwhelmed with embarrassment just by watching someone else. It's when someone one is doing something they should be embarrassed about but they aren't, so you feel it for them.
I felt so ripshaw watching those street performers. They looked so embarrassing and they didn't even care.

when you've done something so cringe you can't stop replaying it in your head and it stops you from getting on with your every day life

Me: bro i have a chronic cringe from what happened earlier I can't concentrate
