Schochs have become rare in our time. They used to be known as malicious Bitterlich imposters. All a Schoch wants is to be like a Bitterlich; but since achieving such a goal is impossible, the common Schoch accrues resentment and becomes more and more bitter the more he sees his attempts to be like Bitterlich fail bitterly.

The act of foiling someone's credibility or success by presenting negative facts about you at the most inopportune moment.

To throw someone under the bus.
