vicarious embarrassment

The very uncomfortable sympathetic feeling experienced while you watch someone else embarrassing themselves. This feeling is often intensified when the person embarrassing themself is not aware of how embarrassing their behavior is. In this case it is more like you are feeling the embarrassment on their behalf.

George: OMG, dude...this talent show is killing me. The fat girl dancing to 'Ice, Ice, Baby'...
Dude: I know man, I know...all the wrong things are jiggling--
George: --And her dancing! Everyone is laughing and she just keeps going. It's like a trainwreck right now. I don't even want to watch!
Dude: Total vicarious embarrassment right now, man.
George: Ugh. Let me know when it's over.

vicarious

1. To experience something through watching another's activities.

2. A great song by Tool, where in it the lead singer Maynard says that he is Vicarious because by watching people die, he himself can feel death.

1. I watched people sky-diving and felt a vicarious rush of excitment.

2. When I went to a Tool concert they played Vicarious.

incidit in scyllam, cupiens vitare charybdim

The Latin phrase "incidit in scyllam, cupiens vitare charybdim" comes from Greek mythology in the story of Odysseus known also as Ulysses. Scylla and Charybdis were rocks on either side of a narrow inlet. The phrase means trying to avoid Charybdis one founders on Scylla. It represents the idea of having to choose between two evils and has the force of being "on the horns of a dilemma," "between the devil and the deep blue sea."

A Sanders voter withholding a vote from Clinton will run into a Trump presidency, incidit in scyllam, cupiens vitare charybdim!

vicar’s portion

A vicar’s portion is a very small cup of tea one would serve to a vicar to ensure a fleeting visit.

“insert name of friend you dislike popped by the other day for tea - I gave him a vicar’s portion of course”
