A non-Asian person who relentlessly adopts Asian culture, food, and its holidays is Asian by proxy. They know more about Korean barbecue or Vietnamese pho than should be allowed. They understand the eye contact paradox (Westerners insist on eye contact as respect, Asians refuse to make eye contact to elders to honor them.)
Look at blondie, ordering sushi, no idea what she asked for, but Asian by proxy.
Feeling embarrassed for somebody when they are doing something embarrassing

Refers to where Person A wishes to give Person B a big ol’ "arms-around", but is presently unable to conveniently/acceptably approach Person B to do so. Person C, however, does happen to be in a position to “administer da lovies” to Person B, and so Person C cheerfully/obligingly gives Person B a hug in lieu of da warm squeeze dat Person A had wanted to give Person B.
Proxy hugs can be administered for a wide variety of reasons, some of the more common instances are:
(1) The person wanting to give the hug is presently wedged away back behind some tall objects or in a tightly-confined space to attend to a necessary task back there, and so it would be excessively difficult for him to clamberingly extricate himself just to give the other person his hug, and then have to slither himself right back there again to finish his job.
(2) The person wanting to give the hug is all “sticky-yucky” from a hot/dusty/messy task he’s presently engaged in, and so he doesn’t want to soil the clean/neat garments/skin of the huggee.
(3) The person wanting to give the hug presently has a contagious illness, and so he does not want to touch or even come near anyone else for fear of spreading germs.
(4) The person wanting to give the hug is not actually present at the huggee’s location; maybe they are just talking on the phone, and the would-be hugger is super-grateful to the huggee for one of more nice things that he did for him. Something like this happens several times in the “Bionic Woman” series --- the Secretary of State wants to thank Jaime Sommers for her valorous services, but he is either super-tied-up with urgent matters of state or has to be out of the country at the time, and so he asks Oscar Goldman to thank Jaime for him.
A post intended for a large audience yet posted on a single person's wall to appear more genuine. Since proxy wallposts are visible through homepage feeds, one can advertise a trait of oneself that would be construed as bragging if in the form of a status.
Suppose you want to advertise to your friends that you are caring and social. This is impossible to brag about, so instead just find your friend who shares the most mutual friends and write this gem of a proxy wallpost:
"We had such a great time last week! I miss you so much <3"
Soon, everyone you know will see it in their feed. And, unlike a status, no one will call you on it for fear of you playing the None Of Your Business card.
