Noun: The acute feeling caused by observing a person's small but significant behavior that makes you feel so embarrassed you want to crawl out of your skin or sew your eyes shut. Typically, the cause of spell goes unacknowledged in the moment, by both the source of the spell, as well as the witnesses. Can leads to body chills, excessive cringing, and flashbacks to the particular moment of spell.

A void in modern internet literacy, which has been quickly replaced by the need to express often pointless and poorly-thought-out ideas as quickly as possible. This includes the shortening of a three letter word into one letter (you-u) and a two letter word into a number (to-2).
