Ground swallow me up or GSMU is a phrase which sums up the overall desire to escape an embarrasing or awkward situation.
While the request for a time-machine might seem a more dignified approach to being swallowed up by the ground which seems a cruel fate. GSMU is more fitting to identify feelings of desperation and guilt.
