I'm having a major shame attack! I can't believe I did that!

Whatever you do, make sure you don't get a shame attack in the second post. You've done nothing to feel bad about.

Shame Attack

The physical and emotional reaction to doing something particularly shameful.

"What's a 'shame attack?' Like what happens after you do something particularly shameful ... like getting shot down by a 34-year-old."

attack shaming

Sending online messages in war based strategy games, MMORPGs, etc with the intent of shaming the player for attacking.

Jack - “ why are you attacking ME?”
Jill- “ this is not FarmVille, you downloaded a game that has a war aspect, play some defense instead of attack shaming me”
Jack” what?”
Jill “ just give me that pail of water”
