每个人都有不堪回首的往事,当这种难堪事不经意间在脑海回放,你会再次饱尝那种羞愧难当的滋味,而且好长时间都会觉得不舒服,这就是cringe attack(羞愧综合症)。
The so-called cringe attack is to feel massively ashamed of past actions that you have personally done so that the suffered embarrassment tricks your body that you're about to have a heart attack. It is followed by episodes of further awkwardness and feeling uncomfortable for the rest of the day.
所谓的“羞愧综合症”就是对自己过去的行为感到羞愧难当,以至于身体也感到不适。在羞愧综合症爆发后,还会产生一阵阵的尴尬情绪,接下来一天都会觉得不舒服。
Example:
A: I looked at my yearbook today.
B: And are you feeling nostalgic?
A: Not at all dude... the way I used to dress and my haircut were so awful it gave me a cringe attack.
甲:我今天看了我的年鉴。
乙:是不是怀旧了?
甲:才不是嘞……我以前的穿着打扮和发型太可怕了,搞得我“羞愧综合症”都爆发了。
