The world would be chaos if not for socially scarring situations. Humiliation and embarrassment are natural parts of life. The world produces its nicest people by subjecting them to the painful torment of childhood humiliation.
Anyway, from humiliation cakes to PowerPoint Karaoke, check out all of the humiliating innovations… just watch out for cyber bullies.
Implications - The massive adoption of the Internet and stratospheric rise of social media sites has created a culture of users who are proud to flaunt their most embarrassing moments and share others' humiliation with their friends. Companies can take advantage of this opportunity by creating guerrilla online ad campaigns that capitalize on someone's misfortune.
