Talk:Walk of shame

message: We might want to mention the root of the name, which is probably a play on "Walk of fame." 71.169.35.161 (talk) 13:12, 22 February 2010 (UTC)

message: Why isn't it called Walk of Pride?  After all, getting laid is nothing to be ashamed for... 85.125.140.66 (talk)
:Good idea.  If there are any sex-positive websites that we could use as a source, we could certainly mention that some feel that it ought to be called the walk of pride. Darkfrog24 (talk) 23:08, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Probably because "Walk of Embarrassment", while more accurate, has too many syllables to catch on. While at least in developed cultures there obviously is no shame in sexual relations—ad hoc or otherwise—depending on the person it may be embarrassing having your recent activities put so prominently on display. It's an invasion of privacy, of sorts, and being self-inflicted makes it all the more frustrating. Konaya (talk) 20:38, 31 May 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: Why ''Walk of Shame''?

message: This article has no place in an encycopedia. It's not even remotely encyclopedic and it deserves to be nomiated for deletion. ShizuokaSensei 08:30, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Absolutely agree. I was going to say that in harsher words. Gronky 15:23, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

text: If anyone nominates this for deletion again, please notify me so that I can comment. Gronky 20:06, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

text: How about just deleting the unbacked assertions, POV and unsourced material? That would delete much of the page. The references seem to suggest that people do use the phrase as a slang term, which would warrant some sort of mention in wikipedia. Cazort 23:03, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Actually, I'm for keep. There are plenty of examples where words or phrases which have entered into popular usage are made into articles or even featured articles (though I don't generally support these FA nomiations). See truthiness. Aran|heru|nar 09:08, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

text: I've removed most (if not all) of the original research. The article still has a ways to go before it will be up to Wikipedia's standards, but it's a bit better. --DearPrudence (talk) 00:37, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

text: The fact that it "exists" doesn't mean there needs to be an encyclopedia article on it. 108.254.160.23 (talk) 18:04, 16 March 2013 (UTC)

message: What is this? I think this article needs to take the walk of shame. This is embarrassing. It looks like something a college student typed up after a party. At least this gave me a good laugh.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.161.151.31 (talk) 02:21, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  What an embarrassment to Wikipedia 

message: When I first clicked on this link, I thought it was about the process by which someone expelled from (some) military schools for violating the honor code must leave school after packing, in civilian clothes, down a walkway to the front entrance lined with cadets, all of whom turn their back as the expellee approaches (This is depicted in the film version of The Lords of Discipline). Anybody have anything on this? Daniel Case (talk) 16:44, 31 May 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Another meaning 

message: trail of tears. I have seen these get mixed up by students, it would help with reports.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 158.65.242.28 (talk) 17:54, 27 April 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I am also seeing this mixup amongst students, re: trail of tears - may want to consider this notable enough to mention in both articles.  --Dustball (talk) 22:08, 14 April 2016 (UTC)

message: What's wrong with wearing clothes from the day before and how do strangers know the circumstances? I doubt that people wait at their windows for someone to show up. In crowded buildings, no one cares or knows that you don't live there. Why is there shame if no one recognizes you? --92.75.214.212 (talk) 21:04, 28 May 2017 (UTC)
