Cellar Guilt

Your grandmother misses you. Why don't you ever call her?!? And your sister . . . you haven't talked to her in weeks? What is wrong with you?!?

And also . . .

The existence of virtual guilt confirms my belief that humans are "guilt machines," which is fortunate given the evidence that guilt functions as a prosocial motive.

I purge often so there is not that much guilt to carry around.
