the brain files it next to physical pain, then replays it for free at 3am
means the painful feeling of being shamed, degraded, or made to feel foolish, especially in front of others.
from From Latin humiliare, 'to bring low, to humble,' built on humilis, 'lowly, on the ground' — which itself grows straight out of humus, 'earth, soil.' So the word literally means being pressed down into the dirt; it shares that same earthy root with 'humble' and, oddly, 'human' — the creature made of, and brought back to, the ground.
