Get the Shit Proxymug. "Ambition by proxy" refers to a situation where someone delegates ambitious tasks, projects, or goals to another person without actively participating or contributing to the effort themselves. This term implies that the person is seeking to achieve success or recognition vicariously through the efforts of others, rather than taking on the challenges directly.
When my boss constantly assigns me high-profile projects but never offers any support or guidance, it feels like he's practicing ambition by proxy, wanting the glory without putting in the work.
You know when your wife comes up with ideas for projects for you to do but doesn't plan on helping at all? That's ambition by proxy.

Get the ambition by proxymug. A phenomenon in which if you watch a person (whether it be a vlogger, an actor, or an influencer) talk openly about their sexual desires with an especially salacious attitude, you start thinking about the object person of your affections/desires. while pondering that, you realize just how much you thirst for that person. As a result, while continuing to watch the content creator speak expressively about their "horniness," you lust after the object of your affections, which subconsciously causes you to be horny for that content creator BY PROXY. this can result in you: "missing sexual intercourse, i.e., missing d**k or p***y, wanting to eat someone out, etc.," or "getting the urge to pleasure oneself."
This is a shortened version of the phrase "horny for someone by proxy."

Proxy Slur: A term or phrase that is commonly used in a seemingly innocent or neutral manner, but has been assigned a covert, derogatory meaning by specific groups or in certain contexts. The offensive connotation is not apparent to those outside the specific group or context.
"Neighbor": In your example, the word "Neighbor" is a regular term used to describe someone living nearby. However, if two or more parties have agreed to use it as a stand-in for a racial slur, it becomes a proxy slur in their specific interactions.
"Apple": Imagine a scenario where a group uses the word "Apple" to derogatively refer to a person from a certain city or region, unbeknownst to others. In this context, "Apple" functions as a proxy slur.
"Blue Sky": In a hypothetical case, if "Blue Sky" is used among a particular group to negatively refer to a certain ideology or belief system in a covert way, it would be a proxy slur in that context.
