1. the act of offsetting an error, defect, or undesired effect (such as a small penis, or lack of being fly) by being or doing something superfluously grandiose (such as flaunting a kick ass ride or building a third floor on a two story building to make its residents fallaciously feel hip).

2. see compensation, compensate

hot blonde girl: Whatever! He's got a lambourghini.
hot brunette girl: I was talking about his penis.
hot blonde girl: Oooh...ew, never mind.
