a cocky person. (typically
male.)
braggart. egotist. blowhard.
a tentpiece usually believes that he has skills or qualities which he simply does not--or in the off chance that he does, it is in an extremely limited capacity, at best.
this over-
confidence often manifests itself as vanity, bossiness, conceit, or an overly-cocksure
air.
those in the company of a tentpiece regularly
must exercise great restraint from verbally and physically bitch-slapping him.
'tentpiece' makes reference to the phrase 'pitching a tent,' (i.e. tentpieces tend to be turned on primarily by themselves). a tentpiece oft overcomes for various (commonly sexual) shortcomings with blatant arrogance and conceit in an
effort to prove their masculinity.
god, lucien thinks the
sun rises and sets to his admittedly toned, but misshapen ass....what a tentpiece.

fabio look-alike contest. he could be such a tentpiece, and she knew she'd never hear
the end of it.
