Hozier Complex

-A man who thinks he has comparable physical and/ or social attributes to musician and socio-political justice voice ‘Hozier’ (specifically in a way that is appealing to women) but is actually deeply problematic and needs to touch grass

-When a mediocre tall white man with long hair thinks he’s the world’s greatest feminist, musician, and empath. (He is just egotistically unstable, generally unformulated as an individual, took acid once, and heard a Hozier album.)
He played me “Work Song” on the guitar and then whined about paying for a Plan B- its his Hozier complex

porcupine complex

A insecurity complex that manifests itself as arrogance, abrasive, cocky and pompous behavior.
I honestly believe that he acts so abrasivly arrogant in order to compensate for how short he is. Everyone knows a man who is so insecure about his height or himself in general comes across that way. For sure, this guy has a porcupine complex by using his harsh, pompous and cocky characteristics as his shield of armor.

Bastard Complex

A term used to describe the pursuit of greatness to compensate for insecurity. Historically, bastards could not inherit titles or wealth. Hence, they had to succeed on their own merit, which motivated them to overachieve to overcome the taboo status placed upon them.
It was said that many great men had a bastard complex such as Che Guevera and William the Conquerer.
