Avoid overworking, overdoing, or wearing out the object of your effort, especially in regards to artistic pursuits; avoid gilding the lily.
"Man, you know, these young guys, they know all the modes, they know all the chords, they can play high and low and fast, and they can do amazing things, but the one thing they don’t know how to do is leave the bone alone."

when someones peronality is so hideous that he can never be accepted into social society, he will never form any bonds of any kind. he will have no friends, and never get married. he is destined to die alone.

cool guy: dario you are destined to die alone

A Stand Alone Complex is usualy obesrved after a major incident such as a murder. People decide to follow the behaviour of a person, be it fictional or real. It also discribes teamwork in which all the involved members share a common goal and infomation, but work alone to achive it in their own way. Based off the Ghost In the Shell series of the same name.
Anonymous share infomation via image boards and other mediums. They have a single goal yet each member works of their own accord. There is no hirarchy and so are a real example of a Stand Alone Complex
