Complete global saturation

Something cool supervillains who wear sunglasses and have David Bowie accents strive to achieve. May or may not be said with long pauses between each word, followed by a deep breath. Typically foiled by those pricks from the BSAA.
Uruboros will be released into the atmosphere, ensuring complete global saturation.

High School Girl Complex

Occurs when a girl of high school age, likes a member of the opposite sex at the same high school age, however when the said member of the opposite sex is also interested, and asks the girl to a dance or movie, the girl declines somewhat politely putting off that she is not interested even though she is interested. Further, she wants him to make a move, but does not want him to make a move, putting the boy in an impossible and lose-lose situation; forcing him to make a choice between rejection, or isolation. The reasoning behind this complex is not yet known.
High School Girl Complex: Jessica likes Albert, Albert knows this, Albert likes Jessica. Albert asks Jessica to a dance put on by the high school, Jessica declines. Albert, confused and perplexed, is unsure about how to continue with Jessica.

Achilles Complex

The condition that some people have where their fatal flaw is hubris. Hubris is having too much pride to the point of thinking that they do not need help and can do anything on their own without outside help, even when the situation is a snipe with a shotgun.

The condition comes from Achilles in the Trojan War where the gods told him he could not kill all of the Trojans without help but he charged on anyways, which led to his death. The pride inside of him made him charge into battle so he could keep his pride instead of lose his pride, and then his honor.

It's probably best to let the person with Achilles Complex to find out their own way that they will need help with the task at hand. If you insist on helping before they ask, you will miss one thing and another will happen. You will miss them actually asking for help (they just rejected all of their pride), and jumping in before they ask will just anger them. All you can do is wait for their call for help. Then, if you are not a douche, you will help. If you are a douche, then you should kill yourself before the person with Achilles Complex does.
Me: Hey check out the hot blondes over by the pool.
Sam: You will just be shot down. Look around.
Me: I'm doing it anyways.
Sam: You really do have the Achilles Complex. Want my help?
Me: Hell no. If I wanted it, I would have asked.
Sam: Ok. Good luck.

Sennhauser Complex

The idea of making derogatory, or offensive jokes toward another person in order to achieve social attachment.
Sarah (very provocative female): "Hey are you going to the game tonight."
John (a Sennhauser Complex patient): "Yeah, but your vagina is loose... whore! GOT HER!" (gives a self-hi-five)
