The first rule of peacocking is : don't tell the audience what it already knows.
This 'rule' refers to a maxim in social science literature that a person/thing trying to show status should not be repetitive / redundant and give the audience what they already know would happen.

Get the First Rule of Peacockingmug. The person, or people, in the office who, like a literally injured peacock, make a lot of noise and ruffle alllll their feathers (and yours too) to give the illusion of being ~super~ productive, but actually achieving fuck all.
Person 1: Wow, that Dale has been racing about on the phone all day! He looks super busy!
Person 2: Um no, he's an Injured Peacock; making all the noise and flapping about the place but not actually doing anything.

Get the Injured Peacockmug. To focus more on the appearance than the depth. Music is repetitive, lacks true feeling within the lyrics.
Their outfits are incredibly showy and especially eccentric. They throw their voice and hold notes for no reason as the crowd cheers like it's an amazing feat.

Get the negro peacockmug. It's when a man gets dressed up in outrageously awesome outfits, and go out and confidently wear that shit so everyone can and will see and notice him. It's a way to attract the opposite sex
Girl- "do you see what he's wearing"
Guy- " the way he peacocking its hard not to notice" he is saucey tho.

Get the Daisy Peacockmug. When a celebrity has come back from a somewhat enforced social media hiatus (normally after alledged sexual misconduct)
A celebrity will Peacock and say theyre back on SM but make no mention of the allegation, ignoring them
