Peacock's Law

First Rule of Peacocking

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.

John just violated the First Rule of Peacocking when giving his acceptance speech! he acted like no one knew why they were all there when he told them again about his achievements.

Peacocking

Trying to impress someone by being intentionally more flashy than normal.

This everyday pick-up going isn't cutting it anymore, we're going to have to go peacocking if we want any game.

We need to go out peacocking and pick up some hoes.

Peacocking

The display of a fragile male ego; does something small that he wants a lot of attention for so he brings it up excessively.

"My boyfriend fixed the toilet at work and he's been peacocking all week."

"One of them will get motivated one day and spend the day doing it. After that, they'll walk around making a HUGE deal about how they did it for weeks. 'Peacocking', I believe it's called."
