An idea first proposed by George Carlin, it serves as a credible explanation for most fights, conflicts, and wars perpetrated by and involving men.
"That's what all that asshole jock bullshit is all about. That's what all that adolescent macho-male posturing strutting in bars and locker rooms is all about: it's called 'dick fear'. Men are terrified that their pricks are inadequate, and so they have to compete with one another to feel better about themselves, and since war is the ultimate competition, basically men are killing each other to improve their self-esteem."

Get the dick fear mug."The Fear" is the sense that you have done yourself some lasting damage after a night of drinking. It's symptoms are:
- A feeling that you are going to die soon (and not just due to other hangover symptoms);
- A sense that people or organizations are out to get you;
- Angst that you may have offended, inappropriately touched or physically attacked someone the night before;
- Foreboding about the next time you meet the people or return to the bar where you degraded yourself the previous night.
The fear is often accompanied by "The Remorse" where you are also genuinely ashamed and sorry for the way you have behaved, as well as simply frightened for the sake of your own wellbeing.
