Superiority Complex

When one person feels that their own personal value and importance is greater than it actually is.
Marie and Andrea are making buttons for a fundraiser.
Marie holds the button maker.
Andrea says smugly, "Oh please. Let me make that."
Marie makes a button, but she mistakenly does a wrong step and it comes out less than perfect.
Andrea makes a invidious face. "I told you I should have made that."

Now, class, is this an example of superiority complex?

Inception Complex

The Inception Complex takes place in the following manner.

1) Someone says something small; Plants something in your head.

2) It grows in your mind. It slowly becomes all you can think about until it completely consumes you, and even comes to define you.

Reference to the movie "Inception".
"Yo, Jake. What's your issue?"

"I dunno. My girlfriend said that she wishes someone would understand her and could relate to her. Major Inception Complex going on right now".

Inferiority complex

People who have an inferiority complex assume other people have a superiority complex, especially tall people. The reality is no one is inferior or superior to the next person, and that every person is also as different as a fingerprint. As long as that's true, equality doesn't exist since equality means exactly the same. Even identical twins are not exactly the same. The trouble is when people take the statement that no two people are the same and turn it into a statement that involves better than or less than.
Guy 1- There's no such thing as true equality, since true equality would mean everyone was exactly the same, and the world would be boring if it were like that.
Guy 2- First off, don't make me feel less than like you're better than me, I'll defend anybody that you make feel that way, we are all equal. You're saying you're better than me.
Guy 1- No, I didn't mention anybody being better or worse than you. I know what I said, I said that equality doesn't exist since no two people are exactly the same, and the world would be boring if they were the same. You're adding the rest and expecting nobody to react to your bullshit. Your inferiority complex is as much to blame for an argument as the attitude you said I had.
