Climate Overcompensation Syndrome

noun, Psychoanalysis.

1. a pronounced striving to neutralize and conceal the effect of extreme climate on one's person by substituting for it with opposite behaviors.

Examples include wearing shorts in the middle of winter in Minnesota or drinking hot cocoa on a 60 degree day in Florida. This can also include remarks such as, "40 below really isn't that cold in Fargo" or "100 degrees is quite comfortable; we don't have the humidity here in Tucson."

Mark's severe Climate Overcompensation Syndrome led him to shopping for a parka after he felt unprepared for the 50 degree morning in we had last week here in Miami.

Instagram Overcompensation Post

An excessively personal, revealing Instagram post about oneself in response to the premise that people only share their "best moments" on Instagram. While Instagram Overcompensation Posts (IOP) have become a serious trend, distinctly personal information about millions of people is being posted publicly on the world's 6th leading social network (1 billion active users).

Did you see her Instagram Overcompensation Post (IOP) this morning? She shared several paragraphs of detailed information about her family's personal problems.

That guy's IOP the other day was so gnarly, he posted like 5 pictures of himself at the hospital getting hemorrhoid surgery because he wanted to be "real" with Instagram.
