Peacockism 

An attitude displayed by one who structs around the office and enforces their new found power from a promotion in an unprofessional way.

Say Sue did you notice that every since Tina got her promotion she's been an absolute tyrant to everyone in the office? --I know, she's suffering with peacockism and there is no cure for it at the moment.

peacocking

Peacocking means dressing for attention. Just like Peacock's use their feathers to get a mate.

Peacocking is meant to make opening a girl easier, but if you're not congruent with your look (like, if you look like you're gay and you try to hit on a girl), wires are gonna get crossed somewhere and you're gonna blow yourself out.

moral peacocking

When a person is OUTRAGED on social media so that their friends will think they're a good person. Moral peacocks are famous for spreading fake memes because they don't actually read the news or care IRL.

If you really cared about the Middle East, you'd *know* the American news already reported that attack. Stop moral peacocking!
