Commentators curse

When a commentator of a sport or other competitive event praises a team or player and then that team/player soon after has something bad happen to them (concede points, injury etc.)
Commentator: Team A is looking really good this half, Team B just can't break their defense.
*Team B immediately breaks the line of defense and scores*
Team A fan: God damn it, why did he have to apply the commentators curse?

Compensating 

1. the act of offsetting an error, defect, or undesired effect (such as a small penis, or lack of being fly) by being or doing something superfluously grandiose (such as flaunting a kick ass ride or building a third floor on a two story building to make its residents fallaciously feel hip).

2. see compensation, compensate
hot blonde girl: You think I should bang that guy with the lambourghini?
hot brunette girl: who? that short guy?!
hot blonde girl: yeah.
hot brunette girl: Ew! No! He's totally compensating.
hot blonde girl: Whatever! He's got a lambourghini.
hot brunette girl: I was talking about his penis.
hot blonde girl: Oooh...ew, never mind.

Endowed Resident 1: Why does that dorm have three floors when the other dorms only have two?
Endowed Resident 2: They're compensating.
Endowed Resident 1: For their picos pequeños?
Endowed Resident 2: That and cause they're really lame.
Endowed Resident 1: True.

status commenting 

procrastinating by logging on to facebook and commenting on everyone's updated statuses...levels of status commenting are directly proportional to the levels of work you are procrastinating from. extreme sufferers have to have the last word on facebook!
Dude, I got no work done today because i was status commenting.
