over compensator 

A man who tries way too hard to feel better about having a small penis. Usually seen trying to impress women with cars, cash, clothes, or a macho attitude. This showing off helps them to think that people dont know about the small johnson. Most often, over compensators have no actual personality or character. Usually loners that hide the fact that they really want to kill themselves because of their tiny penises.

compensator truck 

Large pickup trucks ,usually driven by rednecks, typically jacked up with knobby off-road tires despite being too large and heavy to go off-roading with. They may also have an extended cab with a diamond-plate toolbox in the bed, which is perfectly unscratched from not having been used ever. Possibly a pair of cast-aluminum balls hang from the trailer hitch, which may be replaced with a Ford/Chevy/Dodge logo. Common wisdom holds that these trucks are used to make up for what their owners lack in stature, or other parts of the anatomy.
That guy needed a stepstool to climb into his compensator truck.

Pee Calculus

When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
I saw Satantango last night, wonderful film but by the 5th hour I had to start doing pee calculus.
