convolution factor 

a scale from one to five (1-5) with five being the most severe, that describes the way someone will adjust their speaking and writing to sound more intelligent or experienced to impress someone they want to date; while intending to sound worldly, people employing a high convolution factor often come across as confusing or just plain idiots

When Linda said she didn't know anything about cars, Brian started speaking at about a convolution factory of 4 to impress her.

Consolation Text

When you send out a text to one of your closest friends in the event that the people you are with ignore you, therefore, making it awkward. It makes it look like you are doing something, and not just a complete loser.

*You Texting*: Hey bro, this is a consolation text, my girlfriend went talk to some people I don't know.

*Friend Texting*: Dude, I feel your pain..my girlfriend does that to me all of the time.

Relief or comfort in sorrow or suffering.

Consolation Fries 

The french fries in the bottom of the fast food bag. Just when the disappointment sets in that you've finished your fries, you are pleasantly surprised to find a few more Consolation Fries at the bottom of the bag.

I was sad when I finished my fries before I got home, but at least there are Consolation Fries left.

Consolation Success 

Consolation success or a consolation achievement is when you put a lot of effort and concentration into achieving something or getting better at something, and only after you've tried for so long that you begin to give up, do things start to "work out" for you. Often, it is more of a slap in the face than a happy acquisition. The consolation comes in giving you your success only because you worked yourself so hard that you gave up and life begins to feel sorry for you. God's way of playing keep away perhaps.

"After so many years in the movie business and his involvement in tonnes of great films, Christopher Plummer only received his first oscar in 2012, at the age of 83. That consolation success must feel more painful than if he retired with no award at all."
