Goliath Complex

When someone with size, power, or privilege acts arrogant, entitled, or dismissive toward people they see as “smaller” or “weaker.” Often used for those who ignore their own habit of bullying, belittling, or overestimating themselves just because of their height or status.

Tall dude: “Haha, you’ve got a Napoleon Complex.”
Short dude: “Nah, sounds like you’ve got a Goliath Complex.”

The Ronin Complex

1. A psychological or social state where a person stands firm in their belief or opinion, convinced of their absolute correctness, even when they are met with universal hatred, opposition, and disagreement from every other individual.

2. The unshakable conviction that you are the sole champion of truth, while everyone else is lost, flawed, or simply an idiot. This person has willingly or accidentally become a "ronin"—a lone, masterless warrior—of their own flawed opinion.

3. The rare social phenomenon where an entire group of people achieves perfect consensus on only one issue: the fact that a single, stubbornly confident person is completely wrong.

I tried to show him the math, but he's got a classic case of The Ronin Complex—he's decided he's a lone wolf intellectual and the rest of us are sheep

Don't even try to argue with her about the new marketing plan; she's deep in The Ronin Complex and is convinced our entire team is just too small-minded to see her genius.

complex behavior

When an AI tries too hard to be smart, resulting in hilariously dumb, repetitive, or just plain wrong actions. Think of a supposedly advanced enemy AI that gets stuck on a rock, endlessly repeats the same attack animation, or runs away from the player for no reason. Often caused by overly complicated behavior trees or state machines that the devs didn't fully test.

That boss was supposed to be a strategic genius, but his complex behavior just made him run into walls and heal me instead of attacking – total artificial stupidity!

complexity bias

Complexity bias is a cognitive bias where individuals tend to favor complex explanations, theories, or solutions over simpler ones, even when the simpler ones are more likely to be correct or effective. This preference often stems from the belief that complex ideas are more sophisticated, intelligent, or thorough.

Whenever I ask my friends for advice on a simple problem, they always dive into some wild complexity bias, making everything sound way more complicated than it needs to be!

Owen Grady complex

People who think that they can immediately befriend wild, undomesticated animals. Named after Owen Grady, the main protagonist of Jurassic World, who is known for sticking his hand out to stop his raptors from attacking him

“Did you hear that Jack got mauled to death by a lion he saw on a safari trip?”

“I have.” Omg, he has such an Owen Grady Complex”
