Batman Complex

The tendency the general population has to follow and praise those who are slightly above average, instead of those who have achieved much greater things.

Average dude: "Hey, look at this athlete I'm following on instagram, he can bench 100kg!"
Well-read dude: "That's cool. I'm following this chick who can bench 110kg. She's a middle-weight powerlifter. You can follow her too."
Average dude: "I don't know about that..."
Well-read dude: "Maybe you have a Batman Complex then?"
Average dude: "Maybe.. Bye"
