Line 97:
* One of the more expensive cars in ''[[The Sims 3]]'' is called the "VFN Kompensator".
* In ''[[Fallout: New Vegas]]'', [[Action Girl|Rose of Sharon]] [[Cluster F-Bomb|Cassidy]] thinks that [[Big Bad|Caesar]]'s choice of a Bull for his insignia means he's compensating for something. She also thinks the Two Rangers Shaking Hands statue at Mojave Outpost is this as well.
* In ''[[Mass Effect]]'', Joker seems to make a snarking comment about it when his tiny ''Normandy'' passes the absolutely homhumongousDestinyhumongous ''Destiny Ascension'' by saying that ''"size isn't everything"''. But he then clears it up that he didn't meant to imply that he was feeling inadequate, but that the Ascension's firepower is even more impressive.
** [[BioWare]] also hit this one with ''[[Dragon Age]]'', where [[Token Evil Teammate|Morrigan]], [[Proud Warrior Race Guy|Sten]], and [[The Alcoholic|Oghren]] may all comment on how the [[Mage Tower|Circle Tower]] is a giant phallic symbol. Sten will actually say "Humans, overcompensating as always."
** Party banter between Anders and Carver in ''[[Dragon Age II]]''.
