The Mikey Effect

You know it when you feel it.

It is the positive effect you feel when in the presence of Mikey--that jovial guy at the climbing gym with the big personality that everyone knows.

The Mikey Effect is strongest when Mikey gives you effection.

"Bro, did you send the gnar at the climbing gym today?"
"Hell yeah! Thanks to The Mikey Effect my psych was high and I crushed it."

"Do you know that feeling when you're so touch-starved from the pandemic and then you go to the climbing gym and Mikey pats you on the shoulder and says, 'good job, bro.'? It felt soo good that when I got home I vaped 10:1 then reconnected with my son!"
"That's called The Mikey Effect!. You are blessed, my dude."
