domenech effect

The situation where a group or organisation succeeds despite, rather than because of management. A group of experienced and motivated employees overcome the handicap of having an incompetent boob running the show. The employees get together and work out how to sort shit out without, or sometimes against, directions from said incompetent management. Named after the hapless manager of the French national team at the world cup in 2006.

Daragh: Who's running the department now?
Stevie: Your not going to believe it, it's Pat!
Daragh: Jesus wept! The place must be like the bar scene from "Gremlins"

Stevie: Nah, we have a full domenech effect running, the boss just sits in his office playing with his executive toys!

Jimin-Effect

The Jimin-Effect ("Jimin" from the kpop group BTS' member Park Jimin) applies to usually smaller-than-average men with a muscular body, an androgynous face and masculine as well as feminine characteristics, fashion sense and demeanor. The main characteristic that defines a Jimin-Effect man is a natural skill to make people fall for him, especially other men who think of themselves as straight and often resort to make an "exception" for the Jimin-Effect man. Other characteristics that can but don't have to be impersonated by a Jimin-Effect man are slight pettiness and good networking skills (via gossiping at events). The Jimin-Effect is named after BTS' Park Jimin, who is famous for coming to terms with his androgyny during his kpop-career and for snatching men left and right.

Man 1: Look at that dude, man!

Man 2: That one? Oh wow... I have a girlfriend, but he's really pretty...
Man 1: Right? He has such a Jimin-Effect...

The Adam Effect

Inspired by the Adam Carolla Podcast, where Adam will complain and/or express wisdom on a subject. Usually around 1 year later that subject will be the topic of conversation among your friends. The same friends who just 1 year before, dismissed your conversation and said "Adam Carolla is an idiot."

Last night Jenna was complaining about a big smelly dog on her flight to Houston. Haha The Adam Effect.

Coppler Effect

Wave phenomenon of traffic compression and decompression, the degree of which varies in relation to the proximilty of a traffic cop, caused by motorists uniformly slowing upon approaching the police and gradually speeding up the further they go after passing.

Joe knew that even though cars were crawling along right at the speed limit, it wasn't just traffic. A few quick glances confirmed it was merely coppler effect, as the radar gun was clearly visible protruding from the patrol car. It was only a matter of minutes before everyone would again be cruising at 75 mph.
