The Tristan Effect

When a new idea/object/person is introduced that everyone likes at first but everyone slowly starts to see through the cracks and the subject does not change.

Person 1: did you used to like family guy?
Person 2: yeah it used to be really good
Person 1: so sad it fell victim to The Tristan Effect

Ferguson Effect

The unnecessary delay a Police Officer takes before lawfully taking someone's life. An unnecessary delay that puts an officer in grave danger himself because he is fearful of unjust criticism and scrutiny from the media, critics, citizens, celebrities and politicians, etc. The fear a Police Officer experiences for being wrongly accused of being a racist in a fatal shooting.

That cop almost got wasted because of the Ferguson Effect waiting too long to shoot Jimmy Jones fearing he would be called a racist.

The Ariel Effect

A phenomenon in which mystical forces appear to inexplicably throw a workplace or party into chaos or unprecedented popularity.

"This party is stricken with the Ariel Effect, what with the droves of police and gangsters piling out of clown cars with Tommy Guns. Got Damn!"
