Landsverk effect

The Landsverk effect, is when you are having a conversation with someone, and that person can only respond with relating your issues and stories through themselves.

They will not actually listen to try understand the emotions and situation you are going through. Instead they will use your words vaguely, as a catalyst, a launching pad, to tell their emotions and situation to you.

As a result, that person will always, somewhat unintended, make sure that the convensation, is gonne be almost exclusively be about them.

I wanted to tell her how i felt, but as soon as I started, she found a way to make it about her. The entire talk was under the Landsverk effect. It really sucked.

Tilde Effect

The tilde effect is a term coined by Samuel Booton, which states that once you discover something and what it does, it will be more featured within your life. Example, if you discover an obscure song on Youtube but the next day you hear it on the radio. The tilde effect is named what it is, due to Samuel not previously not knowing the name of a tilde (~). But soon after his friend told him what it was called, he heard people no longer call it a squiggly, but a tilde.

Guy: *hears song
Guy: huh, this is catchy!

*five years later*
Guy: *finds song
Guy: Oh! That's what it's called!
*song becomes a hit*
Guy: Weird, I guess that's the tilde effect.
