The Lego Effect

The Lego Effect is a strange phenomenon in which a person actively searches for something they need at a specific moment and despite the fact that they have seen the object in question 20 times when they did not need it, they are unable to find it at the time it is needed.

Where is that that straight 2x6 piece?! I saw it twenty goddamn times when I didn't need it!

Sounds like a bad case of The Lego Effect

Keen Effect

When you start talking shit when you famous but you didn't do anything nor giving credit to someone and start losing subscribers.

I made a youtube channel and got 100k subs by copying other people's code from Github and now I got Keen Effect.

YouTube Effect

The phenomenon in which one navigates to a single video hosted on Youtube (either by URL from email, friend, forum post, by searching, or otherwise) and find yourself clicking on related videos until you wake up hours later to find yourself watching Chocolate Rain for the umpteenth time or enjoying the musical stylings of Rick Astley.

The YouTube Effect can apply to any other video, image, music, etc. site that shows related files or pages on whatever page you are viewing.

Shit, I told myself I'd only watch that ONE Lady Gaga video on YouTube, but before I knew it, it was 3 AM and I was watching mindless crap like fat ladies yelling at skater kids. Damn YouTube Effect...

butterfly effect

The scientific theory that a single occurence, no matter how small, can change the course of the universe forever.

1. A man travelled back in time to prehistoric ages and stepped on a butterfly, and the universe was entirely different when he got back.

2. The flap of a butterfly's wings changed the air around it so much that a tornado broke out two continents away.

Hammaconda Effect

When a male's junk is highlighted by his pants, either purposely or without intention. It often happens when a dude is particularly well endowed and/or is wearing a slimmer cut pant that accentuates the crotchal region. Similar to a pants tent but not an illusion and not necessarily indicative of excitement.

Lance was an average dude but his new jeans had a Hammaconda Effect, making him look particularly well endowed.

Gore Effect

The phenomenon that leads to unseasonably cold temperatures, driving rain, hail, or snow whenever Al Gore visits an area to discuss global warming. Hence, the Gore Effect.

- Australia, November 2006: Al Gore is visiting two weeks before summer begins. The Gore Effect strikes: "Ski resort operators gazed at the snow in amazement. Parents took children out of school and headed for the mountains. Cricketers scurried amid bullets of hail as Melburnians traded lunchtime tales of the incredible cold." (The Age)

- New York, March 2004: "Gore chose January 15, 2004, one of the coldest days in New York City's history, to rail against the Bush administration and global warming skeptics... Global warming, Gore told a startled audience, is causing record cold temperatures." (NY Environment News)

The lynx effect happened when a man sprayed himself with Axe and all the girls started to chase him.
