Dishwasher Effect

When a task you enjoyed doing by yourself previously becomes less fun when you're told to do it.

Like when you decide to be a good person and do the dishes, and then your parents ask you to do the dishes. You then no longer want to do the dishes.

You: "I was going to clean my room because I wanted to, but then my mom yelled at me to clean my room. Now I don't feel like cleaning it"

Friend: "Man that's the dishwasher effect."

kuring effect

The Kuring Effect is a phenomenon that refers to the practice of reducing energy consumption by lowering the brightness of electronic displays, such as computer monitors, smartphones, and televisions. This method has become increasingly popular in recent years as people become more conscious of their environmental impact and energy usage.

While the Kuring Effect has proven to be an effective way to save energy and reduce electricity bills, it does come with a downside. People who try to view the display while the brightness is lowered may find it too dark to see anything. This can cause frustration and annoyance, leading some individuals to become angry or upset.

Despite its limitations, the Kuring Effect remains a valuable tool for individuals and organizations seeking to reduce their energy consumption and promote sustainability. As technology continues to advance and new ways of conserving energy are developed, it is likely that the Kuring Effect will play an increasingly important role in helping to create a more sustainable future.

"Using the Kuring Effect has helped me reduce my energy bills and feel better about my environmental impact, but it can be frustrating when other people can't see what's on my screen."

"I appreciate the Kuring Effect as a way to save energy, but I wish there was a way to quickly adjust the brightness when someone else needs to use my device."

"The Kuring Effect has been a game-changer for me in terms of reducing eye strain and saving battery life on my phone, although I have had some issues with it being too dim in certain lighting conditions."

"Oh, fantastic, yet another person using the Kuring Effect to save the planet while simultaneously blinding everyone in the room. Thanks for that, really appreciate it. I mean, who needs to see what's on their screen anyway, right? Let's just all squint and strain our eyes while we try to make out what's going on. Brilliant."

Wheatley Effect

The Wheatley Effect is a behaviour in which a person takes over a successful brand/ company/ rights of media, and ruin it with almost every change they do by choosing stupid decisions

Person 1: "Elon Musk changed that Twitter accounts that don't pay for a monthly subscription will temporarily be restricted to reading 600 posts per day"
Person 2: "that's some kind of Wheatley Effect bullshit"

Person 1: "Elon Musk chose to rebrand Twitter.com into X.com"
Person 2: "wow, the Wheatley Effect must really take place here"

David Zaslav, new CEO of Warner Bros. Discovery following the merger, cancelling Batgirl, a nearly completed feature film, for tax reasons; and continuing to release 2023's The Flash, only for it to disastrously bomb at the box office is an example of the Whealtey Effect
