The Cheerleader Effect

The Cheerleader Effect is when a group of women seem hot, but only as a group. Just like with Cheerleaders they seem hot, but take each one of them individually - sled dogs

" I am not impressed with the talent in here tonight. " says Barney.
" Look, there's hot group of girls over there. " says Lily.
" That, my friend is the cheerleader effect, look at each of them individually. " says Barney.
" Woah, I see what you mean! " says Lily.

The Cobra Effect

The term Cobra Effect originated in an anecdote set at the time of British rule of colonial India. The British government was concerned about the number of venomous cobra snakes in Delhi. The government therefore offered bounty for every dead cobra. Initially this was a successful strategy as large numbers of snakes were killed for the reward. Eventually, however, enterprising people began to breed cobras for theincome. When the government became aware of this, the reward program was scrapped, causing the cobra breeders to set the now-worthless snakes free. As a result, the wild cobra population further increased. - The apparent solution for the problem made the situation even worse - .

The Cobra Effect describes the law of unintended consequences. Although it sounds like it should be the name for an AMAZING movie starring Vin Diesel.

Cordell Effect

When a really smart student tutors a portion of the class and raises the exam average such that the mean grade shifts, making it more difficult for the rest of the class to get ahead of the curve.

Cordell helped eight of his friends understand difficult concepts and get high grades on exams, making the test average significantly higher than the previous year, resulting in the Cordell Effect.
