"To Wong Fu" effect

The tendency of an actor to overcompensate after playing a "girlie" character by taking on overly masculine roles.

Have you ever noticed that since "To Wong Fu" Wesley Snipes hasn't been in a movie where he didn't kick everyones ass? That's the "To Wong Fu" effect I guess.

Black Viking Effect

Phenomenon in historical fiction films in which one or more people of a given race are cast in a setting or time period in which that race was non-existent or rare. Usually done to be politically correct or because the casting company was stupid.

Why does this movie about feudal Japan have white people in it? The director must have been suffering from the Black Viking Effect.

Brick Wall Effect

When talking to some one, whether it be in person, e-mail, or IM, and it feels like your talking to yourself, like all of your words are just bouncing off of a brick wall, and never reach their ears/eyes.

Brick Wall Effect in action:
Guy: I love you so much babe...

Girl: *While texting* Thats nice.

Guy: Babe?

Girl: *still texting* How do you spell Wednesday?

Betty White Effect

The Betty White Effect is a phenomenon that occurs when a celebrity (usually an unlikely one) becomes wildly popular or notorious again overnight. This phenomenon usually occurs on Twitter primarily through retweeting.

From Twitter, it progresses to reach late night shows like Conan O'Brien, Jimmy Fallon and sometimes Jay Leno. Becoming a meme of its own and lasting for a good 15 minutes of renewed fame/notoriety.

While in some cases it may be a good thing (Betty White), most of the time its just Twitter users going along with the trend and unwittingly blowing their popularity out of proportion.

Hey, did you hear Rebecca Black is the most hated person on the face of the earth right now?" "Really? Why? Must be the Betty White Effect.

Jake Paul-effect

Watching/listening or getting any information from a celebrity like the one mentioned above combined with the incapability to understand that their just arrogant/an idiot/uneducated/an 455hole or multiple of similar effects, instead thinking that their cool, savage, awesome etc. The combination of these two things results in your ego going up and IQ going down (in the eyes of other people), which is the core of JP-effect.

-Dude look at this guy, he's so cool! If I could just be like him...
-He's just an arrogant prick with money, don't be fooled by the Jake Paul-effect.
