stormzy effect

When you get 13 year olds who listen to a couple of Stormzys songs then they think they are hard as balls and also try to be roadmen. This is usually on 13 year olds who want to "shank" up people after listening to this music artist.

Friend:You see that kid .
You:Yeah what about him.

Lauren Effect

When all or most of the males in a group or population fall for the same girl. This will generally cause the other girls in the group to irrationally dislike the girl of interest, as all their male friends will talk about her constantly.

Annette: So Jess just won't stop talking about this girl.
Andrew: Anyone I know?
Annette: Her name is Lauren, dark hair, freshman...
Andrew: Oh yeah, Hot Lauren. She's amazing. She smiled at me the other day, so I think I might have a chance. I wrote her this poem...
Annette: Oh god, it's the Lauren Effect.

Oreo Effect

When no one eats any more Oreos because the packaging prevents any more from being eaten, until someone else opens the packaging further, thus making everyone immediately want to eat Oreos once again. Also includes other snacks.

The same goes for those in college, when you are waiting to enter a class or leave a testing session. No one will enter/exit until someone else enters/exits first, thus starting the Oreo Effect.

*everyone playing a game on the television*
*after 5 minutes of no one consuming an Oreo, Jim, the least laziest, decides to tear open the package so three more rows of Oreos are accessible*
*Everyone in the same room as Jim now wants an Oreo all of the sudden, thus starting the Oreo Effect*

*Everyone sits outside of an empty classroom, watching the doorway.*
*Jim, the bold one, decides to enter the class immediately when he arrives*
*Everyone then decides they too want to enter the classroom after Jim, thus starting the Oreo Effect*

*Everyone sits with a finished test, waiting for someone else to leave*
*Jim, the bold one, decides to turn his in when he's done*
*Five or six people simultaneously turn their tests in, thus starting the Oreo Effect*

Perky effect

The Perky effect, in psychology, refers to the process by which visual mental imagery is thought to interefere with visual perception. For example, if a person is instructed to project by imagination a tomato or a banana on a while screen, an a faint image of a tomato or banana is projected, the person may not be able to tell the difference between the real image and that which was imagined. Cheves W. Perky did the pioneering research on this back in 1910. This is the first meaning of the Perky effect.

There is another meaning: the Perky effect is what happens when you go braless on a cold day.

Thomasina loved cold days because of the perky effect.
