Ascher Effect

When you touch a cold part of your body with a warm part of your body and you have to focus to feel one sensation or the other.

I warmed my cold hand on my warm leg. I experienced the Ascher Effect by focusing on feeling both the warming and the cooling.

The Patrick Effect

The Patrick Effect is a statistical phenomenon discovered in Austria.

It was observed that something e.g. an activity that would usually happen is massively less likely to happen if the person who suggested it is called 'Patrick'.

'Bro, last week he told me we would hang out but I haven't heard anything from him since.'
'Yeah man, that's The Patrick Effect'

The Patrick Effect

The act of correcting your posture because someone next to you is doing it perfectly.

Patrick was rumored to be a dude with such impecable posture that you could see people around him straighten their backs and stand taller. Whenever this happens you can call it "The Patrick Effect".

You see your friend straighten his back because someone next to him is sitting with perfect posture . You might say to him: «You just felt the power of "the Patrick Effect" dude»

Bubblegum Effect

The usage of an unexplained or just flat out dumb lyric in a song which sticks in the listener's mind for the rest of the song, keeping them from paying attention to the rest of the lyrics. As soon as you step on bubblegum, you can't get it off of your shoe, but you always know it's there, and it annoys you for the rest of the day.

Lil Wayne: Weezy F Baby and the "F" is for "Phenomenal!"
will.i.am: Imma work hard, that's my thesis/This beat is a shit, feces
Listener: Dude, as soon as they said that I got seriously bubblegum effected.

The Virginity Effect

This takes effect when a girl loses her virginity to her boyfriend and then proceeds to put up with all his bullshit even to extreme amounts instead of breaking up with him. Causes relationships to last a lot longer than they should and usually ends up with the guy breaking up with the girl.

Chad cheated on Anna and she stayed with him. Virginity effect am I right?

Derrick puts Chloe through so much I swear the only thing holding their relationship together is the virginity effect

Donny punched his girlfriend and they’re still not broken up. It’s gotta be the virginity effect keeping her with him.
