A combination of the Streisand Effect, Mandella Effect and the Dunning-Krueger Effect all rolled into one. When a person is too dumb to admit defeat and they cope so hard it glitches the matrix.

"Dude take your L like a man and move on, you don't wanna invoke The Billy Carson Effect and make it worse."

When you start listening to a band or artist you never listened to before (or even heard of) because you met someone who listens to them and got a crush on them. Named after the finnish gothic rock band HIM. It started from when people would meet Diksi or Joca, then they'd get a crush on one of them and start listening to their favourite band HIM.
A: And then she said bye back and I put on my headphones and listened to Curta'n wall. Ohhh man.
B: Since when did you start listening to Curta'n wall?!?!
A: Since forever duhhh
B: Shut up dude, you've been listening to them ever since you met Jane.
A: Aw man, it's the HIM effect once again...
