One of da most common snide-effects is when da intended victim of one's verbal bile complains to an authority figure about da criticizer's harsh words, and then said arrogant speaker gets in a load of Dutch for running his mouth.

The Ian Effect

When you’ve dealt with so many fuck boys named Ian, that you will swear to never date anyone named Ian again.

He’s really hot, but it’s The Ian Effect. I’m guessing we will just hook up - he’s not marriage material AT ALL.

The displacement effect

When a heterosexual, cisgender male is incorporated into a gender-queer, queer, female friend group burdened with the patriarchal wrongdoings experience by the other members of the friend group despite not being associated with the male majority. For a man to fall under the displacement effect, he can only be incorporated into a singular group.

Andie (she/they): I hate men
Max (they/them): speak your truth Andie!
Matt (he/him): guys I'm right here
Andie (she/they): it's ok Matt, you're part of the displacement effect.

The Coldplay effect

The Coldplay effect is named for the band Coldplay, and is used to describe something that is iconic and respected, but generic and only the favourite thing of a small number of people.

"Spaghetti bolognese is a pretty average meal when you think about it, but so many people enjoy it."

"You could say it's affected by the Coldplay effect."

island effect

An effect that happens to men in regards to only seeing ugly women for an extended period of time, in which they begin to see ugly women as attractive.

This consistently happens to men who work too much, and dont go out often. Especially in low paying, night shift jobs.

Its called the island effect because one is isolated from the attractive, outside world.

Duderbroseph: I dunno what it is about Esmeralda, but she really seems hot lately

Sane person: uhhh... when was the last time you went somewhere besides work and home?

Duderbroseph: i dunno, like a month?

Sane: Island effect.

Duderbroseph: Shit...
