Pomelo effect

You don't see something until you actively keep thinking about it, and it was always there all the time but you didn't notice.

"Ever since I fell in love with the Thai girl I've been seeing Thai pomelos everywhere,"

"Nitwit, those pomelos were always there. You're just experiencing the pomelo effect"

The Germ Effect

When trying to call attention to the flaws of an opponent only to have your own flaws "outed" as a result of personal digging. Similar to the Streisand Effect in the legal community, the Germ Effect calls attention to yourself in an unwanted and unanticipated fashion. The phrase is derived from the great "2011 Yahoo Fantasy Football thread between 'Coach Germ' and 'Teddy Ruxpin.'"

Coach Germ tried to give me shit me for my 17th round pick, but upon taking a look at his team, his antics had "The Germ Effect" when it was discovered that he has 3 #4 wide receivers and 3 running backs who are time-shares.

The ROBLOX Effect

The ROBLOX Effect is a situation where a person of ROBLOX, typically a developer, gains mass attention to their experience, causing the developer(s)/person(s) involved to be attracted or gain interaction with minors. The said attraction to minors is almost always sexual attraction. This is the ROBLOX effect, (also called Pedophilia).

ROBLOX Developer: "Wow.. my game just hit 100 million visits!"

Person on Discord: "Another ROBLOX dev suffering from the ROBLOX effect.."

*Proceeds to reveal haunting dialogue that the ROBLOX developer said to a minor*

the bell effect

When a past hookup continuously pops up in your life no matter how much time has time past. If you say their name 3 times they will appear sometime in the near future. You will never escape them, even on your wedding day. They will always be there.

Me: You'll never believe who just added me on snapchat after 3 years of silence
Friend: Weren't we just talking about him the other day?

Me: I knew we shouldn't have said his name! it's the bell effect!

The Commodore Effect

Going to your mates house for a few too many, passing out then waking up at 4:15 in the morning, realising you have to get up for work at 6 and going home. Skulling back half a litre of milk and having a tactical nap before work.
Usually not speaking from experience or anything.

Wow, did you see frogface last night? He had the commodore effect! What a legend.
