The Stubba Effect is when you run 5 in the back.
I use The Stubba Effect in Fifa 22.
To do bare minimum at last minute, just to complete the task, usually ending up as a failure
Don’t get too relax or else you’ll develop the Castaneda effect.

The moment where one is asked to give examples but their mind goes completely blank

Person B: "Ugh no my mind just went blank"

Snowglobe Effect is when a community, or country (America being a prime example), who lives in the relatively safe confines and pleasant conditions of a 1st world country, crime-free neighborhood, etc, collectively form opinions based on ignorance and with little to no understanding of anything outside their "bubble haven" or echo chamber. This demographic who could be coined as highly opinionated snowflakes, initiate in controversial and political topics with little understanding of politics and living conditions of others around the world.
America suffers from Snowglobe Effect.
The surprise and delight experienced when something is significantly better than originally anticipated. As per Susan Boyle on Britain’s Got Talent. The judges and audience expected a poor performance based on Susan’s frumpy appearance, but once they heard her beautiful voice – were completely overwhelmed and duly erupted into rapturous applause. If Susan had been more ‘visually appealing’, they would have expected a good performance, and consequently been less moved by the experience.
Real Estate Agent: So....what do you think of the apartment, is it what you are looking for?
House hunter: I love it! I was not expecting it to be anywhere as good as this... the pictures didn’t do it justice. Where are the papers? I must sign up today. Do you think I could get a two year lease?
Real Estate Agent: Gotta love The Boyle Effect.... works every time!
The phenomenon of someone looking a term up when they don’t know what it means to make it look like they are of higher intelligence than they actually are.

Oblivious Person: Screw you.
