Binsack Effect

Where as simply by walking through a door you manage to fuck up 60% + of what is going on around you or cause other people to do the same.

"I showed up to work the other day and found out, from the inspector, that the parts that I made were no good. Then the computer that I was working on started running super slow. Before I knew it Rich managed to fuck up what he was working on too... It was a total Binsack Effect!"

bidet effect

What happens when an automatic toilet flushes while you're still sitting on it.

I sat-down to take a dump on the toilet in the Chicago airport, and I had barely moved forward when suddenly it flushed and I was a victim of the bidet effect.

The Siren Effect

When you hear a person sing, and their voice is so beautiful that they suddenly become extremely attractive, even if you didn't think so before. This is applicable to women or men with sexy voices, even though sirens are technically female.

This phenomenon is named after the lusty, half-bird, half-woman sirens of Homer's "The Odyssey." They beguile sailors with their seductive serenading, only to bring the poor individuals to their deaths. The siren effect uses singing to deceive (albeit unintentionally), having the potential to give average-looking persons a façade of sexiness, "luring" others in.

For instance, this is the reason (or one of the reasons) the Phantom in all musical productions of Andrew Lloyd Webber's "The Phantom of the Opera" always manages to be sexy.

Broadway Fan 1: "Oh, my God, Ramin Karimloo is so sexy, even when he's playing a deformed man!"
Broadway Fan 2: "I completely agree, and the siren effect just adds to it. That voice is so seductive!"

Person 1: "Man, Sarah Brightman is so beautiful!"
Person 2: "I don't know, man. I think it's the siren effect."
Person 1: "Well, maybe it's both."

Student 1: "You know, I never found Matt that attractive before, but then I heard him sing. I think I'm in love!"
Student 2: "I know, right? It's a perfect example of the siren effect."

Hipster Effect

when one becomes angry or uninterested in something because everyone else is doing it, loving it, sharing it, hyping it, etc.

George became a victim of the hipster effect when he couldn't watch Game of Thrones because everyone else was so excited about it. George became furious and would often act out in internet posts.
