The Chelsey Effect 

When one, while consuming alcohol, continues to keep drinking in excessive amounts, all in a short period of time, because they believe that they are perfectly fine and nowhere near being drunk. After a short while, the alcohol will hit them like a wall and they will become severely drunk, possibly going from giggly and happy, to lying on the ground and feeling sick in a matter of minutes.

Jack: “Dude, you need to slow down!”
Bill: “Nah man, I’m totally fine. I don’t feel anything.”
Jack: “Man, The Chelsey Effect is gonna hit you so hard.”
