Observer

To look at a subject through multiple personalities, often with the result of contradicting one's self.

Tony#242: "That hockey team sucks. No matter what they do, they'll never, ever be good."

Tony#243: "I agree. It would take at least two trades to make them a winner."

Tony#242: "Woah... I think that I just pulled an observer on myself."

Observer Blind Spot Bias

A form of bias affecting even those attempting neutrality, where an observer (a journalist, a reviewer, a judge) subconsciously filters information to only register data that confirms their pre-existing narrative or desired outcome. They believe they're being fair, but their perception has a "spot" that's blind to inconvenient facts. This is especially dangerous because the observer's perceived impartiality lends false credibility to their skewed interpretation.

Example: A journalist covering a polarizing protest aims for neutrality. However, due to Observer Blind Spot Bias, they only see and report on the handful of violent acts by one side, framing the entire event as a riot, while their blind spot prevents them from even noticing the peaceful majority and the provocative actions of police, crafting a "balanced" report that's subtly biased.

Designated Observer

When a friend or bro is responsible for telling his friend or bro what he said and did the night before, when the subject being observed is presumably 'shit-faced' or 'fucked up'.

A Designated Observer may tell his bro about a conversation he had with an attractive female he was trying to 'score with' or 'tap'.
