The Gehe Effect

The Gehe Effect (TGE) is wanting desperately to know absolutly everything about someone you've never met or never talked to, this causes a puppy love-like longing that can turn into aggressive stalking and/or adorably crushing on the one causing the effect. These things can lead to an odd senpai idealism or actual feelings for the effector. Sometimes the effected never actually have any kind of contact what so ever with their effector but prefer to wallow in their unrequited love from afar until the effect passes or the effected looses interest.

Jillian: OMG! Spencer is so crushing on Jill, but he's never talked to her before x3.
Olivia: Lol, Jill is having The Gehe Effect on him.
Jillian: Totes! He wanted me to tell him all about how she likes to be treated, he really wants to make her feel loved! It's so cute!

xerox effect

when the name of a brand has been so widely accepted for referring to an item that many people only use the brand name as the name of the item.

Asking for a kleenex rather than a tissue is a good example of the xerox effect.

Long Effect

The "Long Effect" originates from the the city of philadelphia. It's when someone goes from a gym bro to a slacker and months even years pass from getting gains. The individual starts suffering from delusions of false strength, endurance and overall discipline but really is just a small, fragile, female dog. This disease can last a lifetime and is extremely contagious.

" He said he was coming to the gym today but I guess not lol it must be the "Long effect".
