The Markle Effect

A castle built on sand. Corrupted by one persons touch. To be royally f*cked up. To rot from the inside.
She swanned in and acted as though she was Queen. We thought the extra publicty would be beneficial. In truth the whole thing turned to sh*t. They call it The Markle Effect. We are royally f*cked.

The Mel Effect

Based on world-renown virtual youtuber "Yozora Mel", it is the illusion caused by the person in question wearing clothing that comes no higher than the upper breast area, and just before the shoulder. This illusion causes any on-lookers to get the impression the person in question could be naked.
I thought I saw Ashley butt-naked in her backyard from over the fence, but it was just the Mel effect and she was actually wearing a shoulderless crop top.
