Chronicler Effect

When one adopts the persona of having a crush on someone not available to them (usually because they are fictional or along-dead historical figures) for the sake of a joke for so long that one develops a legitimate crush on them.

Named after a member of a history-themed discord server who acted as a chronicler of all the events occurring (this happens to be me lol).

Chronicler: I say Anna Komnene my beloved, but is it sad that I think I legitimately have a bit of a crush on her now?

Sokrates: Same, I think I might have actually got the Chronicler Effect. I 've got an actual crush on Belisarius as well!

The Dotson Effect

Defined when rules that abundantly clear for absolutely everyone else, become subject to circumvention because the documentation is not designed for every "what if" condition.

The D.C.F.L is under the Dotson Effect once again due to the Ballers GM having an issue with the add/drop process.

The “Lacey Effect”

When an instructor teaching a group class resonates an affable, inclusive, and beautifully eccentric atmosphere that touches and uplifts every person in the room, even those not in the class.

“Hey man, that group class was awesome, I noticed the “Lacey Effect” occurred!”

“Thanks, it felt good too, the students seemed to have a lot of fun!”

When you are winning a ranked Rainbow 6 Siege game and you trash talk the other team and then you lose every round after that and eventually lose the game.

The Quiplash Effect

When a word becomes too overused as a joke, and it seemingly begins to grow unfunny to the point where ironically, it's funny; specifically overused in the game Quiplash.

Liam kept saying 'cum jokes', I blame The Quiplash Effect
