Oasis Effect

The Oasis Effect describes the phenomena in modern music where popular music has plummeted in quality so much, that acts that were only mediocre in the past, are comparatively superb.
"I just got excited to find Wonderwall on a radio station. What the fuck is going on!?"

"Oh, that's just the Oasis Effect you're experiencing. Everything else is so bad, Wonderwall is good. We live in frightening times."

Traffic Oasis

When you think you finally see the source of a traffic back-up on the highway, whether a stalled car, accident, cop, or some wild turkeys running across the highway, only to pass the offender, and discover there's something else further up ahead still causing back-up.
When he saw the tow truck and police lights on the shoulder, Mike thought the traffic would finally speed up. Unfortunately, it was just a traffic oasis and it took him another hour to get home.
