Friend1: "She lasered me, but just stood there when you killed her."
Friend2: "That's the 'Shroud Effect'."

The Murzulus Effect

The Murzulus Effect

A scientific theory that indicates homo-sapiens acquire the competence and intelligence to telepathically communicate and cause two or more homo-sapiens to simultaneously activate their sensory system to go ahead and proceed with sending sensory signals to the phalanges which then will cause an imbalance in the forces, Newton's first law, if a body is at rest or moving at a constant speed in a straight line, it will remain at rest or keep moving in a straight line at constant speed unless it is acted upon by a force, the phalanges commence with acceleration, Newton's second law of motion, F = ma. Moreover, collision occurs when the phalanges make contact with an input device, all these actions occur due to a neurological telepathic communication between homo-sapiens that would bring them to the same place/state at the same time, unconsciously.

In simpler words, two or more people unconsciously start texting at the same time.
Person 1: *typing*
Person 2: *typing*
Person 1: wth man we were offline now we are online texting at the same time, is it a coincidence or is it "The Murzulus Effect"?

The Nugget Effect

Surpassing a level of excruciating hunger wherein one becomes less hungry than originally anticipated.
The 300 chicken nugget challenge was on my mind all day. I refused to eat. Half an hour before go time, he decided to have a girl over and have some fun. I was livid. When we finally got to McDonalds an hour later I barely made it past 20 effectively making me the first to experience "The Nugget Effect".

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!
