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

The Ellis Effect

The Ellis Effect is a theoretical hypothesis involving the ability of men named Ellis. The effect describes thier uncanny ability to cause others to drink excessive amounts of alcohol. They are essentially drinking catalysts. Be very careful when drinking around an Ellis. We do not have enough data to fully understand the extent of their charisma on others.

"We tried to collect observational data on The Ellis Effect, unfortunately he drank all the data."

Friend 1: "what happened to you last night?"
Friend 2: "I got way too plastered because I got caught in The Ellis Effect."
