Nick Nolte Effect

This effect occurs when graying men decide to grow their hair to shoulder length and on occasion grow out their beard. Commonly these men have a love for Hawaiian shirts and making comedies with Eddie Murphy.

The Nick Nolte effect really took its toll on our bus driver.

The Bono Effect

The Bono Effect is a phenomenon that occurs when an individual or group aims to be universally popular to the masses, but eventually ends up with widespread rejection and criticism due to over-exposure and/or claims of insincerity. Named after Bono, the lead singer of the Irish Band U2, who along with his band faced considerable commercial and critical backlash starting in the mid to late 2000's after two and a half decades of solid success.

"Dude, you ever notice how nobody really likes Scott anymore?"
"Yeah I know. That guy's going through The Bono Effect in the worst way"
