This phenomenon occurs when you don’t prepare enough for your first exam, and you have to cram for the second one, and then you have to essentially cram for every exam after that because you are don’t have proper time management skills.

Pushing the first domino

The act of sending to someone proof of copulation with their mother. So-called because this event sets of a chain of escalating reactions, including, but not limited to: simple battery, revenge fucks, petty vandalism, joyriding crashes, rumor generation, blatant sabotage of relationships and work, and serious violence. This requires that the proof be strong in nature, such as photographs, video, or loud audio. The public and visceral the proof, the stronger the domino reaction. It is not uncommon for bystanders to become involved in the toppling events.

The survivor/winner of such an event can usually lay claim to being the dominant partner in a froating relationship. Similarly, pushing the first domino can be construed as an act of froating, assuming that the initiator can maintain his status in the relationship.

Adapted from a common Cold War political theory which stated that when one nation "falls" to communism, others near it will do so as well.

When you take someone's advice. And that advice fails leading to a catastrophic failure of at least 3 linked events.
Taking the advice to bet on Serbia in the World Cup Football. Serbia lose to a lesser nation and then 3 other linked bets fail due to Serbia exiting the World Cup. Result = empty wallet and new term the "Akajioyi Serbian Domino Effect". Named after the person that gave said advice.

The idea that introducing or accepting a single paradox means introducing and accepting an infinite amount of subsequent other paradoxes, because of the first paradox.

The main take away here is you don't want to introduce any paradoxes to a line of reasoning or any model, because you'll have to also by proxy also accept an infinite amount of other paradoxes that are thus created by the first one as a consequence.
Paradoxical Domino Effect Example #1: God exists therefore any other god could also exist. Since God exists so could faeries, werewolves, vampires, Big Foot, and The Loch Ness monster. Since faeries could exist as a consequence of this, magic also must exist since they use magic.

Paradoxical Domino Effect Example #2: Going back in time is possible; therefore, you can go back in time and kill your own grandpa so you couldn't be born. Since you can't be born you must not exist. Since you no longer exist... wait what if going back in time is actually just a copy of the past you are going into? So there must be infinite pasts you can go into. Since there are infinite pasts you can go into...

domino benefit

All or any of the unforeseen good things that happen when one does an act of kindness, altruism, volunteer.
FOR PEOPLE MY AGE: She reads to the pre-schoolers at the library every Tuesday. She loves it and has done it for years. She did it mainly for herself, her love of books and children, then she discovered the Domino Benefit to the small act of reading to children. One person came up to her and said that she read to them, he read to his son and his son reads to his daughter.
FOR YOUNGER FOLKS: Her mom made her mow the neighbors yard for sneaking out to a party. However, she had a massive Domino Benefit, when every boy on the block came out to help her, she felt like Tom Sawyer, except he was a she and she had no problem with the attention, torturing the boys, and she didn't have to do anything! When she told her BFF what had happened, BFF promptly went out to start the lawn mower, which shocked the hell out of her parents and she got 50.00 and keys to the car for the rest of the weekend!!!!
