This is what happens when you shit you pants, at work, and it ends up costing you $21 because your mom is working and your grandma has to go to Wal-Mart to get you a new pair of pants and boxers.
Fumunda: I shit myself at work!
Mom:What do you want me to do about it?
Fumunda: Bring me some new clothes!
Mom: Your grandma is at Wal-Mart, I'll call her and have her bring you some.
Fumunda: Damn! That's gonna cost me!
Mom: Well, you shouldn't have shit yourself.
Fumunda: I am gonna call this the Fumunda Effect!
Mom:What do you want me to do about it?
Fumunda: Bring me some new clothes!
Mom: Your grandma is at Wal-Mart, I'll call her and have her bring you some.
Fumunda: Damn! That's gonna cost me!

Seemingly mindless and uncontrollable event/movement/or person. Originated from the attention garnered by Ingrid Betancourt in 2008 despite the fact that she did nothing to deserve honors or such massive attention.
"They just gave Billy a car! He always got the Betancourt Effect because he was the first born"
The mild rumors that US beef had mad cow disease were under the Betancourt Effect when people started to violently protest in South Korea

A band from Brisbane, Australia that has not made a wrong move in making songs as of yet. All great songs.
Best songs include 'Crave' 'One Second of Insanity' 'Black Lung' 'Always'.

The practice by TV/Radio media of censoring materials that are not obscene or vulgar, but failing to censor the obscene/vulgar.
Back in the 90's, when the band "Sublime" was in its prime, I remember watching a music video for "Santeria" on TV. When the song got to the following lyrics:
"Tell sanchito that if he knows what is good for him he best go run and hide. Daddy's got a new 45.
and I won't think twice to stick that barrel straight down sancho's throat.
Believe me when I say that I got somethin for his punk ass. "
The TV station edited out the word "forty-five", but NOT the phrase "punk ass". This is what I call the "Santeria Effect"
