The 007 Effect (also called James Bond Effect) is a theory in propaganda and political circles, whereby the first detailed opinion/summary that someone hears or reads on a particular topic, is the one they are most likely to adopt.
Called the 007 Effect - in reference to the James Bond character - as there is highly anecdotal evidence that the first actor someone sees play the chacater of James Bond, is the one they prefer (i.e. someone who saw their first Bond film in the 1960's will tell you Sean Connery played the best Bond, however those that saw their first Bond film in the 1990's will tell you Pierce Brosnan is the best).

Mike: Hey, John I hear that Dave got fired? You guys had lunch all the time didn't you?
John: Yeah, he was let go last week. The wierd thing is our Manager keeps going on about why he got fired - showing me emails and letters. If you ask me, that's just wrong - that's confidential information.
Mike: Well, that's the 007 Effect for you. Management know that you will probably catch up with Dave sometime soon.

Get the The Batman Effect mug.Amongularity Effect
The Amongularity Effect describes the urge of Individuals, may that be humans or not, to do something related to the videogame "Among Us".
What preceeds the triggering of the Amongularity Effect is, when an Individual does or says something related to the popular videogame "Among Us"
The strength of the Amongularity Effect is dependent on time and concentration of the Amonguli (Singular:Amongulus) particles in the Atmosphere.
Where more Amonguli Particles and a state of time, closer to the trigger, result in a harsher and more direct chain reaction with several people at a time
making funny references to the funny videogame "Among Us". While, when the time of trigger was some time ago, the reaction will not be as concentrated and not as many people
will reference said videogame.
The Amonguli Effect is considered an anomaly but is able to be calculated as follows:
AE = ( AC + tT)/(Sus)
AE: Amongularity Effect
AC: Amonguli concentration rate
tT: Time since triggering of the Amongularity Effect'S chain reaction
S : Number of people making references to the video game of amongus
u : Category of the Individuals, doing the references (Split in 10 Categories by age)
s : Average amount of the references per individual (Every Category is to be calculated by itself(!) and then the "Among Us agefactortm" shall be added)

This is referenced by the infamous incident where an episode of Pokémon was aired in Japan and gave numerous kids seizures due to rapidly flashing lights, caused by an attack from Pikachu. Since Pikachu was and still is the poster boy for the Pokémon franchise, Porygon, the starring Pokémon of the episode, was blamed and punished instead despite not being responsible for it.

Person 1: Why am I being punished for something I didn't do? It was clearly Jimmy's fault!
