The nb effect

named after a person, the "nobody" effect is when someone is talking about nothing related to the conversation, continuing until they either get mad that everyone else wont listen or just stop talking after 45 minutes
can be a subtile way to say someone is on the effect during a call/ message without being harsh

friend 1:"yo, this dude over there, just kept talking about pokemon cards for about an hour with no one "
friend 2 : " his he on the nb effect?"
friend 1:yup

BlackBerry Effect

In written communication, the encouragement of curt, emotional, and/or ill-considered responses caused by the ever-presence of mobile communication technology.

*bleeping* Pat; *bleep* acts like the Internet was invented yesterday; think about your response before sending a text!; the BlackBerry Effect rules that *bleep*'s mind.

Floater effect

The idea of getting far into a competition by doing nothing, only to lose in an anticlimactic manner.

I didn't come across anyone during that Apex match, and when I did at the end I got destroyed. Guess that's the floater effect for ya.

Rikidozan Effect

A theoretical phenomenon that occurs when a puroresu (Japanese pro wrestling) audience is so happy to see a native wrestler win over a gaijin, or foreigner, out of pure nationalistic pride, that said gaijin's gimmick is ignored, regardless of whether they "get it" or not.

"Well, Big Bossman's original "prison warden/security guard" gimmick may have been "lost" on the Japanese fans, but, then again, they may have succumbed to the "Rikidozan Effect" and been rendered indifferent to it."

The Cicierega Effect

The Cicierega Effect (named for Neil Cicierega) is when *literally nobody can spell your name without having to google it*. Whoever decided what your last name is was an absolute dick.

The namesake itself is only a mild example. A famous mega-example is Hubert Blaine Wolfeschlegel­steinhausen­bergerdorff­welche­vor­altern­waren­gewissenhaft­schafers­wessen­schafe­waren­wohl­gepflege­und­sorgfaltigkeit­beschutzen­vor­angreifen­durch­ihr­raubgierig­feinde­welche­vor­altern­zwolfhundert­tausend­jahres­voran­die­erscheinen­von­der­erste­erdemensch­der­raumschiff­genacht­mit­tungstein­und­sieben­iridium­elektrisch­motors­gebrauch­licht­als­sein­ursprung­von­kraft­gestart­sein­lange­fahrt­hinzwischen­sternartig­raum­auf­der­suchen­nachbarschaft­der­stern­welche­gehabt­bewohnbar­planeten­kreise­drehen­sich­und­wohin­der­neue­rasse­von­verstandig­menschlichkeit­konnte­fortpflanzen­und­sich­erfreuen­an­lebenslanglich­freude­und­ruhe­mit­nicht­ein­furcht­vor­angreifen­vor­anderer­intelligent­geschopfs­von­hinzwischen­sternartig­raum Sr. (And yes, he gave his name on to his son.)

Cases of it can be found in names of other things, for example places (Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateaturipukakapikimaunga­horonukupokaiwhen­uakitanatahu, Tweebuffelsmeteenskootmorsdoodgeskietfontein), or departments of governments (Mannanafnanefnd), but it's mostly in human names, perhaps because names of other things have a tendency to be memorized by nerds.

person one: how tf do you spell your last name
person two: orfenblinklenienerweiner
person one: how tf am I supposed to remember that, this is a solid the cicierega effect moment
