The Logan Effect

The Logan effect is a common acuring phenomenon where a kid can not hear him/herself over the sound of their $100 earphones. Therefore, the sound they create is unheard by them but clearly heard by other people, causing people to become annoyed and frusterated. Despite multiple attempts to tell the person to, “shut the fuck up” the invidual will still maintain a loud voice. But, those suffering become annoyed when other people raise their voice beyond what their earphones block out.

Guy 1 - Omg Terry Shut the FUCK up and stop screaming!

Guy 2 - WHAT WAS THAT!?! I CANT HEAR YOU OVER MY GAME OF OSU

Guy 1 - Omg he has the Logan Effect

The Curtis Effect

The Curtis Effect is the action in which a person has something done to them, but this person takes either way to long to realise what's happened (a major delayed reaction) or to over emphasise the action done to them, for example someone getting punched and the person that gets hit would fly across the room. This effect tends to take place to people with 100 subscriber YouTube channels and above (this isn't yet known why).

*Person 1 hits Person 2*
(Person 3) "Why did he go so far"
(Person 4) "Must be the Curtis Effect again"
