The Woody Effect

The Woody Effect is serious and contagious effect first discovered at Wilfrid Laurier University. The first signs of the effect were seen during the University's frosh week. The rumour claims that an individual going by the persona of "Woody" was confused with the idea of frosh week, and assumed that it lasted all four years and not just a week. This lead to him spending his days brainwashing unsuspecting students (using techniques learned in Psychology) to drink despite them being behind in readings, having exams the next day, or that they were currently in an exam. Projections done by the University show a shocking number of drop outs in the future because of this effect. Special constables in Kitchener, Waterloo are currently investigating this effect and trying to contain it before it spreads to other Universities.

The Gunio effect

This term origins from when mr. gunio once made an entire class driven to suicide. It is when an even takes place and repeats itself many times over and over, and you slowly become even more miserable, depressed and lose the tiny bit of happiness you ever had. you will even forget your best friend. for example, you study multiple hours for a week to prepare for a math test, and then he gives you a test on a completely different subject. or one person cheats on a test, and everybody gets an F because of that. Or, your math teacher tells your parrents you are misbehaving, when in reality, you only asked soemebody for a pencil one time.
me: my teacher told my parents i was bullying a kid for a pencil, but i was only asking him kindly to borrow his pencil.

friend: the gunio effect kicks in once again

The Playground Effect

When you were a little kid and you wanted to play on one of the elements of a public playground however some other kid was already using it. Therefore in order to drive the other child off of that component of the playground without outwardly saying something, you would stand there next to them and wait until they felt awkward enough to leave. After they left you could enjoy that slide or swing until someone else came along and decided to playground effect you!
We noticed that both volleyball courts were occupied, so we decided to use the playground effect so that the occupants would eventually stray away.
