The North Effect

A fallacy in which one recalls a movie or TV show from childhood thinking it was amazing, but upon rewatching it is actually terrible.

Named after the 1994 movie “North”.
Adam experienced The North Effect when he rewatched “North” starring Elijah Wood. After rewatching it as an adult, Adam experienced severe disappointment after realizing the movie was in fact - fucking terrible.

North Paulding

A school made up of a bunch of white pieces of shits and a bunch of loud and obnoxious black people. All the athletes expect to go D1 but are highkey dogshit. Now, you would think "why would anyone want to go there", but when you look at the other schools within a 20 mile radius, you realize that its not that bad. A typical Tuesday at North Paulding includes cheerleaders saying the hard R over napkins, emo girls who no one knows trying to blow up the school, the smell of freshmen wearing too much fucking axe and mint juul pods, a hot combination of STDs that you couldnt even fathom, and, most importantly, a science teacher who's into student/teacher sex.
"Bro, don't hit that, shes from North Paulding. There's no telling what shes put in that"
