the BASIS effect

When expectations of you/or your kid are high
so you push yourself/them to ace everything they do
but inhumanly punishing them when you see them fail something thats clearly too hard for you/them

Muse Effect

When the bass guitarist is cooler than the main singer (usually acoustic guitarist). In Muse's case: Chris Wolstenholme is cooler than Matt Bellamy.

The Tristan Effect

When a new idea/person/thing is introduced and everyone likes it at first, but slowly overtime people get tired of it to the point of flat out hating the subject.

Joker Effect

When there is a character in a movie that is forced into a position where the audience can say “it’s not his fault, it’s society’s fault for making him like this”

Person 1: I feel like he deserves to get away scot free as society made him into that way
Person 2: Dude he literally killed a celebrity on National Television. I think you fell victim to the Joker Effect

Notification Effect

Entering an app with the intent of completing a task only to be distracted by the in-app notification. You then leave the app only to return again to try and accomplish your original task.

I went on Twitter to send a DM but I fell victim to the notification effect when I saw that little counter. Only once I closed the app did I remember what I originally needed to do.
