The Tesoro Effect

The charismatic, positive and profound impact of Laura Tesoro performing a song (primarily live).
I didn't think that 'What's The Pressure' would be successful live on stage at Eurovision, but as a result of the Tesoro Effect, it finished top 10 in the final!

Urinal Effect

When a group of people are faced with a row of seats or something similar, those people will tend to sit in every other seat so as not to be creepy to the other people

Comes from the unspoken etiquette of men’s bathrooms that states that they can never use a urinal next to one that another man is using.
I can’t sit down in any of these seats or I’ll be creepy! I’ve fallen victim to the Urinal Effect!”

Luc effect

The luc effect is when someone is entirely adorable because they are attractive.

No matter what they do people say 'Awww' instead of 'that's gross'.
Eg 'he went for a shit in the woods'

'Oh my god, that's so cute'

Must be the luc effect.

The Marvel Effect

What results from overblown wannabe Tony Starks like Elon Musk managing to convince people that our level of technology is far more advanced than it actually is, like the movie franchise always does. Originally from Adam Something's YouTube "Why a Mars Colony is a Dangerous and Stupid Idea".
Those enthralled by the idea of a one-way trip to some Mars Colony in the near future are just deluding themselves with The Marvel Effect.

Chevelle Effect

I always thought the alt-metal/post-grunge band from Grayslake, Illinois was just generic and mediocre. Then I was invited by a friend to a free show of there's. Completely changed my mind on them!!!! I know love Chevelle and totally get it, so whenever I go see a show and a song or band has that same effect, it's known to me as the "Chevelle Effect".
Rob: You see that new Silverstein song live last week?

Craig: DUDE! YES! That gave me total “Chevelle Effect”!!!
