When a craptastic movie becomes more enjoyable after watching it over and over again on HBO or any other pay cable station.
"I really thought Couples Retreat sucked in the theater, but strangely, thanks to the HBO Effect, I've actually come to like it after watching it 45 times on HBO"

Get the HBO Effect mug.Used when explaining the story of a girl who had sex, even though she told you repeatedly that she was going to wait until marriage. The saying goes "She fell prey to The Butter Effect- things got hot and she spread easily"

Get the Raphy Effect mug.when youre sitting in a bar and you spot a good looking girl. the mirage effect comes into play when you spot her. more often than not, this girl is going to seem much finer than she really is. picture yourself in a desert, thirsty for water. you find a bottle of dirty evian. this bottle seems much more attractive, and so you fall for the mirage effect.
-dude that bird is fiiiiiine!
-dude i totally know
two hours later, to a third dude
-dude you see that bird?
-ye, nice!
-hmm not really...are you sure you didnt just fall for the ME (=mirage effect).
