the horimiya effect

the disease that ensue after watching the 2021 anime, horimiya:

stage 0 (while watching the show): giddyness, pure joy

stage 1: simpage, being absolutely down bad for characters/relationships in the show

stage 2: scouring the internet for horimiya clips to try to feel the joy again

stage 3: watching other romcoms but not feeling satisfied as they will never live up to horimiya

stage 4: pure depression. how are they so happy. i want to be happy. where is my miyamura. where is my hori.

stage 5 (terminal): sos the depression is becoming terminal. life support won't cut it anymore. going into tachycardic arrest.

stage 6: the fabled stage 6, where the viewer has moved on. nobody knows if it's more than a myth.

"shit, the horimiya effect is hitting hard."
"me too man, i still dream about miyamura sometimes..."

Amber effect

The rare occasion when one pulls up to an intersection. The cars,in front of you, that want to turn and have their blinkers on, the blinkers, which are an amber color, start blinking in unison. All going on and off at the same time, in a perfect accord. The effect only lasts at a maximun of 3 seconds.

Yesterday at around 5:30, when i was at a red light, i saw The amber effect happen right in front of me when 5 cars were wanting to turn left! Shit was so cash!!!

The Wei Effect

The act of intending to study in a public or private place, but the intention has turned into utter un-productivity when a friend joins the social space. However you end up leaving that area smarter but yet nothing done.

Everybody is studying in starbucks doing their own stuff, then Wei walked in, wei goes around and said hi to everyone, starts a conversation with the professor about some metaphysical concept, another guy joins in the conversation, then soon everybody whose purpose was to do homework in starbucks has turned into a huge dialogue about sexuality, religion, politics, or some other metaphysical snuff. Productivity went from 100% to 10%, yet everyone probebly gained about 5 critical IQ points.

"Dude, did you do anywork today at starbucks man?"
"Nope, it was the Wei Effect, my smart sociology friend came in, and instead of working on pathology, we ended up talking about human sexuality and its correlation to praxis"
"What the fuck does Praxis mean?"
"I have no clue, but its sounds smart"
"Dude, f***ing Wei Effect, now i wont do well in my patho test, however my sociology of sex exam will be peace of cake".

"The Bachelor" Effect

In reference to the reality show The Bachelor - It is when you fall in love with someone in a novel setting that's far removed from reality (I.e. on a vacation, reality show, business trip). Once taken out of the novel environment, the relationship shrivels and dies in the harsh light of reality.

I thought I loved her when we met in Bali, but when we tried to make it work afterwards, it just fell apart. Guess it was just "The Bachelor" Effect.
