The Gang Effect

Any situation in which a large group of people are crossing the street, with or without the walk signal causing cars to stop due to the sheer size of the group.

Kane was starting to get pissed off when the signal hadn't changed from STOP to WALK for 15 minutes, so he just crossed the street right behind a gang. Thank god for the gang effect.

The Graveler effect

A strange occurrence that is common in video games. It happens when you can't find something that you commonly see when you aren't looking for it. The effect is named after the 75th pokemon of the Kanto region Graveler and its tendancy to disappear when you look for it. This is surprisingly a very common effect.

Nerd 1: "I can't find my soul silver! It was right here all week!"
Nerd 2: "Its the Graveler effect."

The Hayley effect

When a woman who is fat and dresses provactivley in a workplace predominatley filled with Men, she appears much better looking than she really is.

"The haley effect" allowes fat women to distory reality just enough to create the illusion of beauty

There was a secretary at my technology park who was easily a XXL girl ( aka cuddly) but always wore super high heels, nice make up and sexy corporate dresses to work. She was the only woman in a 4 floor office filled with male programmers.

Her actions, distorted reality - The guys suffered "The Hayley Effect"

Where a woman who is a 3/10 can over time distort reality ( also known as a temporal shift) to give the illusion of a 9/10 and date worthy.

Pltebow Effect

This is faith over reason; more specifically when somebody believes that the Broncos can win with their current style of play (a non-existent passing game). People who have fallen under the spell of the "pltebow effect" lack rational thinking and basic reasoning.

Bronco Fan: "Did you see Tebow pass for 72 yards last Sunday? He is amazing and will lead us to the Super Bowl/Promise Land."

Intelligent NFL fan and Licensed Physician: "I am sorry son, but you are ill. You've been stricken with the "pltebow effect." There is no saving you."
