Dishwasher Effect

When a task you enjoyed doing by yourself previously becomes less fun when you're told to do it.

Like when you decide to be a good person and do the dishes, and then your parents ask you to do the dishes. You then no longer want to do the dishes.
You: "I was going to clean my room because I wanted to, but then my mom yelled at me to clean my room. Now I don't feel like cleaning it"

Friend: "Man that's the dishwasher effect."

A sheet of metal only reflects certain wavelengths of light due to magic we call quantum theory.

Wheatley Effect

The Wheatley Effect is a behaviour in which a person takes over a successful brand/ company/ rights of media, and ruin it with almost every change they do by choosing stupid decisions
Person 1: "Elon Musk changed that Twitter accounts that don't pay for a monthly subscription will temporarily be restricted to reading 600 posts per day"
Person 2: "that's some kind of Wheatley Effect bullshit"

Person 1: "Elon Musk chose to rebrand Twitter.com into X.com"
Person 2: "wow, the Wheatley Effect must really take place here"

David Zaslav, new CEO of Warner Bros. Discovery following the merger, cancelling Batgirl, a nearly completed feature film, for tax reasons; and continuing to release 2023's The Flash, only for it to disastrously bomb at the box office is an example of the Whealtey Effect
