sheepdog effect

When a band gains huge amount of popularity, seemingly overnight, due to a sudden surge in media coverage, or publicity.
Man, Walk of the Earth are huge now. It must be the sheepdog effect from their new video.

Droppler Effect

The weary jaded feeling of "letdown" that one usually experiences after a much-anticipated event (such as a talent-concert or other much-hyped cultural bash, dinner-date, "important" business meeting, etc.) which turns out to be significantly less satisfying or worthwhile than had been expected or hoped for. So, like the "Doppler Effect" that is heard as a noisy vehicle zooms by (the sound of the jalopy's engine is higher as it bears down on your position and then drops drastically in pitch as it rushes headlong into the distance), one's mood and emotions suffer a similar "roller-coaster" or "sugar-crash" journey... you are all keyed up and excited beforehand with your heartbeat going a-mile-a-minute as you eagerly anticipate the looked-forward-to event, and then afterwards you feel disappointed and exhausted, with your whole being slowed into a state of draggy disillusionment.
Cool dude #1: Zheesh, man --- THAT garage band really sucked... dunno when I've ever heard worse performing!
Cool dude #2: Ya, fer shure, buddy --- major Droppler Effect from THAT one!

The Rogers Effect

The effect caused by the addition of a "Rogers" to any normal event.

The effect is this: You may have a plan in place to go out for the evening with a bunch of dudes and you will be guaranteed of having a fun time with some laughs. But with the addition of just one dude, "Rogers", the evening gets redonkulously off the hook. Next thing you know your underwear is flying out the window, girls are doing things that you have only read about in a dirty magazine, and you are hammered drunk.
Dude 1: Are we going to the strip club later?

Dude 2: Big time, but "Rogers" is meeting us.

Dude 1: Oh Shit! Every time he is with us, I wind up hamboned with some girls thong on my head again!!! That's "The Rogers Effect"!!! It scare me.
