When you take someone's advice. And that advice fails leading to a catastrophic failure of at least 3 linked events.
Taking the advice to bet on Serbia in the World Cup Football. Serbia lose to a lesser nation and then 3 other linked bets fail due to Serbia exiting the World Cup. Result = empty wallet and new term the "Akajioyi Serbian Domino Effect". Named after the person that gave said advice.

Paradoxical Domino Effect

The idea that introducing or accepting a single paradox means introducing and accepting an infinite amount of subsequent other paradoxes, because of the first paradox.

The main take away here is you don't want to introduce any paradoxes to a line of reasoning or any model, because you'll have to also by proxy also accept an infinite amount of other paradoxes that are thus created by the first one as a consequence.
Paradoxical Domino Effect Example #1: God exists therefore any other god could also exist. Since God exists so could faeries, werewolves, vampires, Big Foot, and The Loch Ness monster. Since faeries could exist as a consequence of this, magic also must exist since they use magic.

Paradoxical Domino Effect Example #2: Going back in time is possible; therefore, you can go back in time and kill your own grandpa so you couldn't be born. Since you can't be born you must not exist. Since you no longer exist... wait what if going back in time is actually just a copy of the past you are going into? So there must be infinite pasts you can go into. Since there are infinite pasts you can go into...
