Sean Davis Phenomenon

This phenomena occurs when you are living with someone else within close proximity and you contract an illness through the roommates deliberate actions— this includes deliberately coughing in your direction, sneezing without covering the mouth, or not even informing you of their illness to begin with. This term comes from the death of a college student when their roommate, Sean Davis, purposefully spread the illness out of spite.
“Hey man, are you feeling alright?”
“Nah, man, my roommate got me sick! Keeps coughing at me and shit, it’s ridiculous. Didn’t even tell me he was sick at first.”
“Oh man, talk about a Sean Davis Phenomenon!”

Hungry Judge Phenomenon

That sounds like a pretty substantial miscarriage of justice if that is the case.
Hym "BUT Hungry Judge Phenomenon doesn't occur 100% of the time does it? And reminding them of their mortality has the same effect? So it isn't 'predetermined' it just 'largely affected by' which, again, means determinism wrong and dumb. I mean it sounds like we should mandate snacks for judges and convince everyone they're immortal."

Jacob's Phenomenon

The Jacob's Phenomenon describes the tendency to perform worse on a second attempt at a task, despite expectations of improvement. This effect can be attributed to overthinking, reduced adrenaline and focus, or pressure to replicate initial success. Neurological fatigue and natural variability in performance also play a role. For instance, a basketball player may sink a perfect shot on their first try but miss the next due to overanalyzing their form. While the phenomenon can be discouraging, it is typically short-lived, and consistent practice helps individuals overcome the dip and achieve steady improvement.
Oh, Luc you can't parry anymore? Must be "Jacob's Phenomenon".
