Brisbane Effect

This is an effect that appears to take place commonly within the city of Brisbane, Queensland where a couple consists of the female being overwhelmingly more attractive when compared to her boyfriend.

This is usually identified as a reacher-settler relationship however with the difference being that the female is completely ignorant of the fact she is insanely better looking then her boyfriend.
Jarrod: Damn that guy is punching well above his weight, his girlfriend is gorgeous.
Matt: That's Brisbane Effect at its finest. She doesn't even know how much better she could do.

Brisbane

The most dead boring town on the entire planet where nothing ever changes except the weather. Full of old people but still 30 years behind Sydney. Pretends to be a major city but is farrr from it. The food sucks and brisbanites usually survive purely off KFC, stale bread or rotten bananas from Coles. This atrocious diet usually results in most of the species looking like inbreds, except for some of the women, who for some strange reason are often drop dead gorgeous. Who knows what they're trying to impress though in this flat as town. Oh wait, sorry, it's far from flat and you can't even walk outside without burning 3000 calories. The worst thing though is probably the obsession over what school your kid goes to, as well as the massive number of toxic normies who pretend they don't know you (even though they have for 20 years).

Brisbane State High School

All the people here are stuck up and either sneaker re sellers or whores. Everyone is either academically challenged because of their sports entry or absolute nerds. This school accepts emo’s, transgenders and fury’s and doesn’t care that their school literally cannot facilitate more people. Everyone thinks they’re the shit but they all look so grotty. Everyone dates around and in the school. They are so looked down upon and how embarrassing when after school they walk through the city and they pay nothing compared to all the $20k+ private schools here. #Embarrassing 🔵🔴🔵 Some stupid business includes no negations on tiktok which is bound to fail, up sneakers on instagram and this bald year 11 on tiktok talking about side hustles. This school is a failure and there are way too many nerds
“Who’s that poor looking state school over there in the blue

“Oh that‘s Brisbane State High School, that’s that ugly acorn hair looking guy named Hein or something

“Oh shame. Isn’t that Roman? And isn’t that the school Liam and Winston used to attend?”

Brisbane Grammar School

Brisbane Grammar School is an independent, non-denominational, day and boarding school for boys, located in Spring Hill, an inner suburb of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. It is the oldest secondary boys school in Brisbane. Some of the Brisbane Grammar School Buildings are listed on the Queensland Heritage Register. The school is famously the best at academic performance in the state, only matching with its rival school, St Joseph's College, Gregory Terrace, which happens to be on the same street. Its sister school, Brisbane Girls Grammar School, is directly next to Brisbane Grammar. Brisbane Grammar is also part of the Greater Public Schools system. A system of Queensland's most elite boys schools (excluding Brisbane State High School (BSHS), which is co-educational). Brisbane Grammar School is also the most expensive school in the state, and the 10th most expensive in the country, with fees starting at around $30,000, as of 2018.

Brisbane State High School is a partially selective, co-educational, state secondary school, located in South Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. It is a member of the Great Public Schools Association of Queensland, and the Queensland Girls' Secondary Schools Sports Association. As of 2017, the school has 3,190 students, second only to Varsity Lakes Senior School on the Gold Coast. Since the school's fantastic academic record, it has become the flagship school of the department of education and thus, directed a lot of the budget to itself. It has problems of people cheating to get their child into the school and as a result, State High has been performing a crackdown on that activity. Its rival school is supposed to be Coorparoo Secondary College, but due to a large amount of Coorparoo's funding going to State High, that rivalry is very much overlooked. State High also provides a record number of 1200 scholarships.
