When people want to be friends with you (or date you) more, because you're a loner/rebel/mysterious personality type. Almost all are attractive, yet rough around the edges & many times emotionally unavailable.

James Dean Effect :
Stupid person: "Wow, he/she is so mysterious & misunderstood. I want him/her to love/like me. I'm sure I can change them, maybe if I change myself they'll like me."
Logical person in response to emotional persons statement : "It's just the James Dean Effect, you want them more because you probably can't have them in your life. Ever."

The boy band effect is the phenomenon when a group of 3 or more boys of mediocre looks are hanging out together in a bar, mall, sporting event etc. When alone the boys would not merit a second glance from a nearby female but when together their averageness combines to form a cute cluster of males like that of a boy band. Works best when one guy is actually good looking. The boy band effect pulls up the ranking of looks the same way a British accent, suit, instrument or baby/puppy would. See cheerleader effect for female equivalent.
Jessica - "Lets go talk to those guys they're cute!"
Tory - "No, look closer"
Jessica - "You're right only one is cute - total boy band effect - bummer"

Someone who has always thought of Playboi Carti as a trash artist until they've listened to the Flex transition and have transcended to another level of the psyche.
"Man, Playboi Carti is just a horrible rapper... you cant even understand him!"
"I hear you bro, but listen to Flex off of his self titled album Playboi Carti."
* 4 minutes later...*
"That transition was fucking crazy bro, I felt my soul coming out of my body!"
"For real bro, thats what you call The Playboi Carti Effect."

When one cuts his/her hair and replaces his/her glasses contacts. Similar to Rachel Leigh Cook's character transformation in the 1999 movie She's All That. As a result hotness points are increased exponentially.
If a picture is taken, anyone that has the Nick tobat Effect causes the overall picture and its occupants to have a certain glow, making them all extremely attractive.

Marlon: Dude have you seen Nick? He's dancing with some engaged girl!
Peter: God damn! Its the Nick Tobat Effect in full throttle!

1. the tendency to write abnormally long sentences with heavy punctuation after reading a novel by Charles Dickens
2. the tendency to write or speak in a way similar to how the narrator or characters wrote or spoke in a piece of entertainment you recently experienced

if you'd rather not read a long and rambling novel, you can usually experience the Charles Dickens effect by watching Gilmore Girls: after watching it, you may find that you have the abnormal ability of speaking inhumanly fast and dishing out comebacks so witty and tactful that they should be against the law.
