When a girl with very long hair cuts it short above her shoulders and it makes her look like the guy on the one dollar bill.
Why did she cut her hair?? It used to look so good! Now she looks like George Washington!
Damn, the George Washington Effect got her bad.

The Vinny Raffa Effect occurs after repetitive sightings of a repeated visual stimulus, often a sticker or grafitti. As a child I used to often see this one sticker with a mysterious icon - Vinny Raffa. This led me to ask the question, "who is Vinny Raffa?" As I grew up I saw more and more of these stickers throughout my lifetime and always wondered with great fascination what they meant and how they got there. However when I got older I eventually learned the true identity of the man on the sticker and with this discovery, much of my interest was lost. The Vinny Raffa Effect occurs when you lose interest in something after discovering too much about it.
I'm not sure if this is an example of The Vinny Raffa Effect but, I just found out who made all of these mysterious cards we've been seeing everywhere and now I don't care.

The Bow Tie Effect or Bow Tying is when you over compliment someone. It's a form of kissing ass to others. It started at a work place when someone over complimented someone who was wearing a bow tie. The phrase caught on and is used by others when ever ass kissing occurs or over complimenting.
Stewart: "I really love those shoes! I've never seen shoes that nice in my life, seriously, those are real nice shoes"
Stewart's co-worker: :"Man, Stewart is always bow tying, he really is a kiss-ass. That's straight up the Bow Tie Effect".

when seeing someone in a v neck, you feel the sudden urge to get down on them (either male or female).
"holy shit, is that guy wearing a v neck?"
"oh no it's the v neck effect, i just wanna go down on him...NOW!!!"
"oh no it's the v neck effect, i just wanna go down on him...NOW!!!"

1. What happens when a seemingly "attractive" Black, Asian, Hispanic, or Arab girl suddenly becomes unattractive when placed right next to an attractive white girl.
2. What makes men of all races more competitive in sports, strive to workout, and improve their overall image with the hope of catching the attention of a white woman.
3. When a man from Asia, Africa, Arabia, or South America arrives at a Westernized country, sees a White Woman and forgets about asian, african, arabian, or south american women.
4. Why Westernized media is preferred over Non-Westernized media.
5. What makes non-white women purchase hair dye and colored eye contacts, and skin lightening products.
(Sad, but true.)

1. Yinglin (black hair, black eyes, flat nose) might seem hot but Tammy (white, slender nose, slight freckles, hazel eyes and red hair) is even hotter and thus is hit on by more men.
Shaniqua and Juana tried out for a local beauty pageant but went home defeated because the white women at the try outs put their looks to shame. They've become victims of the White Girl Effect.
2. Tiger Woods strives to perfect his golf and image so he can date white women.
3. Pedro arrived at the United States from Mexico, and Wailunga from Guam. Upon seeing their first blonde and redhead at the airport, they're no longer attracted to their women.
4 & 5. Why do non-western media (especially Japanese anime) depict Heroines as white? Why do non-White women put on brown, blonde, or red hair dye? 'Nuff said.

The superfluous addition of hardcore homosexual sex scenes to a video game solely to pander to the gay demographic.
The Hamburger Hepler Effect occurs because of the desire by large media companies to pander to every possible demographic in order to boost sales of their terrible products so that they can claim market success even on the backs of total artistic failure.
