A rather unusual change in the daily social activities, usually in large numbers, between the months October and November (length and date may vary according to location) usually, though not limited, for students.
The effect occurs when majority, if not all, social activities come to complete halt. This can be observed most vividly in the internet socialization sites (i.e. Facebook, Myspace, etc.).
Many are prone to being affected by "The Fall Break Effect" and can happen with or without warning. Some show verbal signs to others by mentioning a trip, while some may disappear without warning.
Now, exactly where the affected individuals travel are unknown. The only factor that is shared in common, is the fact that social communication is cut dramatically, especially on the internet.
The correlation of the internet and "The Fall Break Effect" is not known as of now. The only known fact is when the time of "The Fall Break Effect" arrives in the area, the affected students, for a limited time, change their daily activity and reduce the social activities.

Get the The Fall Break Effect mug.When the current look of the sky reminds you of some kind of media or situation of some sort and it gives you a positive outlook on your current experience with the way the sky looks right now.
I was walking and looked up and noticed the sky was pure black and the city was all lit up. It reminded me of Need For Speed Carbon in so many ways! I had a good evening out for the rest of the night due to a really great sky reminder effect that happened to me.

Other Internet users: "Man this is funny, I wonder why people give this show such a hard time."
