Rip Tide Effect

after drinking a bottle of Rip Tide (tastes like carbonated Propel), when you become seriously hyper and crazy. Happens in three stages:

pre-effect: when you first start drinking the Rip Tide, and you get this weird giddy feeling.

effect: not long after you finish the bottle,all the sudden you get really hyper. This stage includes inappropiate jokes, lots of giggling, random bursts of dancing, and other assorted silliness. May last anywhere between 10 minutes and two hours.

post-effect: depending on you, this could be one of two things. either, you just go back to normal, or you expeirence total system shut-down. During total-system shut-down, you'll feel groggy and have trouble concentrating on anything in particular. WARNING!!! It is possible to fall asleep during this stage!

Often happens to middle school students during their lunch period.
After lunch, everyone agreed that the Rip Tide Effect definitley made for good entertainment.

the lebron james effect

1.) lebron james' ability to turn any straight basketball-loving man gay through his beastly skill and ability

2.) lebron james' ability to bring good to everything in his life, just by being lebron james
1.) while watching the cavs game, a boy told his girl how he would literally have sex with lebron if he could. then, when lebron made a 3 pointer in the last second to win the game, the boys orgasmic reaction made the girl feel as though she traded her boyfriend for a shopping buddy, a common result of the lebron james effect

2.) because of their uncanny skill at being lebron james' children, lebron james' children, who are still quite young, have already been offered college basketball scholarships. lebron junior and his less fortunately named brother are firsthand witnesses to the lebron james effect

The Dane Cook Effect

1. When an entertainer or public figure has a fan base that becomes so obnoxious, annoying and generally despised, that the entertainer or public figure becomes the object of scorn, ridicule and hate by the public, despite the fan base being the actual problem, not the entertainer or public figure
2. When a person, group, movement or thing gains such significantly high level of popularity, that it actually causes an equal and opposite reaction from the public creating a subculture of near equal popularity that hates the source of popularity
1. Despite suffering from The Dane Cook Effect, Insane Clown Posse managed to stay consistent and at least gain some respect from the public for their ability to understand merchandising and utilize a good marketing strategy.
2. Even though conservationism is practical and pragmatic, too many annoying self righteous douches contaminated the public image of conservation leading to The Dane Cook Effect causing people do the opposite out of spite.

The Richard Nixon effect

The Richard Nixon effect named after the president of the same name.

When a solution, produces the opposite outcome, opposite to the intended purpose, this can have very harmful outcome that is counterproductive.
And example of the Richard Nixon effect is when the School decided to ban physical contact. The students started high fiving way more often. The Richard Nixon effect is an example of making things illegal doesn’t fix the problem.

The Serena Joy effect

A term for the feeling of going back and forth between liking/loving and disliking/hating a character due to their actions.

The term originated from when me and my friends watched "The Handmaid's Tale". Like wtf Serena?
"For fuck sake, Serena! You took one step forward and now you take five steps back! Like, what the fuck?! It's literally been five minutes! I was starting to like you again!"

"Yeah, that's the Serena Joy effect for you."
