When a bullheaded person is ill-trained,
in charge, and singlemindedly opposes a large team of
intelligent dissenters, and this stubborn decision causes severe loss, that is the J.R. effect
Usage note: The J.R. effect is often preceeded by what is known as the
chewbacca defense.
Everyone told him not to heat
the lava lamp on the stove, but he explained the model of the chemical structure of the subatomic particles and the flashpoint reaction -- we
don't know what the fuck he was talking about. Anyway, now he's dead with a shard of glass through his heart as a result of the J.R. effect.
