The Sanjaya Effect

The ability of a mediocre or poor performer to rouse the support of the masses.

Also, a competition in which the popularity of an individual is valued more than their ability to perform.

That guy can't dance at all! Why wasn't he voted off this week?

I don't know...it must be the Sanjaya Effect.

The Irvine effect

a phenomenon in which a normal person moves or spends prolonged time in Irvine and becomes increasingly angry, lowers his or her standards, and starts to hate all types of people.

why are you so angry? cause the Irvine effect. I'd rather tortured by the chinese communist, than see them here in Irvine.

The Undertale Effect

The Undertale Effect is a cycle that any form of entertainment media community can fall into.
Essentially, the community will COMPLETELY over rate the show/game/book/movie/etc., and defend it as if it is their life. The community will almost always turn the lovable, funny characters into cringe, and rapidly spread throughout the internet.
The strange thing is that the only outlets to suffer from The Undertale Effect are those from something that by itself is great. The show/video game/movie/etc. is usually great, and has many redeeming qualities but it is overshadowed by the atrocious and toxic fanbase.
Quite obviously, this is based off of the worst case of this ever happening yet - Undertale. I won't get into it now, but the smallest peek into the (dead now) community will tell you.
This has infamously happened to: Steven Universe, Five Nights at Freddy's, Minecraft, and unfortunately even Rick and Morty.

Right now, Rick and Morty has fallen into the Undertale Effect. Just look at Musical.ly, the fan art, the cancerous reddit copypasta, etc.

The Arianna Effect

An acute, sudden phenomenon with life lasting effects that occurs when one has come in contact with the most amazing soul on Earth. It cannot be fully described from words alone of the unique and breath taking hold it has on ones self or to the extent of what one is feeling in that very moment, once this effect has taken place. It has been said that only a lucky few have ever been able to experience this phenomenon and it is thought to be the ultimate source of peace and happiness that one can encounter in this life. It is considered a gift from God and is referred to as a "piece of heaven". It has been described as being completely saturated with pure, unconditional love while all of your fears and worries being taken out of you. It is said that it like seeing the northern lights within a million galaxies. It brings about all of whom you have the potential to become. It is only second to the feeling one gets when encountering Gods presence. It is truly the most satisfying and fulfilling experience one could ever wish to have. Its beauty and awe is like watching a never ending cluster of shooting stars.

I cant believe it....I have actually encountered "The Arianna Effect". My prayers have been answered!
