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.

Dumbing Cruder Effect

Usually the result of the Dunning Kruger effect. When the less intelligent a person is the smarter they believe themselves to be.
When they are unable to dispute real facts and evidence because theirs is only opinion based. They dumb themselves down even further by resulting to crude insults and childish name calling.
Claimant: "This is not a conspiracy theory. I did my own research to fact check everything!"
Doubter: "Your facts and evidence are all invisible because they are only in your imagination. All of your research is just other peoples opinions who agree with you. You are probably only repeating the opinions you heard from someone else."
Claimant (gets emotional and resorts to the Dumbing Cruder effect before leaving): "Well I believe it and I'm sticking with it. You're just too stupid to understand. And besides, you're just a big doodoo head!"

The Frank Ocean effect

Almost every time the singer Frank Ocean has made a cover of someone elses song, most people will prefer his version of the song rather than the original version.
Person 1: Hey, have you heard of this great song? It's called "Strawberry Swing" by Frank Ocean.

Person 2: Dude, do you not know that song is a cover? Coldplay made the original song. You should listen to it.

Person 1: *listens to original* Yeeeeeah no Frank's version is a billion times better.

Person 2: bruh

Person 1: Yeah the Frank Ocean effect has had a heavy toll on my view of music

The Shane Dawson effect

The effect Shane (and other content creators, but Shane is the best example) has had on the current generation. How children learned from a young age that self-deprecating humor makes people laugh. (ex: pointing at a trash can and saying "me haha") and has caused many people to actually believe less of themselves. The child didnt have to actualy watch shane dawson, but could have gotten the behavior from someone else who did watch Shane.
person 1: I'm so lazy and fat lol #relatable

person: 2: did you happen to watch Shane Dawson as a kid?
person 3: It looks like you're suffering from the Shane Dawson effect, are you okay?
