The Margaret Mitchell Effect

The phenomenon of having come to the end of a project and not knowing how to end it. Named for Margaret Mitchell, author of Gone With The Wind, which she clearly did not know how to end.

Almost done with his thesis paper, Joel found himself a victim of the Margaret Mitchell Effect, and continued rambling until his dissertation eventually seemed to end itself.

Elon Musk Effect

When you think so outside of the box people think you're crazy, but your idea ends up being way better than anyone thought.

Inspires people to come up with ideas to fix problems we didn't know we had.

Bro 1: "Bro, what if we made rockets that landed themselves upright after their flight, and dug tunnels under Los Angeles so we don't have to deal with traffic?"

Bro 2: "Bro that's crazy....so crazy it might just work."

Bro 1: "Thanks bro, I knew I could inspire you to think like a billionaire toddler. I call that shit the Elon Musk Effect!"

Cold Lasagna Effect

To ruin a great thing, for an extended period of time. Can apply to activities, objects, food, basically anything that you like at first, but then have a bad experience that turns you off of it.

Lasagna tastes great leftover, but you have to microwave it fuckin forever to make sure the inside isn’t cold. Last time I ate lasagna, I burnt my mouth on the first bite, then threw up once I got to the cold middle. It was so nasty that I couldn’t eat lasagna for a year.

(847): puked bacardi raz this morning. NEVER drinking that shit again!
(315): bitch thats the cold lasagna effect 4 u

Just saw Zack and Miri Make a Porno with that fat dude from Knocked Up. I don’t think I’ll ever have anal again after that scene where the big-titted chick shits all over the cameraman.
