A phenomenon that occurs when in Star Trek Online, someone pets their tribble, and others nearby proceed to follow suit.
I went into a crowded space, and petted my tribble. Nearly everyone else nearby who had a tribble petted theirs, as well. Thus, the Tribble Effect.

The term is dubbed so due to the effect on teenage girls everywhere after the Perks Of Being A Wallflower was adapted into a film 13 years after the release of the book.
'The Fault in Our Stars' by John Green is likely to go through this effect

Get the superman effect mug.Amogus Effect is when you see something online you hate, like Amogus memes, and they start spreading everywhere, and people won't stop saying it, and it keeps spreading and you start going insane, at one point yelling "MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOP", but then you lose all your sanity, and you laugh uncontrollably when you see those memes you hate. You embrace the meme, the meme controls you now.
Person 1: Bro wtf happened to you? You laugh like a maniac when you see among us memes
Person 2: The Amogus Effect consumed me. Amogus.

Named after Charles Carreon, a self-proclaimed "Internet lawyer" who came to Internet infamy by attempting to silence Matthew Inman a.k.a The Oatmeal who had spoken out over another website's copyright infringement and their refusal to take down the infringing material. The complaint led to a charity fundraiser (which Carreon also tried to shut down, without success) and several Internet denizens attacking him via email and phone and hacking his website. Carreon eventually filed a motion of dismissal, ending the case.
Not to be confused with the Streisand Effect.
