Same as the Iphone effect, but with a laptop.
guy 1: "Guys, save the table while I'm going to get some food."
(while waiting, one friend takes out their laptop to fill the blank, then another, then another)
(the other comes back, sits, feels awkward because of the silence)
guy 1: "Ah, that laptop effect is killing the conversation, just stop!"

Get the The "Mallows Effect" mug.A social phenomena involving a man and a group of female room mates. The Doc Schmolligans Effect takes place when the Doc is involved with one of the females, and when that female fails to make a move, moves on to the next available option. Though rarely seen, this Effect adequately explains nearly every instance of violence between female roommates not caused by a lack of showering, house cleaning, or obsession with lolcats posters within the house.

Get the Doc Schmolligan's Effect mug.The effect in which one can use long distances or obstacles to deter passerbyes from starting a conflict when engaging in activities that said passing people may find unpleasent or "wrong". The field effect also allows for an unobstructed 360 degree view to allow for the spotting of police long before they are close enough to apprehend you.
The field effect allows for the smoking of cannabis in the middle of a field knowing that noone will walk all the way across the field to confront you.
