Fey Effect

When a comedian makes a negative political ad disguised as a comedy piece to encourage the average viewer to pay attention and be more open to receiving and considering the criticism embedded within the humor; specifically, the Fey Effect is when this bit has an important, lasting effect on real world politics.

It comes from Tina Fey's impression of Sarah Palin on Saturday Night Live, which negatively affected the public's opinion of Palin.
The Fey Effect is partly responsible for Palin's relevancy declining significantly in the past 10 years.

boyfriend effect

The boyfriend effect is basically when your boyfriend comes to visit your place (or you go to visit his) and somehow your room ends up looking like absolute anarchy. The boyfriends presence somehow made the room go from completely organized to post apocalyptic…even though he literally didn’t do anything…and no one knows why.
“Sorry girl! My room’s a mess! I had it real clean this morning.”

“Don’t worry about it! Did your man visit today?”

“Yeah. He just left actually.”

“Aah that’s why then…it’s the boyfriend effect.”

Nicholson Effect

The feeling of unspecified love when a person is outside their everyday living environment (City/Town/Village). Usually confused with sexual urges. Often leads to people cheating while away from their families. On the other hand it can bring romantic partners closer to each other. Or it can just manifest as a deeper appreciation for a different city.
It wasn't the Nicholson effect that conditioned me to fall in love with that person while on vacation. It was the person themselves.
