The WARP effect

When you look back on the messages of a group chat and see that the other members were involved in a lengthy discourse about the most ridiculous, disturbing, idiotic, strange, unethical or controversial topics. Despite this extreme discussion, your evaluation of those people is not changed because you either assume they are not serious or you believe they are of the nature of expressing opinions or saying things that are ridiculous, disturbing, idiotic, etc.

Person 1: "My friends will just say the strangest things in the group chat"
Person 2: "Does it change how you view them?"
Person 1: "No, not really"
Person 2: "That is what is often refered to as the WARP effect"

Babel effect

In reference to the tower of babel.

That one word, one phrase, one recipe, etc., That is one idea is seen by a many people (dozens, hundreds, thousands, millions, etc), interpreted, researched, thought upon, and yet each person has an entirely different interpretation or concept from the original. Yet can be traced back to the original scource somehow.

Cooking is a good example of the Babel effect. 20 cooks are taught the same exact recipe, yet youll find them each putting a unique spin on the process, flavor, or nutritional value of it
