The act of creating a crash so epic that it seems to have no beginning or end. Just carnage. It also causes people to unintentionally blurt out ‘You can’t park there ‘while driving past.
Me:‘Jesus Christ, you see that crash? That’s a hot mess. The Otis Effect is in play.
Me: “Hey! You can’t park there!!!”
Friend:’Dude! Nooooo!!”
Me: “Hey! You can’t park there!!!”
Friend:’Dude! Nooooo!!”

The Moron-Kruger Effect is a psychological phenomenon/cognitive blackhole, in which, the moron in question lacks sufficient information about a given topic and still chooses to argue as if they know it all.
Main difference between it and the Dunning–Kruger effect is that the moron actively chooses not to educate themselves and uses their previously stated arguments as I they were universally accepted.
4 notable stages of the Moron-Kruger Effect are:
• Indulging in a conversation about a topic that the moron knows/heard little or insufficient information about and shares their thoughts on it.
• When met with scrutiny, the moron will justify their takes as if they were misunderstood.
• The moron is easily enraged at the responses that they had received. Furthering his spiral into confusing misinformation with facts.
• Finally, the moron will now start to double down, knowing that they are in the wrong, yet they choose to not rectify previously made mistakes and will keep spreading misinformation.

Get the Moron-Kruger Effect.mug. The Tutu Effect: n. The phenomenon of misremembering the Mandela Effect, named after Archbishop Desmond Tutu, who many people falsely remember as being Nelson Mandela. This is often caused by confusing the two prominent South African leaders who were active during the anti-apartheid movement. Can also refer to misremembering details about other events or people that are similar in nature. Additionally, it can also refer to meta-irony, where people recognize that they are having a 'Tutu Effect' moment.
I was convinced that Charlize Theron was in the movie 'Aeon Flux' but my friend corrected me and said it was actually Margot Robbie. I must have fallen victim to the Tutu Effect.
