The Flippity-Floppity-Floop Effect

When people (typically white people) start using the metaphors, cadence or slang of another culture simply because it sounds cool, and not because they are familiar with the culture. The effect occurs when the linguistic traits become widespread enough to become diluted and meaningless, and are dropped entirely by their originators.

The word "flippity-floppity-floop" came from South Park, when the issue of language gentrification was briefly touched on (whether intentional or not) in the episode "South Park is Gay". Wherein Chef describes how black people began using the word because white people started saying "hizzouse" and "hizzizouse", with the scene humorously ending with Mr. Garrison using the new word much to Chef's chagrin.

boyfriend effect

The boyfriend effect is when you get with a man who makes you feel safe and comforted and you’re not ashamed to be yourself around them and you don’t feel the constant need to dress up or put make up on. Many people see this as a flaw, but when a girl/woman feels comfortable to let a man see her with wet hair, no make up, and in comfortable clothes, that’s the best feeling. The feeling of secureness.

Friend#1:Girl I think the boyfriend effect is really hitting me i haven’t worn makeup in a week!
Friend#2: Ain nun wrong w it you look happy!

Doc Schmolligan's Effect

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.

Man, her roommate is so much hawter. Time for Doc Schmolligan's Effect to wreck this house!
