Obama effect

In politics, when people elect a new president enthusiastically expecting that he will make some major positive change, but after some time realize that things are just as they used to be. The consequence of "obama effect" is being disappointed and feeling totally politically naive.

A: Do you think that Josipovic, the newly elected Croatian president-composer, will succeed in stopping corruption?
B: No, I am afraid it will be just another Obama effect.

The Playground Effect

When you were a little kid and you wanted to play on one of the elements of a public playground however some other kid was already using it. Therefore in order to drive the other child off of that component of the playground without outwardly saying something, you would stand there next to them and wait until they felt awkward enough to leave. After they left you could enjoy that slide or swing until someone else came along and decided to playground effect you!

We noticed that both volleyball courts were occupied, so we decided to use the playground effect so that the occupants would eventually stray away.

Paedophile effect

It's when you see a girl or guy who you know is of legal age and they look hot, but only because they look sweet and innocent like a schoolgirl or schoolboy when in fact they are NOT, that's an effect, when they appear to be younger than they are they look hot.

I wish I could be with that girl, she looks so sweet and innocent
Dude!, she looks like she's 16
It's okay man I know that she's 21
Oh, that must be the paedophile effect everyone's talking about.

Omg I just shower effected all over the seat. I gotta clean up
