The Nipken Effect

When someone goes all in and somehow survives while he is alone. 86.5192% of the time, in your discord call with said person, you will hear Sorye Gei Ton blasted into your headset the moment before the effect occurs. But most of the time, your friend is inting. Yet, the small chance that he doesn't int, he gets a Penta Kill, flashes mastery and says ggez. The Nipken Effect usually occurs in Bronze V.

The Maltempus Effect

An effect where the quality of a group or community deteriorates the longer you stay a part of it.

You think a community is awesome and flawless when you first join it, but as you stay longer and learn about it's wrongdoings, you begin to understand how flawed the server is. This will happen until you either accept the group for what it is, or leave it in disgust.

Friend: Hey, are you still a part of that one Minecraft server?

Me: Not anymore.

Friend: What? I thought you loved that server.

Me: Yea, until I realized how toxic the moderators were.

Friend: Must be The Maltempus Effect at play.

genettabrow effect

The resulting misunderstanding that Jason Schwartzman and Jennifer Connelly procreated upon observation of a particularly thick uni-brow.

The observed browline is also referred to as an omni-brow. Because it can be discerned from all vantage points near or far, its presence is felt.

Dude: "Look at that omni-brow! Did Jason Schwartzman and Jeffifer Connelly have a kid?"

Dude 2: "Nah, thats just the genettabrow effect."

healthy worker effect

This effect suggests that individuals who remain employed tend to be healthier than those who retire or leave the workforce due to health reasons. Essentially, individuals who are healthier and have fewer health issues are more likely to be able to continue working past the retirement age, while those with poorer health or underlying conditions may be more inclined or forced to retire at the statutory age.

Studies show the healthy worker effect is real; people who stay employed often stay healthier, while those who retire early due to health issues tend to be in worse shape.

The Lukez Effect

Referred to as when an overly aggressive ADC player in League of Legends changes a passive support player so much that he/she can never go back to their old playstyle again.
Lukez is famously an overly aggressive Draven main in League of Legends that traumatizes his supports by forcing them to follow up on his coke plays.

I can't stand passive adc's anymore, they never go in when the opportunity arises and it's really tilting. I think I might be suffering from the Lukez effect.

The Resume Effect

The act of learning how to do something because it will look cool, or because it will sound good if you say you can do it.

The reason I learned to play guitar and solve a Rubik's Cube is because of the Resume Effect
