quixote-effect

Reference to the sensations that Sancho Panza (most loyal friend of Quixote) has once Quixote dies and a long-lasting adventure comes to an end.

"The feeling of attachment that a fictional world makes upon a person due to the immersion and comfortable ambiance that creates, blurring the line between fiction and reality and creating a feeling of nostalgia."
"The quixote-effect made me want to become a drug-kingpin after watching Breaking Bad."
"I still cry when I watch The Truman Show because of the quixote-effect, it made me escape from my suffering in a lonesome period of my life."
"I cannot see a golden ring without thinking of The Lord of the Rings, I always wanted to become a hobbit... Damn you, quixote-effect!"

The Jerry Effect

The Jerry Effect occurs in the fantasy football league "Get the Belt or Go Home" and ONLY applies to the user Justin and his teams DaBears, Racing With Ruggs, and Waiver Wire Boys. The Jerry Effect is when the user Jerry is out of the league, Justin is winning championships. However, when Jerry is in the league, Justin is not even making the playoffs, and is most likely in last place. This is because the rivaly between Jerry clouds Justin's mind and leads to him making bad moves in fantasy football in order to compete with Jerry. (The Jerry Effect has nothing to do with Jerry winning or losing games)
Justin was the fantasy football champion 🏆 before Jerry joined the league. However now that Jerry is in the league, Justin cannot even make the playoffs. The Jerry Effect
