Domiho Effect

The effect by which, like dominoes, a man dating a very good looking woman leads to more good looking women wanting to date him. From the root words domino and whore or ho’. The ho’ in this case is not referring to prostitution, but rather to a slang reference towards women that just want to have sex with someone. In this case it does not usually apply to men as men are almost all whores by that definition. Applies to men like Pete Davidson and Billy Bob Thorton dating a string of women above their expected success level. Coined by Adam Carolla on his September 9, 2021 Adam Carolla show podcast.

After Pete Davidson dated Ariana Grande, Kate Beckinsale and Cindy Crawford’s daughter were the next “Domihoes” to fall. The first leading to (knocking over) the rest happens by the Domiho Effect.

Wilshaw Effect

The "Wilshaw Effect" is a term coined to describe the cumulative and adverse impact on cognitive function, morale, and decision-making resulting from prolonged exposure and proximity to the phenomenon known as the "Wilshaw."

Similar to radiation exposure, this effect is particularly potent in hot, arid, sandy regions. Suspected to also negatively influence intangible aspects such as Peace, Love, and Happiness, the Wilshaw Effect necessitates individuals to distance themselves indefinitely from the source of the Wilshaw in order to mitigate its deleterious consequences. The only recognized remedy for the Wilshaw Effect is the removal of oneself from the prevailing influence, acknowledging its potential long-term consequences on various aspects of well-being.

Mike: "Goddamnit, what happened to this place!!! It's barely functioning and people keep leaving. This project is falling apart!"
Steve: "I believe that's the Wilshaw Effect. We could do something about it but then the project wouldn't be ohhhh so fucking profitable."

iPhone effect

The phenomenon where iPhone users are perceived as more attractive than Android users or those without any smartphone, often tied to social status and branding.

At the party, I couldn’t help but notice the iPhone effect; everyone flocked to the girl with the latest iPhone, while the Android users stood awkwardly in the corner.
