A situation in which your own natures, actions, or perceptions of/in a subject (such as things you do while driving) are being discussed in a negative way without the speakers (the people talking about it) knowing that it applies to you, creating an extremely awkward scenario where you didn't know that what you did is something your friends or co-workers, or whoever is discussing the subject, despise.
When we were talking about annoying drivers, it was hard not to laugh at Dan who had a shocked face like he was experiencing the selfmisactory effect.

The Mungus effect (named after Hugh Mungus) describes the backfiring of a post made by a SJW or triggered Feminist about how she got "assaulted" or "harassed". More specifically:
In the attempt to show that she was harassed and to shame the "assaulter", she posts a video or description of the situation. The online community then mostly responds with an outrageous cry, that she souldn't be as easily triggered.

In the novel of Simone de Beauvoir, Fosca is a man who is the only one who cannot die. However, he becomes unhappy because all his friends die and leave him. The Fosca effect is therefore the feeling of an old person when he or she outlives their friends and the other people around them also disappear. It is a mixture of melancholy, pride and the guilt of still being alive.
Why is your father so sad? It's the Fosca effect, another one of his school friends has died.
I really must write my memoirs. It's probably the Fosca effect: if I don't do it, who else will?
The Fosca effect is quite natural when you get very old.

In reference to the tower of babel.
That one word, one phrase, one recipe, etc., That is one idea is seen by a many people (dozens, hundreds, thousands, millions, etc), interpreted, researched, thought upon, and yet each person has an entirely different interpretation or concept from the original. Yet can be traced back to the original scource somehow.

Cooking is a good example of the Babel effect. 20 cooks are taught the same exact recipe, yet youll find them each putting a unique spin on the process, flavor, or nutritional value of it
