The Rucka Effect

Describes a cause-and-effect scenario of reposting media that is deemed offensive by social media platforms, and removed from said platforms, i.e., forbidden fruit content; the more it's censored and taken down, the more people will wish to view it, and the more people will want to upload it for others to consume and redistribute, as described below.

This, in theory, is the basis of Shitposting, and the basis of memery in general.

Derives from when parody rapper Rucka Rucka Ali's fandom, Rucka's Nuckas, began re-uploading his videos to YouTube, after YouTube banned the original postings on his own YouTube channel, such as his music video of his parody of Macklemore's "Thrift Shop", "I'm Osama".

The Rucka Effect is in full swing - a new Nazi Pug video has been banned from YouTube, but it's only made it more popular!

The Rodriguez Effect

Not caring what critics say of your creative work because you know your work is good and you like it and that's all that matters. Inspired by Robert Rodriguez's film and television career: he wrote and directed The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl which was panned by critics, but the quirks and general weird vibes that defined the film are what sets it apart from other children's films and are the reason we're still talking about it.

(In 2020, Rodriguez directed The Tragedy, the 14th episode of The Mandalorian, which was met with critical acclaim and regarded by many as the best episode of the series. Do with that what you will.)

I was sad when my professor said my design wasn't successful during review, but then The Rodriguez Effect kicked in and I felt better instantly because I love my design and I know I'm already a legend.

Boomerang Effect

When it's a joke or a pun and you miss the main punch line but catch it later and it hits you in the back of the head at a random time

Ohhhh I just got that joke from earlier

Sorry my minds like a boomerang effect lately
