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!"

Rusty Spoon Effect

This is when a person does something so bloody unexpected, so stupid, that it actually works.
Just like a terrorist running at you with not a bomb, but a rusty spoon

E.g. You go round a corner expecting someone to jump you, but they are actually lying down in the middle of the hallway
Person 1 - "Scared you!"
Person 2 - "You where duct taped to the ceiling, bloody Rusty Spoon Effect"

The Namjoon Effect

The Namjoon Effect is a phenomenon that makes you become a wheezing mess.

It happens a lot when you watch a sinful namjoon fanfiction, or pictures of him showing his tiddies.
