Sassoon Effect

When you’re convinced something is real because it sounds real, but you’re not sure whether you actually remember it or your brain just made it up.

Originates from a Codenames game where a player confused Sassoon with the Streisand Effect and confidently assumed the “Sassoon Effect” was a legitimate concept. It wasn’t — and now it’s used to describe those moments when you can’t tell whether something actually exists or your brain completely fabricated it.
Was there a movie where Jim Carrey played a cowboy or am I having the Sassoon Effect?

Vidal Sassoon

The most effective way to get rid of a female when you're hittin' it doggie but not feeling it is to simultaneously pull her hair with one hand while screaming out loud, Oh my God it huuuuurts"

while spraying a bottle of Vidal Sassoon conditioner on her back.
Yo Reggie was telling me that he wasn't feeling Monique the other night so he pulled the Vidal Sassoon.

SASdonny

a deluded and rather sad individual who believes they are in the SAS. they talk about missions to war torn areas with a blatant disregard for the facts, which is why we know he is lying! they work out several times a day to build some slight definition of the pectorals, but this is way too little to make the facade believable.

sassafrassiest

A Sassafrassiest is someone who doesn't believe in a Christian God, and instead believes that old people hold the secrets to the meaning of life. Basically, it is the most important religion ever, for no good reason.
I visited the Sassafrassiest shrine last week and paid my respects. They had a picture of an old man cut out of a magazine.
