Fuji Effect

When you see someone from far away and think that they're attractive, but on closer inspection realize that they are really, *really* not.

This is like Mt. Fuji in Japan--beautiful from far away, but ugly, dirty, cold, and generally uninhabitable once you get close to it.

Also known as the Mt. Fuji Effect or the Fuji-san Effect.

On arriving at a party:

Girl #1: Ooo, that guy's pretty hot.
Girl #2: You think?

But when they get closer:

Girl #1: Oh, no, never mind. Fuji Effect.

Kafi Effect

A conceptual process in which an individual, institution, or system rapidly descends from a state of peak performance or prestige into a significantly diminished or unstable state. It implies a collapse not caused by gradual decline, but by a sharp tipping point—often due to overreach, hubris, or external shock.

Arz was ranked 3rd—until he started duoing with Kafi. Within days, he tumbled to 19th, a brutal showcase of the Kafi Effect in action.

The PaRtiCLES Effect

A Stalcraft player who has a large ego and leads a clan to where the leader of the clan starts talking too much shit for their own good. To the point that other clans will happily team up against thus clan and stomp on them. Eventually this negative feedback loop will lead to the implosion of the clan with the leaders bootlickers leaving the clan off to lick another clan leaders boots.

see how "Bob's" dumbass clan fell because he never learned what the "The PaRtiCLES Effect" was and ran his mouth with so much ego it could kill a fat person larping as a femboy.

Arkham Subreddit Effect

When a subreddit randomly goes batshit insane, with stupid shitposts and genuinely insane people. Originally from r/batmarkham, hence the name.

Guy 1: All of my favorite subreddits are being flooded with stupid shitposts. What the fuck does "is he stupid?" even mean!?

Guy 2: Blame the Arkham Subreddit Effect...

Guy 1: Why?

Guy 2: Just take a stroll through r/batmanarkham and come back after 10 seconds.
