The Counter-Essence

Another mysterious and destructive power, wielded by none other than Lyras' rival, Grummore. Rumored to mirror the power of The Essence, which seems to resemble creation, both Grummore and The Counter-Essence pose a threat to Grimrock and the race of Grimaces' very existence. It is believed that if the Essence and the Counter-Essence clash, Grimrock island will be revealed to the world.

"Holy Dick! How did you find the counter-essence?"
"I just found it on a fine evening ribs stroll."

The Moon Effect

The Moon Effect is when your luck in video games is good or average at the start, but the more time you invest into the game and the more progress you make, the worse your luck becomes.

The Krakatoa Eruption

Performed during intense doggy-style action, right as you're about to cum, you shove your thumb in your partner's asshole, yell "IT'S ABOUT TO BLOW!" like you're warning a Pacific island village, and immediately spray them with a sudden eruption of chocolate syrup (or any other sticky substance you've cleverly hidden nearby). Bonus points if you throw flour afterward to simulate volcanic ash.

"Bro, she dumped me after I pulled The Krakatoa Eruption, but it was worth it. Her cat is still licking up the chocolate."

The Wilhelm Effect

The Wilhelm Effect is an auditory illusion where the listener has difficulty recognizing the origin of a certain sound effect to truly be the original source after hearing it be sampled many times throughout other types of media. It is named after the Wilhelm Scream. which was used as a sound effect by movies and TV shows many times throughout history.

Person 1: Where exactly did the guy yelling "SHUT THE F*** UP!" come from?
Person 2: It comes from this clip of a Penn and Teller episode.
Person 1: I've heard this sound effect SO MANY TIMES to the point where the original feels edited.
Person 2: That sound effect is a good example of The Wilhelm Effect.

The Ren Effect

Definition: The Ren Effect was inspired by the mantra of multi-disciplinary artist and questionable human Ren Gill (@renmakesmusic). It is the idea that a single person can be moved by an act of kindness, and as they are lifted up, so too will they lift others in a rising tide. The Ren Effect invites people to open themselves up to new ideas and listen to those whose views differ from their own. Ultimately, it is a movement towards a more united world free from hate and greed. It is a reigniting of creativity, a reframing of thought, and the desire to just be a better person.

The Ren Effect inspired me to volunteer at my local homeless shelter, and it has given me a new understanding of the discrimination homeless people can face.
