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.

Grey Lady Effect

*Referring to Lady Helena Ravenclaw from J.K Rowling's Harry Potter*

This happens when someone (Often an offspring/friend/spouse/partner of someone famous) gets overshadowed by well... Someone famous (Like how Helena Ravenclaw was being constantly compared and overshadowed to her mother, Rowena Ravenclaw.). It results on the former being constantly compared to, bullied, underestimated or outright discriminated by clueless people based on the latter (The Famous Person), causing mental strain and low self-esteem.

To famous people who have ordinary children/friends/spouses/partners, please never give the Grey Lady effect to them. It sucks. Real bad.
Severus, son of a celebrity dad: I hate my dad. I love acting, but being constantly compared to my dad's achievements kills me.

Dyl: That's the Grey Lady effect for you.
Phyl: That sucks. Being a shadow to your dad.
Severus: I don't like it. I love my dad, but I hate the people treating me like shit because of his fame. I wish I can just be me.
