Futurama effect

The effect caused by an artificial and arbitrarily imposed wait on an action you're waiting for a human to process even though it could and should be completely and totally fucking automated in 2021. The human in question at the end of the waiting period will literally pick up a clipboard or look at some excel sheet and click process on some 90s looking terminal program to make whatever you're waiting for happen and ultimately relieve you of the agony. Named after the Futurama storyline of them unfreezing people after x amount of years have passed from their death.

- Hey Marge, that international wire transfer you were waiting for has finally came through after 20 days, must have been a mess to process for them.
- Nah, I think we're just unknowing victims of the futurama effect.

Boombox Effect

This very rarely occurs when you play the "Chicken Dance" in a very conveniently plain field with a single tree in the state of Nevada, optionally needs a dancer in the background. Approached by a man, you must push him to complete the objective, however this will result in your untimely demise at the hands of said man, named Hank J. Wimbleton. Fortunately, your legacy will result in 12 episodes that escalate from fighting Jeb (jesus but not really), to a sheriff, a clown who breaks the laws of physics seeking vengeance, and a demon.

At the time of writing, this currently has only been attempted once, with great success.

"12 episodes later...this was the result of 1 guy with a boombox, we call it the boombox effect"

The Jj effect

The Jj effect (it will be studied for millennia) is a beautifully complex effect. An incredible outplay? The Jj effect is present. An awful int play? The Jj effect is present. A pointless solo shatter? The Jj effect is present.
No one truly knows what the Jj effect entails, and it's true meaning is yet to be discovered (hence it shall continue to be studied for millennia to come).

insert gamertag has just witnessed the Jj effect (it will be studied for millennia)
