The Jacques effect

The phenomenon where an individual’s natural charm, charisma, and radiant energy irresistibly draw people in, creating widespread admiration, loyalty, and even devotion. Those under the Jacques Effect often form fanbases, friendships, or followings without the person even trying.

Doppler-effect horn-blowing

Da annoying dual-pitch "Beeeeeee-yuhhhhhhhh!" dat you hear when some dumba** motorist roars past you while engaging in an "extended honk". Okay, okay --- so maybe he's "just trying to be friendly" by saying hello to a familiar face by the roadside (you), but as gas-station attendant Dale says in the Red Green Show episode, "Hurricane Doug", it's far more cheerful/polite and less startling/grating on the eardrums to just briefly "tap the hooter" a couple times as you go by.
And incident of Doppler-effect horn-blowing can be even more annoying and emotionally draining (i.e., it can become a Droppler effect sometimes) if you either (1) do not recognize whoever it was who honked at you, and so you are left to wonder "who that might have been" and/or if he possibly mistook you for someone else while your back was turned, or (2) don't have a clue as to the driver's reason for honking at you, and so you are left to wonder what you might have been doing that caused him to either notice or be upset with you. Plus of course if there are one or more other people in your immediate vicinity at the time, you may even be unsure if said extended honk was actually "untended for you", or if the driver was noisily "addressing" someone else nearby --- or all of you in general --- instead of you personally.

The Badger Effect

In Among Us, if you finish tasks as a crewmate you can go to security and stay on cams for the game, spotting any impostor and smacking the button. (May translate into the King of FNAF)

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.
