The Wal-Mart Effect

When you've become a permanent employee of Wal-Mart - where you've paved your destiny by binding yourself to work there for the rest if your life, it is inevitable that you will become a fatty, a super fatty fat fatty, some could even argue morbidly obese fatty. This comes from the depression and misery & rollercoaster of negative emotions that comes with being employed with Wal-Mart. Every employee that works their way up in the store, undoubtedly, experiences The Wal-Mart Effect. Fattys.

Friend 1: Hey buddy, you've gained some weight since I seen you last!
Friend 2: Yeah, I got hit with the Wal-Mart Effect when I became a customer service manager.

Friend 1: Wow, our manager sure is a wide load!
Friend 2: Well yeah, every manager falls victim to The Wal-Mart Effect.

Manager: Go wash the windows.
Employee: Whatever you fat loser, if you don't kill yourself, The Wal-Mart Effect will claim you, fat ass.

Misused Autopilot Effect

This effect happens when consumers of a product (such as DAIN App or especially Telsa Autopilot) incorrectly uses a product, and unknowingly damages the reputation of certain software or products. The most notable case is Telsa's autopilot, where people are negligent and recklessly drive and get into accidents, damaging the reputation and credibility of those consumer products from news outlets reporting on these incidents.

James: "Ugh, another case of the misused autopilot effect! I wish people would start paying more attention while driving!"
Adam: "Yeah, isn't negligent driving, like, illegal?
James: "It is. It really is."
