Avenging Wallflower

Primarily, a basic wallflower who displays a general persona of demure incapability, but is in fact, one of great physical and technical prowess. Generally possess' a vast amount of unheralded, unseen power and go out of their way to be meek and unassuming, at least until a dramatic confrontation of any kind occurs in their vicinity. Whenever any sort of oppressive or aggressive humans (Bullies, jerks, thugs, etc.) are near by and active, they will feel an unholy compulsion to leap into action, screaming and laying waste to all who oppose them with their incredible skills, simply to interfere in the situation and thereby feel that they've done something significant. After they have annihilated any and all participants, they will return to their previous passive state.

Don't beat on Mike; He looks like a nerd, but I hear he's, like, an avenging wallflower.

The Wallflower Effect

When you take a quotable book and make a movie adaption and then white girls in their flocks watch it and quote it till it is exhausted (other activites include writing the quote on various surfaces and places and uploading it to instagram, making galaxy gifs with the quotes, getting cliched tattoos, etc).

The term is dubbed so due to the effect on teenage girls everywhere after the Perks Of Being A Wallflower was adapted into a film 13 years after the release of the book.

'The Fault in Our Stars' by John Green is likely to go through this effect

Example 1:

Kelly: I just got my new tattoo!
Scott: Oh cool, what of?
Kelly: Oh it's one of those sideways 8's and it says 'In That Moment, I swear we were Infinite'
Scott: wtf dumb hoe

Example 2:
(This hasn't happened but it will, I'm sure)
Jenny: Oh I didn't know you smoked you should probably do that outside though
Hannah: I don't smoke. It's a metaphor, I put the killing thing in my mouth but I don't give it the power to kill me <3
Jenny: ???????? *confused because wtf and how did she just do an internet heart in real life*
Hannah: It's a metaphor~~ <3 Augustus Waters <3

These are both examples of The Wallflower Effect

exerpts from the perks of being a wallflower
"I feel infinite."
"I don't want to start thinking again. Not like I have this last week. I can't think again. Not ever again.
I don't know if you've ever felt like that. That you wanted to sleep for a thousand years. Or just not exist. Or just not be aware that you do exist. Or something like that. I think wanting that is very morbid, but I want it when I get like this. That's why I'm trying not to think. I just want it all to stop spinning."
