The Quote Effect

When you post something on Twitter and someone quotes you, you reply with something that makes you look even stupider than what the original post said.

Jax Effect

The Jax Effect occurs when you have a problem but it miraculously fixes itself the moment someone else looks at the problem.
I brought my computer problem to Jax at IT and it fixed itself the moment she looked it. The Jax Effect just happened.

"Hey Jax. My learning modules aren't loading when I try to launch them. I keep getting an 'Access Denied' Not sure what's going on."
"OK let me take a look. Oh it looks like it's loading fine and I didn't even have to do anything."
"OMG I just got Jaxed! Thank you!"
"You're very welcome!"

"Hey can you come over here? Something's messed up."
"OK. What is it?" Walks over.
"When I click this, nothing happens... oh wait.. What? It's working now. It wasn't working before."
"You just got Jaxed."
