the Ombachi Effect

A joke term, named after the creator of 'The Roaming Chef'

used to describe the effects of foodporn on the supply and demand

of food commodities (for example: cutlery).

It basically states that:

"The more foodporn suggested to internet users,

the greater the demand for food commodities, leading to the diminishing

of supply and increasing of prices for the forementioned commodities."
Person A : Damn, why is there so much inflation nowadays?

Person B: You should blame it on the Ombachi Effect, I guess

Pisani-Reade Effect

When someone or a group of people lie and make false accusations for serious crimes, including rape, pedophilia, etc in order to hide the fact that they're either doing something just as bad if not worse than the person they're accusing or trying to con people that support them in a mega grifting scheme. People that participate in such activities will also harass, guilt trip and back stab other people behind their backs while pretending to care about said person to their face. They also have a large victimization complex where they pretend that they're the victims when they get caught
Did you hear about those people that were lying and falsely accusing that kid of being a creep because of something super arbitrary and stupid?

The LK-99 Effect

In July 2023 a copper and lead based supposed room temperature super-conductor, a material that could revolutionize technology, was proposed by a Korean laboratory, and this lead to a scramble of informal publications by authors from that laboratory trying to claim the work and some quitting their jobs. LK-99 was a dud. This process of prominent scientists losing their sh*t over something which most others in their field believe isn't true while the public is riding the hype train is referred to in some circles as "The LK-99 Effect".
The rumor is that Sam Altman was fired from OpenAI because of his believes about a artificial general intelligence. This is a clear example of the LK-99 Effect
