A social phenomenon where individuals or groups expend more effort and resources when progressing slowly towards a goal, as opposed to when moving swiftly and decisively. This mirrors the biological quirk of kangaroos, who use more energy to move slowly than they do at higher speeds due to their unique muscular and tendon structure.
The team experienced the Kangaroo Effect while working on the project; they were burning out during the planning phase, but once they started executing their tasks, they progressed much more efficiently.

When a person or persons find themselves inexplicably drawn either a trilby, glasses a scarf or all of the above. This person will then want to molest everything that moves. A known symptom of the Carpenter effect also includes blaring classical music from hidden speakers around your body, some may also find themselves compelled to provide a 'tuneful' accompaniment. They will look a bit silly.

An term made by me at 3 am looking at minutephysics video about the grandfather "paradox"
The Grandfather Paradox is when you go back in time and kill your grandfather but since your grandpa is dead, you cant go back in time since.. u know... you dont exist. But since you dont exist your grandpa exists which means YOU exist but then you go back in time and kill your grandpa, and it keeps going on forever.
But in minutephysics video he talks about how it´s NOT an paradox (cant have links sorry)

Me: Have you heard of The Grandfather Effect?
Friend: No. What´s that?
Me: The definition is: If an action makes that action impossible, that action is both possible, and impossible. - Me 2020, it is kinda like Schrödinger's cat.
Friend: Ok, i understand now.

refers to a perceived increase in athletic performance resulting from the synchronization of mental focus, physical readiness, and environmental factors, leading to a state of peak performance beyond normal expectations
The sudden surge in the athlete's performance can be attributed to the elusive Schlungus Mungus Effect, which seemed to heighten their focus and physical capabilities during the crucial match.

This is an effect in movies and tv where there are two groups of people and by the end of the movie or show each person in one of the groups has paired up romantically with someone from the other group. For example how in the musical Grease each of the T birds by the end of the movie is dating one of the pink ladies.
This movie used the Grease Effect to pair up all of the characters.
The Grease Effect was used in White Christmas so that each of the guys could end up with one of the girls.
