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.

The unintentional act of driving a student or pupil away from the teachings or advice that you are trying to give them. The more you attempt to mold them, the more they reject your suggestions and move in the opposite direction.

I try to teach my son about being dependable and listening to his elders, but he is as wild and crazy as a dog in a hub cap factory. You're suffering from the Obi-Wan effect.

A more extreme version of the Streisand Effect, the Tunison Effect occurs when someone is so self unaware as to not realize their constant whining about a very ignorable problem only calls further attention to the problem.
Mike’s incessant whining about something that happened a decade ago and everyone else has forgotten about only creates a bigger Tunison Effect.

aka dunning-kruger effect
a type of cognitive bias where people with little expertise or skill assume they have superior expertise or skill. This overestimation occurs as a result of the fact that they lack the knowledge to know that their knowledge isn't sufficient.
