The Zach Effect

The Zach Effect, also simply called Zach Effect is referring to when a guy gets a haircut, and because of that, looks younger. This often only applies to guys who had noticeably longer hair before their haircut. This is sometimes because the guy had short hair when they were younger, and has just got it back, but the effect can happen otherwise as well.

"Did you see Max's new haircut?"
"Yeah, dude. That's the Zach effect at work."

Hype Effect

An effect which occurs when one is anticipating an upcoming game. The need becomes so great that other games become dull and boring in comparison. In more serious cases it can affect the viewing of television programmes, making them seem less interesting as well. In the most severe cases it can affect the viewing of pornography in the same way.

The hype effect is kicking in. Nothing is fun anymore. Not Netflix, not even Pokémon. I can't go on like this.

iPhone effect

The phenomenon where iPhone users are perceived as more attractive than Android users or those without any smartphone, often tied to social status and branding.

At the party, I couldn’t help but notice the iPhone effect; everyone flocked to the girl with the latest iPhone, while the Android users stood awkwardly in the corner.
