The effect of you befriending someone over a fandom and becoming extremely close with them, then watching them move on onto different things and them ingoring you as they get new friends, this also can go with relationships.

n: what you experience when you travel in Melbourne's public transport rail system. Delayed trains, dirty seats, violent ticket inspectors, passengers squashed in like sardines.

Characterized by unexpected and often humorous mishaps, such as losing one's game or accidentally spilling a drink. The TB Effect encapsulates those moments where the mere interaction with, or proximity to, a particular individual seems to disrupt the usual flow of events, leading to minor yet noticeable errors or accidents.

A major political and social issue that arises when during election season, Republicans and Democrats have more access to the media, public relations professionals, and have more education and training on how to effectively campaign in political elections than nonmainstream political parties have, which results in the Republicans in Democrats winning more elections than nonmainstream political parties. Many members of the general public have been conditioned by the mainstream political parties to believe this is acceptable when in fact it is not. The best way to address this problem is actively work to ensure that nonmainstream political parties have more access to the media, p.r. professionals, and education on how to effectively run a political campaign.
