Also known as the birthday blues, this effect is a statistical phenomenon where an individual's likelihood of death appears to increase on or close to their birthday, e.g. due to skydiving in order to celebrate birthday
They say there's a birthday effect, so I’m skipping the skydiving this year; I don’t want to become a statistic.

The Super Meat Boy Effect is an effect coined by the YouTuber and Twitch streamer Failboat where the idea is the task at hand isn't that hard, but the issue is that because you died to it so much, you now die on the other parts because you're trying to get to the part you're having trouble faster, which then causes the cycle to loop all over again.
Guy: Goddammit! Why can't I get to the end?!
Guy 2: Looks like The Super Meat Boy Effect is in full play.

When you eat something a second time and it is no where near as good as the first time you tried it.
Billy: Why does food never taste as good as the first time you ever tried it, the second time is always worse!
Jim: Well that’s an easy answer, it’s called the baconater effect; the second time is always worse. The first time I tried a baconator, orgasmic, the second time, mediocre at best… and thus you have the baconator effect.

The bleached-butthole effect —
1. when a shocking, extreme and uncommon subject seems to be more prevalent and relevant than in actuality and receives disproportionate attention in public discourse, to the expense of normal but often critically important subjects
2. when some butthead exploits the bleached-butthole effect for profit, distracting our collective attention away from more relevant and important things, just so butthead and co. can make a buck
3. when the fourth estate promotes this drama, as they're in the business of keeping our attention, and distractions and theatrics are an effective means of doing so
