Onion Effect

A phenomenon in which a person's odor is so potent that it causes others' eyes to burn and tear up, much like the effects of cutting an onion.

Downhill effect

When a film contains a number of good scenes which are almost immediately followed by scenes of a far lesser quality, causing the film to slowly move downhill until there's no hope in sight. The downhill effect was made popular by Raymond Walter back in 1988 with his film "Blue Code."
"The Perks of Being a Wallflower" really suffered from the downhill effect unlike the much superior film "Me and You and Everyone We Know."

Stupid effect

The stupid effect is when cute online couples break up. For example, david and liza(their ship name is stupid hence the name of this effect) or Lauren and Alex.

The Shardy affect/effect

yes effect or affect because the shardy affect/effect is when a man or woman finds people who are potentially attracted to them or even the slightest bit attracted to them(cute) and manipulates them unconsciously making you think the world is yours when really it’s all a similar situation to a genjutsu and you hold no power except defeat
from the perspective of the “shardy” the shardy affect/effect is when a person who is the slightest bit attracted to you even just thinking you look cute can easily be manipulated, making them think u are giving them the world and you are all they need in life gaslighting and ego boosting them with toxic love for example hype them up for 2 days in a row telling them how attractive they are and the 3rd day act like they are just “ighh” then proceed to follow up the next day by telling them u apologize if u came off rude your just “going through a lot” and proceed to hype them up eventually you will do this unconsciously and their love will grow uncontrollably for you to the point where they will do anything for you.

The Soulmate Effect

No matter how dismal or down you are you talk to this one person and they either make you feel better or stand right next to you until you are through your struggle.
I couldn't have made it through that awkward week with that weird theater carny caravan without that counter balance of The Soulmate Effect over the phone.
