Get the Tyson Effect mug.The effect caused by an artificial and arbitrarily imposed wait on an action you're waiting for a human to process even though it could and should be completely and totally fucking automated in 2021. The human in question at the end of the waiting period will literally pick up a clipboard or look at some excel sheet and click process on some 90s looking terminal program to make whatever you're waiting for happen and ultimately relieve you of the agony. Named after the Futurama storyline of them unfreezing people after x amount of years have passed from their death.
- Hey Marge, that international wire transfer you were waiting for has finally came through after 20 days, must have been a mess to process for them.
- Nah, I think we're just unknowing victims of the futurama effect.

Get the The Shark Effect mug.The unhealed part of women that will always choose a white boy even when there are significantly better options.
This is because over the past decade, Gen Z girls have grown up watching the unattainable Magcon boys (Cameron Dallas, Nash Grier, Jack Gilinsky, Shawn Mendes) and will never stop needing to prove to themselves that they can pull the token white boy.
Millenials, see “Chad Michael Murray Effect,” for further context on this phenomenon.

Get the The Magcon Effect mug.A political and psychological phenomenon where people hate a leader, vote or fight to remove them, then later start wishing they were back in charge — usually after experiencing disappointment with their replacement.
The cycle goes like this:
1. “This leader is awful!”
2. “Let’s get someone better.”
3. “Wait, this is worse.”
4. “Maybe the old guy wasn’t so bad after all…”
5. “We need him back!”
This happens with dictators, presidents, prime ministers — anyone in charge. The Leader Effect is fueled by nostalgia, frustration, instability, and unrealistic expectations.

"Some Iraqis missing Saddam is a clear case of The Leader Effect."
"Voters switching from Trump to Biden, then wanting Trump back shows The Leader Effect."

Get the the day after tomorrow effect mug.Kaleidoscope Effect: A cognitive and perceptual phenomenon where an individual views their specific religion or belief system as the exclusive truth, thereby limiting their awareness of broader, universal spiritual concepts, such as God = Light + Awareness. This effect can cause individuals to focus narrowly on the patterns and teachings within their own religious framework, much like how a kaleidoscope presents a single, fragmented view, rather than recognizing the interconnected and expansive nature of spiritual reality.
This metaphor captures the idea that, while a kaleidoscope offers beautiful and intricate patterns, it can also restrict one’s view to those patterns alone, obscuring the larger, more unified picture. By naming this effect, you highlight the importance of transcending religious exclusivity to embrace a more inclusive understanding of spirituality.

“Many people experience the kaleidoscope effect, where they see their own religion as the sole path to truth, preventing them from embracing the broader concept of God as Light and Awareness beyond religious boundaries.”
