I met my professor in real life the other day and was so nervous but it was just the joselle effect and she’s actually really tiny

Get the Verhoeven Effectmug. When members of a marginalized community with a reputation for not defending itself actually defend themselves in a way that sparks not only immediate resistance, but also a long-term movement for equality. Derived from the Stonewall Riots of June, 1969, which are generally regarded as a turning point in the history of LGBT civil rights activism throughout the world.
When the kids from the Glee Club gave the guys from the football team a sound thrashing, it triggered a stonewall effect throughout the school, and nothing was ever the same again.

Get the Stonewall Effectmug. To be the one that dies behind a teammate when that teammate should be the one to die in a video game.
While playing a video game, the player dies even though his teammates should have died first due to being the one that the enemy is targeting or should have targeted first. This effect occurs when one is unlucky enough to die first or be the only one to die when his friends/teammates should have been the one to die due to being in front of him/her.

Example:
* 2 Players enter a room and the enemy kills the second player but not the first *
Brandon: How did I die and you lived when I entered the room second?!?!
Tristan: LOL, that's the Chen Effect for you.

Get the The Chen Effectmug. The exponential viewership growth one receives after spending a weekend with a group of degenerate streamers called OTK.

Get the OTK Effectmug. Occurs when a girl thinks she has found a man that will make all her dreams come true. It doesn't matter about reality--because she views him as her 'beau'--she becomes oblivious to his shortcomings and is totally enamored with the smallest of things. Even a one-word text message becomes loaded with meaning for her.
(Girl looks at her phone and smiles, all dreamy-eyed)
Roommate: what's up? You look tooooo happy...
Girl: oh nothing, I just got the sweetest text from Cedric!
Roommate: (cynically) Really! What pearl of wonderfulness did he say, if you don't mind my asking..
Girl: (with stars in her eyes) he said "Sup!"
Roommate: (muttering quietly) It's the friggin' placebeau effect at work again...

Get the Placebeau Effectmug. The process of shitting but only half way, and then proceeding to suck it back in and out to simulate another man, specifically Patrick Bogar, fucking you in the ass.
