I wish I also had the ziediņš effect.

cache effects

A made up reason explaining some phenomenon. Has no real meaning, but is used as a placeholder for BS-ing, especially in computer science.

Sam: Dr. Plank, what causes those strange aberrations in your graph?
Dr. Plank: Don't worry Sam, those are just cache effects.

The Raiden Effect

When a game creator takes a character they made super bitchy in their first appearance, and tries to make them super bad-ass for later appearances, but over-does it so much that they still seem super bitchy, just also over-powered. The original "Raiden Effect" of course being 'Raiden'c from MGS2, later to appear in MGS4 as a super bad-ass cyborg thing.

"Man, remember when Riku was a bitch in the first Kingdom Hearts game? He's got 'Raiden Effect' up the ass now." "Man, they took a weak whiny kid and made him the main character... The Raiden Effect strikes again."
