Adam experienced The North Effect when he rewatched “North” starring Elijah Wood. After rewatching it as an adult, Adam experienced severe disappointment after realizing the movie was in fact - fucking terrible.

Get the poungs effect mug.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 Prollywoke effect mug.Lisa Effect (n). The positive change in someone's feelings from being bummed-out to being happy, because of a visit from or to someone named "Lisa". Recurring plot point in Scrubs (Season 2 episode 10, Lisa the "gift shop girl"), Cheers (Coach's daughter, 1982, (Season 1, Episode 5)), and Frasier (Lisa Maxwell, season one, the first 'Daphne'). All three examples are NBC products, maybe a coincidence. And don't forget Lisa Kudrow from "Friends". She is a go-to person when people are upset. Also NBC.
I felt like crap when I got up this morning, but got the Lisa effect at lunchtime, now I'm good to go.
