Mike Wazowski Effect

The phenomena in which people remember something a certain way but in reality it was never that way at all. Remember those memes mid 2020 where people would edit Mike Wozowski from Monsters Inc and give him two eyes instead of the one that he actually had. That meme became really popular, so much so that it was first image that would pop up when you would look up Mike Wozowski. This caused massive confusion, making Mike with one eye look unnatural.

Mike Wazowski

1.) A clever Pixar character from Monsters, Inc. and Monsters University who managed to repower and escape from a sealed away door in the second (first in chronological order) film. He's read tons of books on scaring and is an expert at it. His knowledge allows him to parallel Sullivan's beastly prowess in the area and business career of scaring. He's Sully's best friend. They've known each other from their University days and possibly even before. He provides witty, clever, genius and knowledgeable tips to Sully and others about scaring, finance and business. Very funny, he knows how to take jokes and has a good sense of humor. A nice clever guy to hang out with. It's nice to have someone like this in real life.
2.) This is based on the famous breakout from the sealed and contained door from Monsters University. To pull off a Mike Wazowski means to find a quick simple rapid far reaching solution to a complicated problem with cunning and clever well cut skill, typically on an Exam or maybe even a project of some kind.
Examples
1.) Mike Wazowski is so clever and inventive. I enjoy hanging out with him and his buddy Sully. We like to watch scary films, practice scaring, talk about business, products, travel, magazines and whatever opportunities we can find out in the fiercely vibrant exploratory world of business and life.

2.) Did you see that Engineering & Materials exam? Trevor managed to pull of a Mike Wazowski on one of the problems. It was amazing. You should have seen it. He first gave out a few condition statements. It was parallel, well-bound and a few other things, and then crunched out this nice cool path which none of the other students got. And he got it right too. At first the instructor thought it was wrong, but there was some confusion due to an underground gas leak. It turns out he was correct. That was quite the jump. I hope he's okay.

The Big Wazowski

The Big Wazokski is an alternate process for circumcision. The act is similar to how you remove a tooth by tying a string around it and tying that to a door, then slamming it.

It's that but it's your foreskin with a string tied around it.
"I wasn't circumcised as a kid, but I'm getting real tired of cleaning my foreskin so my friend and I are gonna perform The Big Wazowski to solve the issue."
