The Cumberbatch Effect

When the mind encounters a face that by all accounts should be seen as incredibly strange looking, but instead interprets it as ridiculously attractive. This term is displayed strongly by, and named for, British actor Benedict Cumberbatch.
Girl one: "His cheekbones don't even make sense, and his head is so tall. He should be ugly. . . why am I aroused?"
Girl two: "It's the Cumberbatch Effect"
Girl one: "It's just like James Marsters all over again"

The Goldlust Effect

Named after the Brown University scientist who first formally characterized it, The Goldlust Effect is a phenomenon in which an email recipient mentally hears the author's physical voice while reading the message. Closely related is the Holmes Effect, in which an email recipient mentally sees the author's physical mannerisms and gesticulations while reading the message.
When I started reading my old collegiate acapella friend's message, The Goldlust Effect was so strong that I instinctively turned around and accused my wife of launching vocal percussion spittle onto the back of my neck.

The Maza Effect

Vox Media "journalist" Carlos Maza recently went on a woke crusade to deplatform comedian Steven Crowder from YouTube.
This in itself failed, but the side effect of this was YouTube updating its policies, which wound up affecting creators across the site. As of now, YouTubers and even journalists are finding their channels demonetized for "offensive content".
This incident is the first example of something louder, dumber, and more devastating than the Streisand Effect - The Maza Effect.
My channel was demonetized due to "offensive content"?
Goddammit, I got hit by the Maza Effect.

The Camilla Effect

The effect of a woman being eternally adored by a man because she is an ideal woman, rather than a perfect beauty. This term was coined in honor of Camilla Parker-Bowles, who has kept Prince Charles completely captivated for 40 years.
My friend Andrew just emailed me a pic of a woman he knew in college whom he claimed looked like a model back then and is just as hot as she was 30 years ago. All I saw was a middle-aged woman with a sensible haircut, dark glasses and wrinkles. Must be The Camilla Effect.
