Renata Effect

N. A theory describing a situation in which an individual commandeers a conversation, only to immediately make that conversation exceedingly boring.

Professor: "Let us now examine the Renata Effect. Notice how this group of five people were initially discussing the very interesting topic of the difference between a chode and a taint when one of the individuals aggressively hijacked the topic at hand, only to begin telling a mundane story about the rate at which certain traffic lights change."

An effect particular to people who frequently play quiz games on sporcle.com, whereupon they easily remember obscure facts but forget glaringly obvious ones.

Oh this is great, the Sporcle Effect in full form here. I remembered Kyrgyzstan and Papua New Guinea, but not the friggin' UK!

The Gerstmann Effect

Basically when people hate on you for being honest or forthright with your opinions. You stand by your principals no matter what, this can often be misconstrued as having no regard for the feelings of others, but in reality only shows integrity and sincerity.

People hate you regardless.

The Gerstmann Effect:-

Jeff Gerstmann: "Kane & Lynch Sucks Balls."
Eidos: "Well you can eat shit."
Gamespot: "Yeah... umm... dude... your fired."
Jeff Gerstmann: "Why?!!"
Gamespot: "A bunch of stuff... but definitely not because you said Kane & Lynch sucked Balls."
