The Perkins Effect

A dangerous social syndrome in which young, unsuspecting girls continue to find themselves attracted to an older, shifty boy, despite his obvious intentions to use them physically. The syndrome seems to be so far developed as to involve actual feelings of respect and admiration on the part of the young female victim.

"I don't understand how the freshmen girls always fall for senior guys, it's not fair!"

"It's The Perkins Effect."

Bindel Effect

Bindel Effect

Named after Julie Bindel's infamous "put men in concentration camps" quote. Similar to the Streisand Effect, this is the name for when a shithead SJW says something that makes them sound like a psycho or asshole, then claims it was a joke or removes it from the internet to cover their saggy ass after receiving backlash from everyone who isn't a dick. It is prominent with certain types of nut-jobs as well, but for different reasons.

"Did you hear what Clara said? Apparently she believes everyone who's anti-feminism should be sterilized."
"...I thought that was a joke."
"Ah, the Bindel Effect strikes again."

Fauci Effect

A fabricated term coined by the AAMC to explain an "increase" in medical school applications in 2020 when in reality 1) Completed medical school applications didn't increase 2) A recession prompted increase in higher education 3) The AAMC caused families to get COVID-19 by refusing to waive the MCAT or administer it virtually. So damage control.

The AAMC made up the Fauci Effect so students can take the MCAT and get on a ventilator a week later!

bystander effect

When witnessing a situation of an victim and 'incriminator', the degree of responsibility the witness has in helping the victim or stopping the 'crime' in progress. The degree of responsibility usually depends on three criteria; 1. Whether the victim is deserving of help, 2. The competence of the bystander, 3. The relationship between the bystander and the 'victim'. The bystander can intervene in usually two different ways; direct intervention, or, calling authorities.

I saw an old lady getting her purse taken by some thug, i just stood by and watched... later i felt confused and guilty. The feeling i felt could be described as the bystander effect
