PETA effect

The PETA effect is when an individual or group of individuals rally for a cause that would have almost 100% support yet their toxic methodology causes so much hatred that their efforts actually become detrimental to their cause.
Did you see a female politician in Texas proposed a law to fine men $100 for masturbating as a way to show how absurd some proposed laws towards women are? If that is her attempt at strengthening women's rights it is going to have the PETA effect.

leon effect

The way in which whenever you talk about anything you own, particularly on an internet forum, some idiot will immediately post a load of utter bollocks about how what they have is more advanced/expensive and how what you have is decrepid and shit.
I posted my new computer build on a forum for people to comment on and some moron immediately told me it belonged in the bin because if I spent and extra £3000 I could get something marginally faster. I was experiencing the leon effect.

The Ray-Ban Effect

The Ray-Ban effect is an international phenomenon.

Any male of any age, who wears signature black Ray-Ban sunglasses, seem to instantly increase their physical attractiveness by a minimum of fifty percent. Ray-Bans happen to compliment any male's face and overall style. One can easily assume the male has a great sense of fashion if they are wearing Ray-Bans.
Me: "Wow, that guy looks hot."
Zoe: "That's only because he's wearing Ray-Bans."
Me: "True; it must be The Ray-Ban Effect."
