Sprinkler Effect

A sudden mundane and useless event that happens in a movie, like a sprinkler going off, that makes the watcher laugh hysterically, regardless of the director's intentions.

"That scene where the guy parked his car in that movie gave off one hell of a Sprinkler Effect. I was rolling on the floor."

The Boyle Effect

The surprise and delight experienced when something is significantly better than originally anticipated. As per Susan Boyle on Britain’s Got Talent. The judges and audience expected a poor performance based on Susan’s frumpy appearance, but once they heard her beautiful voice – were completely overwhelmed and duly erupted into rapturous applause. If Susan had been more ‘visually appealing’, they would have expected a good performance, and consequently been less moved by the experience.

Real Estate Agent: So....what do you think of the apartment, is it what you are looking for?

House hunter: I love it! I was not expecting it to be anywhere as good as this... the pictures didn’t do it justice. Where are the papers? I must sign up today. Do you think I could get a two year lease?

Real Estate Agent: Gotta love The Boyle Effect.... works every time!

IPR Effect

When a man is in a school with almost all guys and finds most, if not all the handful of girls attractive due to the lack of diversity in the female population.

I find this girl really attractive but I'm afraid it's just the IPR effect
