Jake: "I just finished watching that new movie review, it totally had The Vsauce Effect!"
Paul: "Yeah bro, I learned so much, but nothing at the same time! Crazy!"

Campanella Effect

The sense of almost boyish enthusiasm that comes over middle aged men when pursuing a hobby that requires expensive stuff and leaves non-hobbyists scratching their heads to figure out why it's so damned important. (Derived from Roy Campanella's observation about baseball: "You got to have a lot of little boy in you to play this game.")

When Jerry began talking about model railroading, it was easy to see the Campanella Effect in action.

piranha effect

The term for when a guy gets a girlfriend and immediately becomes desired by other girls. It is a sociological phenomenon involving social status, showing that the man is okay to be desired. He has been approved by a sociological microcosm as a man who would make a good mate. It also involves competition, the guy is almost a prize now, something that can be won in a competition.

Once one piranha bites, they all swarm.

Single guy walks down hallway, girls barely notice. Guy gets with hottie and now girls can't stay away.

Guy's Friend: Man, the piranha effect worked wonders for him!

Snowglobe Effect

Snowglobe Effect is when a community, or country (America being a prime example), who lives in the relatively safe confines and pleasant conditions of a 1st world country, crime-free neighborhood, etc, collectively form opinions based on ignorance and with little to no understanding of anything outside their "bubble haven" or echo chamber. This demographic who could be coined as highly opinionated snowflakes, initiate in controversial and political topics with little understanding of politics and living conditions of others around the world.

America suffers from Snowglobe Effect.
