When people hate you because you are truly a better person then they are. People hate you for being kind, more attractive, smarter or any similar virtuous quality.
Stupid Flanders is half my weight and twice my age!” — Homer Simpson

Ex: “Attorney Brandt S. is such a horrible person and, was experiencing The Flanders Effect so badly, that he couldn’t even bring himself to speak to his kind, beautiful, intelligent client named Meg B.”

Get the The Flanders Effect mug.
The phenomenon wherein a storyteller slightly exaggerates small details of a story every time it is retold to the point where an interesting story becomes outrageously unbelievable.
Storyteller: So now we're flying around the turn at 120 MPH...
Listener 1: Hold on, last time you said you were going 110 MPH, and the time before that 100 MPH...
Listener 2: Sounds like your story has been corrupted by the Flander Effect.
