Poptart Effect

Something that is so negative, that it is positive or something so positive, that it's negative.

Based on the old Poptart advertising of "So hot, it's cool. So cool it's hot".

Person 1: "That movie was so bad, it's actually good."
Person 2: "Yup, confirmed Poptart Effect."

second Pop-Tart effect

The wonder and excitement comparable to eating one Pop-Tart in a package, forgetting about the second one, and rediscovering the second one later.

I thought I was out of money until I looked in my old pants pockets, found a 20, and experienced second Pop-Tart effect.
