The Potter Effect
When something ubearable and disgusting becomes extremely popular only because it's... popular.
This usally happens when the popular kids at some schools take interest in something (those kids are dumbasses and have no sence of judgement) stumble across something they see on MTV or something and fall in love with it. The popularity will spread through America (and sometimes the world, like this definition's name sake: Harry Potter). The people's minds will be convinced that they like what they are seeing/hearing/reading/watching. If these objects were not popular, anybody who would have been a fan would notice how horrible it really is.
