Prince Andrew Effect

A modernist approach to the Streisand Effect, in which when an attempt to hide, remove, or censor information has the unintended consequence of increasing awareness of that information.

Coined by the masses following British Royal Prince Andrew's request for all testimony in the Maxwell case to be kept secret.

The testimony from the Maxwell case will go public by virtue of the Prince Andrew Effect.

Serial Monogamist

Someone who jumps from one relationship immediately into another one.

Serial monogamists can not stand to be alone and often suffer from vast commitment and insecurity issues.

Because they jump into relationships immediately after the previous one has ended, serial monogamists typically don't take the time to reflect on their behavior or why their previous relationships failed; thus, they end up making the same relationship mistakes over and over again.

Person 1: Damn, Dustin already has a new girlfriend?! It's only been two weeks since he broke up with his fiance! I think he's a sociopath.

Person 2: No, he's a serial monogamist...
