The 'Raven' effect.

When you cause an event to happen by trying to avoid it.
Trying to stop something from happening while causing it to happen.

Derives from Thats so Raven since she always tries to not let her visions come through by actually causing them to happen.

Coined by Robert A. Taylor Jr. Jamaica
E.g. As a woman, offers to pay for a dinner so your date will think highly of you. But then he tells you that you obviously dont know how to be treated by a man.

Eg. As a parent, go to your child's school on the first day to ensure he doesnt get bullied, but the kids make fun of him calling him a baby because youre there.

So you cause The 'Raven' Effect. by going there in the firsr place.

The Fueled By Ramen Effect 

The “Fueled By Ramen” Effect refers to the idea that whenever a band gets signed to the record label Fueled By Ramen, their sound becomes a lot more pop-oriented and generic. The idea seemed to cement itself in reality shortly after Fueled By Ramen joined the umbrella label Elektra in 2018.
Person 1: “Yo, are you excited for the new Waterparks album?”
Person 2: “Nah, the Fueled By Ramen Effect got to them. The new stuff just doesn’t hit as hard.”
Fogey/fogy /fougi/ sl. (early 18C+, orig. Scot) old-fashioned, stuck-in-the mud.
Person with old fashioned ideas which he is unwilling to change: Come to the disco and stop being such an old fogey!
You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)

church hurt 

church hurt is where you experience a degree of distance, pain, or judgement from your church community. Essentially, you are just unable to “find your place”. This is prevalent in the Christian community, but can be extended to other religions.
Now that I am an adult I am beginning to heal from the church hurt that was inflicted on me as a child.
