The Dash Effect

The notion that culture is pervasive enough to individually redefine race.

(1) Dash was raised in Ethiopian projects on Fillmore St; despite being white, he more closely identifies with black culture, therefor exemplary of The Dash Effect.

(2) The Dash Effect is pronounced in Creedence Clearwater Survival’s ‘Bayou Country’ album wherein a bunch of San Franciscan boys perfectly emulate bayou blues.

The Geometry Dash Effect

When someone slowly gets worse and worse at something the longer a session goes on. This effect is mainly caused by the brain sabotaging the session because it grows tired of shit and wants to do something else.

Person 1: AGHHHH!!!

Person 2: You good?

Person 1: NO! I'm trying to beat Deadlocked, but every time I play, I just keep dying earlier!!! I hate this game!!!

Person 2: No you don't. You're just experiencing the Geometry Dash Effect. You gotta take a break to do something else.

Person 1: Yeah. Wanna make out?

Person 2: Hell yeah

*kissing ensues*

Commonly seen in TikTok comment sections in replies to lazy attempts at humor, overconfidentally incorrect statement, or an over-the-top comment or when someone completely misses the mark on something.

abandonware

n. software that is no longer sold or supported by the original publisher / developer, often found as free downloads on the internet because it cannot be obtained elsewhere. Not legal, but often seen as morally acceptable because the company that made it is no longer selling the title, nor releasing it as freeware, therefore abandonware is "keeping the game alive", so to speak.

Doom II is not abandonware because id still sells it, while The Incredible Machine is not sold, therefore is abandonware.

Foot prisons

Socks. Annoying, sweat-causing, non-barefoot enducing, everyday socks.

The first thing I do when I take off my shoes, is rip off the foot prisons I had to wear inside them. That's why I prefer flip flops, even in winter!
