The Chad Michael Murray Effect

The unhealed trauma within millennial women that makes them choose a white boy even when there are significantly better options.

This is because these women have grown up with stars like Chad Michael Murray, Brody Jenner, Zac Efron, etc., leading women to constantly feel the need to prove to themselves that they can pull the token white boy.

Gen Z girls, please see The Magcon Effect for further context on this phenomenon.

“Damn, Zac Efron is not even cute now, but I would still pick him because of the Chad Michael Murray Effect.”

grebo

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.

Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
