Tiger Woods effect 

This effect happens when professional golfers wake up in the morning and read the newspaper and find out that Tiger Woods is playing in the next tournament. After they hear this they all get worried and shit themselves.
Bob: "When I got onto the golf course today and saw Tiger the Tiger Woods effect hit me. Did hit you too?"

John: "Of course it did it is Tiger Woods."

The Tiger King Effect 

When someone gets rich or famous because they’re in the right place, at the right time. Similar to the tiger king documentary in 2020. It was released at the perfect time. Everyone watched it and discussed that documentary because we were all bored during lockdown and tired of conversing about the nonstop covid propaganda. That’s why it spread like wildfire.
“Did you hear about Kevin?”
Yeah, that guy has the tiger king effect. I’m sure he earned that $20,000 bonus but he was seriously at the best branch in the entire company. It was only a matter time before that region started booming…

Human Timer Effect 

The effect, when doing a lab, that the person holding the timer does not press the button at the exact time they are supposed to, screwing up the data ever so slightly. Abbreviated HTE
Our value for g would've been close to 9.8, but due to the Human Timer Effect (HTE) it was closer to 9.2.

A small piece of information. Derived from the word ken, used often in the scottish language and is synonymous with knowledge.
Person 1: "Hey I don't get this shit. How do you solve this problem?"
Person 2: "I got that one. Give me some kenlets on this assignment and I'll help you w/ that one."

I mean I guess bro

a word of expression to when you give up on comprehending someone's words of ignorance, stupidity, absurdity or are too exhausted to formulate a proper response.

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.
"actually... incorrect statement, hope this helps!"
"I mean I guess bro"

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.
