Urinal Effect

The Urinal Effect is based upon an individual's inability to properly maintain control of their stream at a urinal. The Effect compounds upon itself as proceeding individuals are forced further away from the urinal as the lake of urine continues to grow beneath their feet. The theoretical size of the resulting lake is infinite, until properly sanitized by a janitor.

Urinal Effect

When a group of people are faced with a row of seats or something similar, those people will tend to sit in every other seat so as not to be creepy to the other people

Comes from the unspoken etiquette of men’s bathrooms that states that they can never use a urinal next to one that another man is using.
“I can’t sit down in any of these seats or I’ll be creepy! I’ve fallen victim to the Urinal Effect!”

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
