fah effect

A phenomenon when the world seems to work against you and your harmless actions end up backfiring. Like when you point out something cool and underrated, and suddenly everyone notices it—prices go up, it sells out, or it changes in a way that ruins it for you. You didn’t mean to cause the hype, but now you regret ever saying anything.
You post about a cheap, overlooked collectible—now it’s trendy and triple the price. Classic Fah Effect.
