The Vinny Raffa Effect
The Vinny Raffa Effect occurs after repetitive sightings of a repeated visual stimulus, often a sticker or grafitti. As a child I used to often see this one sticker with a mysterious icon - Vinny Raffa. This led me to ask the question, "who is Vinny Raffa?" As I grew up I saw more and more of these stickers throughout my lifetime and always wondered with great fascination what they meant and how they got there. However when I got older I eventually learned the true identity of the man on the sticker and with this discovery, much of my interest was lost. The Vinny Raffa Effect occurs when you lose interest in something after discovering too much about it.
I'm not sure if this is an example of The Vinny Raffa Effect but, I just found out who made all of these mysterious cards we've been seeing everywhere and now I don't care.

rafael correa
A Socialist dictator of the Republic of Ecuador who is responsible for 55% unemployment, debt that is more than triple the amount of the population, the Petroleum barrel selling at 20 USD, the selling of a percentage of the Amazon rainforest for failure to pay a debt of China because he sells and pays his party more than what is constitutional, changes the constitution for his favor, took out the judges of the country and placed them with judges who are unqualified but a part of his party, currently has Galapagos on hold for China if taxes and debt dates aren't met. This is only the basic aside from the social injustices such as imprisoning and spending 300k USD every weekend to humiliate underaged children of the opposition and asks his followers to attack them on social media.

Rafaela
Rafaela is always a really beautiful, strong woman. She is really smart but also one of the funniest and the most crazy person you will ever know. Rafaela is the creative one in her friends group and when it comes to art it seems like she can do anything. When Rafaela walks into a room EVERYBODY stares at her. And even through she has that kind of beauty no one ever could imitate, she is really insecure and always worries what others will think about her. Rafaela also is the most loyal person on earth and would never ever cheat on you or lie to you. She protects her friends and family with all that she has but has sometimes trouble with expressing her feelings. Rafaela is a woman that loves to flirt more than anything else and doesn't give away her heart very easily but if she does better take care of it because that does not happen often. If you know a Rafaela keep her close and she'll always be there for you.

pod person
A person pretending to be something they aren't, or an impostor. This is inferred because of the old alien movies where alien pods appear on earth and the "pod people" dispose of the humans and slowly reproduce the bodies, pretending to be humans.
The pod person was pretending to be my father, but I knew that he was an alien when he acted differently than my father ever would have.

dead drop
A dead drop is a location used to secretly pass items between two people, without requiring them to meet.
Spies have been known to use dead drops, using various techniques to hide the items and to signal that the drop has been made. Drug dealers use this as well.
A common place is to duct tape the item to the underside of a toilet cover in a public restroom.
A signal is sometimes used as well to indicate there is something to pickup, like a pile of stones in a certain formation. After checking the drop the signal is removed.

No Surprises Wedding
A "No Surprises Wedding," or NSW, is a wedding invitation designation that tells attendees that there can be no unplanned announcements, engagements, events or speeches at the wedding - all actions must be pre-approved by the couple.
