A term used to describe a person who mysteriously gets hotter the longer you look at her / him. Not to be confused with beer goggles, as no alcohol is involved with the TinaFey Effect.
The TinaFey Effect is a phenomenon where a food item that is mild to the taste at initial ingestion becomes progressively hotter. The effect is aptly named after the actress/writer/comedian of SNL and 30 Rock fame.
"Holy Tina Fey Effect, these blazin' wings weren't so bad when I bit into 'em, but now they are crushing me."

Fey Effect
When a comedian makes a negative political ad disguised as a comedy piece to encourage the average viewer to pay attention and be more open to receiving and considering the criticism embedded within the humor; specifically, the Fey Effect is when this bit has an important, lasting effect on real world politics.
It comes from Tina Fey's impression of Sarah Palin on Saturday Night Live, which negatively affected the public's opinion of Palin.
The Fey Effect is partly responsible for Palin'srelevancy declining significantly in the past 10 years.
