Eiffel's association with the Statue of Liberty is well-founded


* Gustav Eiffel was primarily a structural engineer yet he supplied his name to the {{Eiffel Tower|Effect}}, even if the iconic design of the monument was the work of two employees for his firm, Maurice Koechlin and Émile Nouguier, who let's face it you just heard about them on this page. Eiffel is also associated with the Art/StatueOfLiberty, even if the designer of the statue was the sculptor Frederic-Auguste Bartholdi. Eiffel is a genius and innovator in his field of course, but the people who created the look of his famous works end up being overshadowed by him.

* The New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox at Creator/{{ESPN}}. ''Baseball Tonight'' should be renamed ''The Yankees and Red Sox Show''.

* The New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox at Creator/{{ESPN}}. ''Baseball Tonight'' should be renamed ''The Yankees and Red Sox Show''. (This is probably an effect of ESPN's headquarters being in Bristol, Connecticut, right where the traditional territories of Yankee fans and Red Sox fans meet up.)

Added DiffLines:

* ''WebVideo/OneyPlays'': The "Best Of" compilation videos that don't focus on a specific game or host tend to prominently feature Zach in the thumbnail, regardless of how many clips in the compilation actually feature him, due to him being the most popular member of the channel. Most of them will at least feature Chris along with him, but the "Best of Telling Stories" compilation, which ''only'' features Zach in the foreground of the thumbnail, is the second most viewed video on the channel...behind the "Best of Zach" compilation.[[note]]Not counting the "dentist robot" clip, because it's not original content.[[/note]]

** UsefulNotes/RonaldReagan: Practically every modern Republican politician will cite his name as someone who inspired them in some way -- 'Reagan made me a Republican' is very much a full-swing CatchPhrase to the right wing. Nevertheless, Ronald Reagan's fans will attribute popular conservative policies to him even if he had little or nothing to do with them, and likewise, he provides convenient scapegoat excuses for unpopular policies he personally implemented. Conservative radio shows and Fox News portray him a messiah for the American conservative workingman, to the point where the more unhinged among them claim he singlehandedly won the UsefulNotes/ColdWar. 'What would Ronnie do?' is constantly applied to every current issue in Washington, even if that problem is something Ronnie had absolutely zero interest in or did not exist in his time. It even extends to the nominal left wing, as this hero worship of Reagan created a bloc of conservative Democrats (known as Blue Dogs) who originated as... Democrats who voted for/supported Reagan. This even goes far enough to whitewash whatever flaws the man himself had, as well as ignore policies he implemented and/or endorsed that no longer reflect the GOP's current agenda.[[note]](Providing amnesty to undocumented immigrants, supporting gun control, a twice-married man who legalized abortion in California when he was Governor of the state despite the glowing endorsement from the Christian Right, taking any advice from Democrats, etc.)[[/note]] On the other hand there has been a backlash among people farther to the left that point out true or imagined flaws of Reagan making him into a boogeyman who single-handedly - and deliberately - destroyed the American Middle Class, while being corrupt, committing war crimes and being too riddled by dementia and other ills of old age to find his pants ''while he was supposedly master-minding his evil master-plan'' even though the good as well as the bad was not Reagan's doing alone.

* In ''[[{{Literature/Mabinogion}} Culhwch and Olwen]]'', Gawain is assigned by King Arthur as Culhwch's companion, but takes no part in the adventure which is mentioned. As such, there is a theory that he was, indeed, written in later due to his fame.

* This can happen with Website/{{YouTube}}'s "related videos" service. Most times the "recommended for you" video will be something you watched ages ago and don't care to revisit. This can be rather annoying if you watched one [=YouTuber's=] video out of curiosity and the site keeps trying to get you to watch it again even though you don't have any interest in said [=YouTuber's=] videos whatsoever. It can also base recommendations off of a video that you clicked ''by accident'' a while ago, or repeatedly recommend the same {{shipping}} video for months at a time because you watched a few non-shipping videos related to the fandom. Or, more annoyingly, you watch a political video that's anti-X, and suddenly your "related videos" feed includes mostly pro-X videos, because the pro-X video producers use similar tags and get more views. This might be less of a problem now that YouTube has installed a "not interested" button in a dropdown menu for each item. Clicking it immediately hides the item from view and, no doubt, will tweak the site's algorithms to avoid it and others like it in the future.
