Hi all,
I posted this in my external blog, but I'd love to hear everyone's thoughts about it:

TLDR: The "Sushi Effect" is presented as irritation that we're not sharing "firsts" with our partners, and as a prompt to embrace and enjoy change if it means that there's a positive outcome in the end. I instead see it as the "Scooby Doo Effect", where one partner (usually the established partner) has their suggestions continually rejected, while a new partner's identical suggestions are humored or agreed with. Not so much about wanting to be the "first" as it is wanting to have your suggestions considered without being rejected outright.
Opinions? I feel like Mike Meyers in "Coffee Talk". Discuss!
