@jozeldenrust @etp @dryak @jap Not quite the same thing, though! "Cowboy BeBop at His Computer" is when someone gets something so hilariously wrong, it might as well be gibberish.

The Gell-Mann Amnesia Effect is when you (anyone in general, not just you in particular) see someone pull a Cowboy BeBop at his Computer, recognize it as such because you know the topic, and then _continue to trust them_ about other topics anyway.
