I know this isn't the word I'm looking for. I just needed something to grab y'all's attention and I forgot how to spell sex.

The situation is that you have been exposed to, say, a word that you have never seen before and all of a sudden it's showing up everywhere. Is there a word that means that sort of thing?

logosensitized?

No, really, I don't know what the word you're seeking is, Faldage. But it's the sort of logosensitization I go through regularly.

Synchronicity. Dunno if there's a word just for when the event is a word.
