Alright so look, is it just me or every time you buy something you see everybody with it? Like if you buy a new car it could be like a Mitsubishi. Now everybody has this car or if you buy a certain type of sneakers now everybody got these sneakers. Like what is that about? Like you feel like that's just the way the world works or is that like you know you just don't notice it until you have it. What y'all think that's about man?

It's called the Bader-Meinhof phenomenon and essentially what it is is let's say if we get a new material thing we learn a new word Something different and new that is brought to our attention our conscious, our mind scans our environment to spot that thing much quicker.

Other names for this is cognitive bias and frequency illusion. I don't know. I personally leave things up a little room, right, for mystery and other possibilities. If it is divinely orchestrated, then that's a possibility too. And of course science is going to say otherwise.

I think it could be because the same way that you saw it and decided you wanted to buy it could be the same way other people saw it. So it's probably just being well advertised. Now if you're, say like a sneaker head for example, and you go out of your way to like look up a sneaker then you know you're probably gonna get something a little bit more limited. But I guess the bottom line is that there's always going to be people that have some more interest to you.

Also, I wanted to add you're probably just more aware because you have that item Versus like if you never bought the item and at all you probably wouldn't really think about Like how many people have it like for example? I wanted to buy a Kia Soul at one point and now I see them everywhere I think the day I decided to buy them I always noticed them but before I didn't really pay any attention to Kia Soul's on the streets
