It's the Dunning Kreuger effect when one person mentions a [noun] and then all of a sudden it pops up everywhere, right? Someone else just told me I should get in on Monster Hunter today too.

Dunning-Kreuger is about incompetent people not realizing they're incompetent because of their incompetency. You're thinking of the Baader-Meinhof phenomenon. Close, but no cigar.

You and ref have no idea.

45 minutes ago, I was looking for the term "Baader-Meinhoff" during casual conversation, but could not recall the name(s). So I'm on the bus headed back toward my hotel, cruising Hubski, and yeah.

Thanks!

It's pretty damn fun.

If you do get in on it, shoot me a message and we can play some time!
