This is a effect called “Frequency illusion”
The frequency illusion (also known as the Baader–Meinhof phenomenon) is a cognitive bias in which a person notices a specific concept, word, or product more frequently after recently becoming aware of it
No, it’s because it stay in cache, and when the simulation is overloaded, it directly takes an asset already resident in cache instead of loading a new one. Like the car in GTA3: https://x.com/ObbeVermeij/status/1790730197286752530?ref=libertycity.net

Now go watch the “cripple fight” episode of South Park for a fun treat!

I felt that way about watching the human centipede which I did by total accident. It is constantly being referenced and I would never have understood any of it. I literally heard a refence to it in the past couple of days.

Thanks, it’s stuck in my head now.
Wir fahr-fahr-fahr’n auf der Autobahn …
Rowdy Roddy Piper was great in that movie!
