Semantic satiation
for me, it’s “taco bell.” “taco bell taco bell taco bell taco bell taco bell taco bell taco bell taco bell taco bell taco bell taco bell taco bell taco bell taco bell taco bell taco bell taco bell taco bell taco bell taco bell…”Semantic satiation is a cognitive neuroscience phenomenon in which repetition causes a word or phrase to temporarily lose meaning for the listener, who can only process the speech as repeated meaningless sounds. For example, say: “smile smile smile smile smile smile smile smile smile smile smile smile smile smile….”.
