A lot of this phenomenon is the reason why recency-bias is so heavily manipulated by marketers. The tendency for you to unconsciously attach a feeling to something you saw recently without ever consciously having had a thought about that thing (such as that chocolate bar you saw on the end of the aisle).
People have a big ole mood about something and then attach it to something else without really understanding the mechanics of how they associated the two. Sometimes it's literally just being tired that makes them doomerish like this, and then they end up coming to all kinds of weird conclusions about the mood they're having.
Yeah kinda.

Is this why Sartre regularly practiced thinking about the world as if each facet of it was a novel new concept?
