My Google-fu is strong: that would be the Baader-Meinhof Phenomenon. I had no idea such a term existed, but given how the universe loves an in-joke I'll probably start seeing it all over the place now.

Sad fact: that term is absent from the Descriptionary (3rd edition), the first place I looked. Sadder fact and blatant B-MP baiting attempt: so is 'chiasmus'. - ZM
