novelty blindness

Definition

The temporary cognitive impairment that causes you to declare something 'the best/worst ever' simply because you just discovered it and your brain hasn't adjusted to the novelty yet. It's the psychological phenomenon behind every 'this changed my life' review written within 24 hours of purchase.

Example Usage

Give it a week before you declare it your favorite album of all time—you're clearly suffering from novelty blindness right now.

TWIMC

If you're ever in doubt, choose to write out "to whom it may concern" rather than using TWIMC. For example, if you're composing an email to a company that you're interested in partnering with, it's better to write out "to whom it may concern," rather than risk being misunderstood (or worse, rejected for being too informal).
