as a word, suddenly it's just a bunch of unrelated sounds. It amused me but I never shared it with anyone, and, turns out, there's even a term for it (and a lot of research). It's one of those things that happen to many people but rarely talked about; post-nasal drip and blue field entoptic phenomenon also come to mind.
