I think that's it. Now it has become a common term for whatever issues bother us and seem to crop up repeatedly. For me, the term doesn't give things any more weight, it just metaphorically describes that feeling of being oppressed or tripped up by factors that aren't immediately apparent in the moment.
Thanks for this!
