A person being distracted or silly, as if their mind is on something else. Like a bird looking at a shiny stone.
Bill:Tim what's up.
Tim:.........
Bill:Tim, Hey wake up.
Tim: What?! Oh sorry, I had a ooh Shiny moment.
Bill:Pay attention next time.
Tim:.........
Bill:Tim, Hey wake up.
Tim: What?! Oh sorry, I had a ooh Shiny moment.
Bill:Pay attention next time.

A person that immediately becomes distracted by any shiny or glittery object while they were thinking, speaking, or doing something.
The passenger suddenly gets distracted from giving the driver directions by pointing and yelling, "ooh shiny" to the billboard they pass. This is ooh shiny syndrom.
