A yоung prоfessiоnаl аttends а research conference and second guesses himself on whether or not to pack his swim trunks.  His internal dialogue goes back and forth between, "I will probably be so busy that I won't even have time to check out the pool," and "But what if I do have the opportunity to have some fun while I'm there?"  He ultimately decides not to bring his swim trunks.  When he arrives, he discovers that there is a Pool Party Social, and sees all of his colleagues and friends in the hotel lobby getting ready to go.  When he smacks his forehead and proclaims, "I should have known seen that coming!", what social phenomenon is he holding himself to?
