Any rapper who is stupid enough to gold plate their teeth.
Look at that shiny tooth nigga slingin over there.
The tendency to lose focus on the subject/objective due to a "shiny object" (aka distraction) caused by focusing too much attention on something indirectly related to that subject/objective. It could be an uknown word, a confusing analogy, a new cliche phrase you've never heard before (aka "corporate talk"), etc.
While sitting in a business meeting listening intently and taking notes on the subjectmatter at hand, a word is mentioned during the discussion that you don't know the meaning of, and automatically you start focusing on that word trying to figure it out while the discussion continues. Eventually you realize you got distracted, but a shitload of information has already been discussed. Although you're able to recall the topic, all the details have zoomed by and all you can do is hope that no one asks for your opinion regarding those details that you missed. Any attempts to restart your notetaking or get back up to speed are futile since whatever notes you take now are unable to be connected with where you left off due to that "shiny object."

When a guy or girl sees a "shiny penny" (a hot guy or girl) & all their attention is focused on them until they see a newer, shinier penny (a new hot guy or girl) & they completely forget about the first penny.
Girl 1: "Josh is so hot. I think I really like him."
*Hot stranger walks by*
Girl 1: "HOLY CRAP HE"S SO GORGEOUS!"
Girl 2: "What about Josh?"
Girl 1: "Huh? Who's Josh??"
Girl 2: "You totally have Shiny Penny Syndrome."

decidedly unusual people. not part of any subculture. not uber-fans of any band or comic or anything like that. will prefer to talk utter shite for hours on end than hold a rational conversation
SSD: what if we're all colour blind?
normal person: excuse me
SSD: well what if the sky's not blue. what if it's pink
normal person: i'm pretty sure the sky's blue
SSD: ever thought about getting your eyes tested? though what if your optician was colour blind too?
*at this point the normal person's brain starts melting*

To be driven toward shiny objects. Usually related to projects, in the sense that you won't finish one project before starting a new one.
Brent's shiny object syndrome prevents him from finishing any project before starting something new.
