I still say that, knowing fully damn well that it probably was important and I going to feel like shit later for forgetting.

I legit forgot my roommate’s name in college while he was right in front of me.
Forgot the name of my partner of 5 months, it’s rough…
“…Mulva?”
The good news is you can just call them “honey” and they’ll never know!
Charlie Sheen, the neurotypical standard.
Me when not on medication
All is well, it was only:
Nothing wounds me more than people saying if I cared I’d remember
Next time someone says that, respond with “wow, so fuck anyone with brain issues that keep them from forming memories the same way you do, right? Guess grandpa Rick doesn’t care about my family since his accident, huh.”
you having a grandpa Rick, or family to speak of, is irrelevant. The point is, it forces them to confront the fact that there are many reasons someone might forget a thing. They’ll probably still be shift about it, but at least when they’ve unbunched their loads, they might think twice before immediately concluding the other person sucks for forgetting a thing.
Maybe I’m being optimistic with that, but I don’t appreciate when people try to assign my motives to me, instead of understanding my own, and get confrontational when that happens.
Getting home at midnight and realising I haven’t eaten and have no food in…
Looking in the oven and seeing yesterday’s food is still in there
I guess it’s fasting day then.
Third day in a row, let’s freaking go. It’s for science at this point
That’s when you eat chips. Or biscuits. Or bread sticks dipped in raw pasta sauce.
I have none of these things.
The convenience closes at 11:59.
I guess I’ll starve until morning.
You’re just intermittent fasting
“I forget everything so I guess nothing’s important?”
“Well, in the grand scheme of things…”
I also like to go with “Cosmically, nothing we ever do will amount to more than the life of a fly, so the end result is the same.”
It doesn’t go over well…
Absurdism says you just don’t care and do your stuff anyway
“Wow in all my decades on this planet I’ve never heard that before and you saying it just now has completely solved the problem! It’s just a lack of perspective! Wow that was so easy! So I guess you forgot about your wedding anniversary last week because it wasn’t important?”
Seriously though - because people just expect me to forget things I get absolutely dog piled if I forget even the smallest thing, but when other people forget things they also remind me that I forget things all the time and give me the “it’s important do so remember” nonsense. It drives me crazy.
One of my friends apparently organized a hang out for all of us this weekend, two weeks ago, but I forgot about it and he got mad
That same friend asked me if I wanted to go to a concert at least twice in the couple of hours we were hanging out
Ok, MICHAEL, I see how it is!
I went to my boss to ask for some time off and she reminded me that I had already requested the same days off weeks ago, been approved, talked about plans, then forgotten all of it.
