evangelion theme suddenly fills all our heads

Each time looking for it for at least 10 minutes, so this time I'm going to put it at the logical place.

Time passes...

Looking for hours at the four logical places I could've put it, then giving up. Coming across it a week later and thinking "well that IS a logical place for it to be"

Thank god this is one thing I don’t really have an issue with. I grew up watching my dad constantly lose and forget literally everything important all the time, which I think trained me to always keep track of shit. On the bad side, on the 1/100 times I genuinely have no clue where something is, and it’s not in the spot I thought it was, I get extra upset

That's fine when you live alone, but it is going to make relationships difficult. Oof, and you will murder any children you have before they reach 3 years old.

Looked for a thing yesterday evening for 20 minutes. It was on the table in plain sight...

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 10 hours ago

Wow, I'm glad that I'm not the only one, and I (probably) don't have a brain tumor.

[–] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 2 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

All the time. I took 15mg of Adderall at midnight last night with the intention to clean the house. I slept for 5 hours. This is supposed to help this kind of shit. What the fuck.

If you have ADHD, it's not uncommon simulants have a somewhat calming effect. Just FYI.

[–] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago

I do have ADHD. I was diagnosed less than two months ago at age 41. It was a hell of a fight to get diagnosed.

And yet then I can remember where some obscure thing is in the middle of a random pile I haven't touched in 4 months

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 8 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Those moments are the best.

You lost something so you go looking for it and you can't find it so you give up. Three months go by and you forgot about the thing and it suddenly appears in front of you but you don't need it anymore so you put it away. A month goes by and now you need it again but it's again hopelessly lost and can't be found.

And the worst part is that you can picture the thing in its place in your head because you just walked past it every day for three months, semi-consciously clocking its location. But now that you need it, it has vanished.

My wife always just gets mad and implies that I (the primary cleaner of the house) moved or misplaced her perpetually lost items, and 10/10 times she figures out that it was indeed her own goddamn self who misplaced said thing. Truly, this has happened almost weekly for well over a decade and I swear it has never been me.

I don't even get annoyed anymore. I find immediate satisfaction in knowing she's eventually going to realize she played herself.

[–] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 4 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

I am the wife in this scenario. Although I really suspect she does throw shit out without consulting me.

[–] Stalinwolf@lemmy.ca 3 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

Do you also leave a mix of both dirty and "clean" clothes laying about on the bathroom/bedroom floor all week, and then get irritated when your partner eventually picks them up and puts them in the dirty laundry hamper? 😅

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 1 points 13 minutes ago

They're sorting piles!

[–] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 2 points 9 hours ago

Hell no, I leave my mix of dirty and clean clothes on the "dining" room table like a normal person.

I am in this diagram and I don't like it.

Wondering if I remembered to bring my car key while driving

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 10 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

On more than one occasion I've completely lost my phone, sometimes for an hour or two because it was sitting on a black surface on my desk, in the kitchen or in my bedroom.

[–] asteriskeverything@lemmy.world 6 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

I refuse to get dark cases for this reason! I have too much black
