So I spilled some water on the floor, went out to the kitchen to get a paper towl, and while there, I ate an Orea, cleaned up some jam someone had spilled, drank another bottle of water, rifled through the fridge, found nothing, and came back.

Now I have to go back to get that paper towel...

I hate forgetting to do the thing you first set out to do

Must be a guy thing,we go out with one idea in our mind then we do something else,and we forget what we wanted to do first,but girls can put so much useless info in their minds and do everything in alphabetical order,what is their secret.

I once did something similar six times in a row.

No, what does suck is walking into a room, forgetting why you went there, returning to where you came from to "remember" what you were doing prior, remember what you walked into the other room to do to begin with, repeat process for about 15 minutes. I'm kinda known for this one and it's a source of jokes because of how often I do it. (my dad is 77, and I am the one at 19 who has a good number of the mental issues of people older than he is, yet he doesn't...)

Another sucky one: walking up to a door, thinking you opened it, then proceed to slam into the closed door.

I routinely go to turn lights on in rooms where the lights are already on. Habit, I suppose.

Yeah, I hate walking into a room, turning on the light, standing in the doorway like a jackass trying to remember what you were going to do, and then giving up and deciding to grab some Doritos.

All that only to remember what you were going to do ten minutes later.

I've got the same problem. Now picture having that problem and being a delivery driver.

I once received a phone call from my sister. She wanted to talk to my brother. I put her on hold and went to the basement. Upon reaching the basement I forgot why I was in the basement and proceeded to use the computer. Five minutes later she calls again but on my brother's cell wondering why he didn't pick up the phone.

Almost? I'm always finding the butter in the microwave or empty cups in the refrigerator. I also do things like picking up the toothbrush when I want to shave or bringing the toilet paper with me when I leave the bathroom or trying to unlock the house door with the car remote thing or putting something into the oven and coming back a half hour later to find theat I never turned the oven on. Finding myself in a room with no idea why I'm there is very normal for me.

The worst thing we did at my home is,we cooked fries in the oven and when they were done we found melted plastic in them,we forgot a spatula in the oven.

Sometimes when I get a change of clothes ready I'll grab socks instead of underwear (they're kept in the same drawer).

I freeze right in the middle of sentences a LOT. This one below happened to me about a week ago.

"I drove over here in my uh, uhhhh (10 seconds later) car."

You`ve gone to the William Shatner school of communication.

I get stuck in the middle of conversation too.

One thing I really do a lot , is bring left overs home in my car, only to forget them. Next morning I get in the car and its like......sniff...snifff....ah fuck.

I always construct very articulate sentences when i begin them, but then i move onto what they're gonna reply with and make a ersponse to that, but then i forget where i was at the beginning so end up saying "Cool. That looked SO like that...er......fuck....i don't remember how i was going to end this".

Pisses me off.

LOL, with me, I think so fast that by the time I'm halfway through the first word, I'm already at the next sentence, so my words always come out a huge jumble half a second after I start. And then people wonder why I don't like talking...

I can picture all of you guys having a conversation. It would be hilariously as hell.

BTW, I do have the same problem.
