Best thing to do in that scenario, I've found: eat something. It's where all the food is, and that might have been the reason you actually went in there.

I sometimes have a weird feeling that I'm not a 19th century lieutenant colonel. It passes, though.

I do a little run-through of the systems. Hungry? No. Thirsty? No. Need a utensil to eat something you already have? No. Then I do a slow 360 to see if anything sparks a memory. Sometimes it does. Otherwise I just retreat in shame.

Of course, I remember what I wanted about 0.00042 seconds after sitting down again, but by that time I just say, "Fuck it. I'm not getting up again just for that."

Quirks? Does being aggressively confrontational to morons who won't shut up in cinemas count as a quirk?

Isn't that utterly normal? Everyone in our family does that from time to time - walks into a room, and then asks: "Does anyone know why I came here?" Sometimes one may even get a good guess from one of the others, if they have been listening or observing (a big if, but anyway).

"The internet is made of people. People matter. This includes you. Stop trying to sell everything about yourself to everyone. Don’t just hammer away and repeat and talk at people—talk TO people. It’s organic. Make stuff for the internet that matters to you, even if it seems stupid. Do it because it’s good and feels important. Put up more cat pictures. Make more songs. Show your doodles. Give things away and take things that are free." - Maureen J

I sometimes burn down entire Japanese cities and don't remember why.

No, but I once worked for five minutes to get into a car that I had locked my keys in. The issue was resolved with Brenda pointed out that the other door was unlocked.

I thought it was because they were in the way when you needed to take a walk and let out a few belches.
