  • Irony at its finest

    Yesterday, I had a brainfart while trying to say the term "brainfart."




    Btw, a curious bit of trivia: the scientific term for when you know a word but can't recall it is "lethologica" (90+ % of people who just read that won't remember the term 10 minutes from now
    Aliterate : A person who is capable of reading but unwilling to do so.

    Lethologica? Cool. Hell, I remember the Swedish Chef's original name (Thom, by the way. Also, the 'current' orchestra leader, Sam, was originally going to be the position that Kermit took in the series... director, I guess?)
    Edit: Damn, I did forget... I knew there was a word on my way back from lunch... but couldn't put it all back together...

      I have lethologica frequently. Too many head injuries, or something.

        Sorry, read the title, couldn't help myself.

        Is there a name for forgetting a whole sentence instead of just a word?
