This.
It's annoying and at the tip of my tongue but just can't spit it out. Frustrating to say the least.
Mine is more like I know what I'm going to say right up until it's time to say that word. Then I blank. But I can picture it in my mind. I just can't say the word. It's so frustrating.
It's funny you say this. My wife and I just heard someone say this. And they were like a high ranking official. We both kind of looked at each other quizzically. Is this something that a certain part of the US says? And if so, where?
If you do a search, I'm sure you can find at least 10 threads I've started asking if any other people are having memory issues.
Its been our go to schtick for 20+ years here
And I get the shtick. But that's why it was odd when we saw someone use it in a non-shtick way. Which makes me think that the shtick is born from making fun of an actual region that says this.Its been our go to schtick for 20+ years here
I have no idea how/where we started saying it.
It started during a golf trip - where lets say there is water down the left. Guy then blasts it into the woods on the right. "I was ascared to hit in the water...."
I'll do this once or twice a week. I had a concussion four years ago with minor effects that lasted til 18 months ago.
I once asked an older gentleman how old he was. "Let me think. It changes every year."
Pretty sure my 11 or so have been affecting me the last 20 years....maybe. could also be nothing
I went to the grocery store 3 days in a row to buy a few items. 3 days in a row My wife said as I was walking out "Be sure to pick up a bottle of aspirin" Still no aspirin. I remembered the aspirin everyday as I was pulling into my garage.
That's kind of ridiculous. Why would she want three bottles of aspirin, and why couldn't you get them on the same day?
Weird. My dad is a vet also and he is able to get a new set, at no cost, every two years.
You might want to see a doctor about not taking any of that stuff, including the monster. Some of those things are psychoactive and/or work against each other. Find an actual treatment for what ails you, please.
this happened to me in the spring. except my head bounced off the concrete like a basketball. the strain from trying to prevent pulled a bunch of neck & shoulder muscles. it was tiring for me just to hold my head up for like 3 straight days.
How can a guy in his 50s tell if he's in good shape relative to the rest of the population? Is there some sort of universal fitness test somewhere?
Vodka for me gives the least.
As long as I can still outpace the rest of the old guys walking the mall I'm good to go.
I think they’re probably witchcraft at this point, but most haven’t been rigorously studied. Get your overall health in line first with a healthy diet, consistent exercise and sleep. Coffee may help, too.
Funny you mention this. Just last month, AARP Magazine (
) had an article that basically stated NONE of those "mind improvement" supplements work. None of them have been proven clinically to be even remotely effective. They basically said save your money. Take that for what it is worth of course.I did this in my 30s. Was convinced I had broken my hip. I can't imagine doing it now. T&Ps!!!
Yes, I order my Phenibut from them. I've kept to only using it about once a week, but am a big believer in it for a number of reasons. It will keep your focus in the moment, and you'll appreciate things you normally wouldn't.
Reading up on Phenibut ... it looks like it can put you to sleep. Is it mainly a sleep aid? If so, that must be why you keep the dosage low and infrequent. Superficially, seems to be the opposite of what a nootropics are meant to do.
The main thing it's used for is anxiety relief, although I've never used it for anxiety. It's never put me to sleep, although the one time I got the dosage up to about 1.5g I was MUCH more comfortable horizontal. I was close to rolling at that point. That being said it does mellow you out. You could say It blisses you out. The reason I keep the doses infrequent is everything I've read about possibility for addiction. I've never had an addictive personality, but to those who do, tread carefully.
Yup. Vodka and soda with a lime for me. It's like I'm rehydrating while I'm drinking. Rarely do I feel it the next day.
I've had so many doctors say this to me and I've heard other friends say the same thing. Maybe doctors should just shut the hell up.Recently, As I was getting reminded by everyone that I walk with a limp, i decided to see my doctor about it. I had also noticed some lack of flexibility in my hip so thought maybe they were related issues. My doctor suggests an xray and the results show moderately to severe arthritis in my right hip. He's pretty surprised that I would have this so young (54) but seems I do. Lucky me. Physio should help but there's no cure so in maybe 5 years I'll need a new hip.
Yay.
