Have you ever found yourself in the middle of a sentence and forget why you went in there?
Have you ever found yourself in the middle of a sentence and forget why you went in there?
Oh good, glad I am not the only one. I think it happens when your brain has moved faster than what is coming out of your mouth.
Always
That's probably what assures Ghislaine Maxwell a pardon
All. The. Time.
Of course.
Yes, today I said...
In front of the live tv cameras.Twice. First time i just made up new lyrics on the spot. Second was an interview so i just told them i was jet lagged and to start again because i need to impress the viewers. Everyone laughed and that was the end of it. Got teased for the lyrics at the time.
Well … if I’m being truthful.
yes even worse walked home and left car in parking lot
I have ADHD. It's a risk every time I open my mouth. At least when I do it in writing I can go back and see where the parentheticals led me astray, and then pick up the thread (and delete everything in parentheses or between em-dashes).
All the…. wait, why did I come in here?
Quite often. Got a doctor's note for life though! #Epilepsy Forever grateful, #ObamaCare
Well to be perfectly honest, in my humble opinion, of course without offending anyone who thinks differently from my point of view, but also by looking into this matter in a different perspective and I honestly believe that I completely forgot what I was going to say.
This is how I’m going to answer my teenage kids from now on.
The same thing happened to me yesterd..........
And then I remember that stupid manslaughter charge. Fuck.
I was headed to Sprouts and literally had to pull over because I forgot where I was going 😒
all the time
The more I think about this the more I . . . . I’m sorry, what?
👋
All the time these days. We shall overcome.
Yes, I once
The only reason I
But where did I put my keys?
Refrigerator?
I used to work with a guy who'd do his shopping lunchtime & leave it in the company fridge - along with his car keys. He couldn't go home without the keys & thus he'd remember the shopping when he went to collect the keys...
Constantly. ADHD chaos goblin brain.
I often walk into a room and say “what the hell am I doing”.
That's ok. If you're over 65, it's called a 'senior moment.'
I call doorways magic portals that sometimes memory erasers
I've become the Fruitcake Lady. 😆
Yes: But I am in the Middle of Resistance and I know why I am here: Please stop repeating their Narratives ( Like The Illegal) National Sales Tax being called a Tariff, the use Of IT's Image gives It Power: IT's name gives It power.. Please read this and pass it on. bsky.app/profile/ogre...
Every f-ing day of my life lol
Oh, yes!
I can find my way to the end of a sentence. I often get lost in paragraphs though. Once spent a week trapped in a page. I eventually found the plot and made my way out. It wasn’t pretty cutting that meandering path out, and I pity and reader trying to follow my trail.
Yes, it's known as the "doorway effect." Walking through a doorway creates a mental boundary that causes our brains to compartmentalize tasks, leading to forgetfulness about what we intended to do. This occurs because the brain refreshes its memory context when transitioning between
different environments, making it harder to recall previous intentions. It happens to me all the time, unless I'm being very mindful about my intentions.
that's called Tuesday..... 🤣
Maybe 20 times a day
All day, every day.
It is flat out dangerous. Because of the pause, I slipped on those tiny marbles called ellipses and busted my asterisk.
Many a time I've asked myself in the middle of a sentence "where am I going with this thought?" It's just wonderful growing old.
😂😂😂
All. The. Time.
Have you read The God of Small Things by Arundhati Roy? Her sentences end in a place never imagined at the beginning but make perfect lyrical sense.
This is a constant for my aging ADHD brain. I hate it.
More and more often, as time goes on. 🎶 What a drag it is getting old 🎶
Uh oh...
All the time.
Luckily my friends and I finish for each other when we can.
Often. 🤪
Everyday 🥸
Siiiiigh…I started telling a story. There was a point. It tied in, bc I speak in tangentials. I completely forgot how it was related. And what we were talking about. I kept going for a couple more sentences but…I just couldn’t get there… Happens more and more lately. I think we’re all overwhelmed.
All of the
I’ve lost count of the number of times i’ve found myself at the end of a sentence and thought, why the f did i say that?!
It always depends on which cluster fuck you were trying to tag into another cluster fuck. Let's just call in #ClusterFuckConfusion
#BlueCrew Check out the “We Do Not Care” movement & following on TikTok & IG & hopefully coming over to #Bluesky soon. It’s hilarious 😂. IMO, it’s applicable to men, too.
Already have.
I just scrolled over the name on bsky. It’s not that… it’s this one ⬇️🙂
Every day.
Story of my life.
Ughh
Not since
That's Trumps MO!
That’s the “California” in your California sober 🤣
Only on days that end with a “y”.
Not often, but I have found myself halfway through a bag of chips and questioned my life choices
Happens to me when the voices in my head get into a donnybrook over why I’ve decided to look for that screwdriver in the junk drawer
Yes.
All. The. Time. 🙄🙄
The jailers remind me.
How every argument with my wife ends.
Yes and it gets worse. Too often lately I can't think of the word I want to use to describe something.
Is this an RFK Jr senior test?
Don't worry, you can finish it tomorrow when you remember.
At 75 every freaking day now!
You made it to your 70s before *this* became normal?🖤 I'm so jealous.
I thought I was too old to be shocked but every day there is another WTF moment😱
All the time! Was this in writing a sentence or speaking it? ADHD, my brain moves faster than my mouth & my RAM is the equivalent of a Commodore 64. So, while my mouth is finishing up the thing I was trying to say, the buffer filled & my brain moved on to something else. But, there was a gap…
In the buffer, the entire message didn’t load get loaded, so when my mouth reaches the end, I don’t know where it was going or what I was going to say. Usually, that was 100 thoughts ago & I can’t backtrack that far.
Yes, but they would not release me before the minimum mandated time.
Noun. Verb. Direct object. Indirect object. On those days when you can’t be yourself, be Prince.
😬😵💫😬
Happens when you can’t type as fast as you think. One left mental turn and your fingers are like, “say whut!”
Squirrel.
Never 🙃😆
Only when making off the cuff public remarks.
Then how do you know it's the middle of the sentence?
yes, that's a ZEN moment, cherish it. You may never be that high again.
It’s called information overload and… what else was I gonna say?
Menopause is fun isn’t it? When do I get off this ride? It’s 6 years now. Wtf!!
When I do, I say, "Whelp, that train of thought just derailed!"
Yeah but when I do it, I don't pretend it was intentional and call it "The Weave." 🤦♀️🤷♀️😖
It's more that I forget where I'm going with it, tbh. I blame perimenopause.
Everyday?
Yet to be tried and found guilty, so no sentence yet. But I’m pretty sure I’d remember. 😏
I can’t read this because there is freezing cold air blowing in my face with a bunch of boxes of food in front of me and I have no idea how I got here when I just needed a trash bag.
At least you remembered why you went into the room. One up on me.
I feel ya …
Men-o-pause.
Where? Who are you, why is it getting hot & how did we get in this handbasket?
😂
Daily
Yeah, except the sentence is my life.
Menobrain. So all the time.
Four times in the last two days
Welcome to my world. 😩
All the time 🤣
Welcome to my world!
Only most sentences.
Perimenopause
Every damn day.
That and the kitchen
All the time, and it sucks because I have such important things to say! lol
Quit smokin that rope.🤣
Only after work dark in the water to the I called more not to even find a non unfailing red and wood like shining placed auger.
Yes.
I keep thinking about how I ended up in this lifetime and forgot how I ended up here. Or maybe I wish I did.
I'm 59 & post menopausal. Yes. Now where's my phone?
All the time. During a podcast interview, I had to ask the host what his question was again. I get sidetracked OR brain fart.
Hourly. Usually, when arguing with a microorganism.
Yep! And it’s so frustrating.
Unfortunately.
That usually means it's time for me to eat. 😊
Menopause...every second sentence...
To what age group are you directing this question?
All. The. Time.
Devil's lettuce
Don't you hate when that
😂 at least 3-4 times a week.
I tend to... wait ✋🏻! What was I about to say, again? 🤔
Ahh, the vagaries of a stressed out brain. Happens all the time 🤣
Girlfriend just wait until you get to be my age, 69 , and ask yourself that question then. I could explain but some things are better left unsaid. ✌️♥️🌹
Si.
often
Oh dear. YES
At 67, quite often.
Damn. And I thought 66 was rough.
Usually during job interviews, both as the interviewer and the interviewee.
I find myself in the middle of a sentence trying to find my phone ALL THE TIME. Psh - Oh! There you are!
That’s never happened to . . . spaghetti for dinner.
🤣
Reading the sentence or writing the sentence? I can honestly say that. . . eh.... Oh yeah... I have done both!
All the ti….
Most every day
Yes, But It's Usually Coming Out Of My Wife's Mouth....
Apparently, Ms. Maxwell has.
All the time.
Welcome to a moment in the life of this ADHD woman! It's what I call my WIB (Woman In Black) moments
No, I don't have a dysfunctional trump thought process.
Yup. And I say in mid sentence, I have no idea where I'm going with this so I'll just get back with you later.
Yup!
like: a prison sentence?
🤣🤣 sadly yes!
Daily
Well, I can say this
More and more everyday.
That reminds me of
Wut? 😎✌️❤️💙
It gets worse y’all. Just sayin
5-25ish times a day. Getting worse. My brain is just overloaded. As are many others’ <3
Have I???
More of that incoming: www.bbc.com/future/artic...
“Triple H” - Donald ….:::looks around (he’s right next to him.)
Welcome to level 70.
No that never... uh... yeah. Whatever
Unfortunately, yes
No, but I bet Trump has that issue all day long.
Hourly, at least.
Yes, daily.
And so it begins…
It’s a real psychological phenomenon. When you walk through a door, God opens a window.
I seriously need to avoid doors 😞
All-the-time!!! 🤪
All the time!
🙋🏽♀️ me, that’s me ✌🏽
I speak German. It's like a national sport. We write such long sentences that it's inevitable to get lost along the way
That’s why I hate people interrupting me. I totally lose my train of thought.
It happened earlier today. And now I have forgotten what I was talking about when it happened.
I’ve been trying to remember for two days why I wanted to go to the hardware store. Let me know if you figure it out.
Way more often than I would like…
When there’s indica involved, it can happen. 😞
Yes, it happens.
No
Are you talking about a prison sentence?
Yes! And I can report that weed doesn’t help there… 🤣
Tell me you're over 50 without telling me you're over 50.
😹😹😹
Far too often.
🥰🌹💙
More and more as I get older.
By “why You went in there” is more about me entering a room and trying to remember why
More and more every day
More than I'd like to admit
Hahahahaha - yikes - yep. I also go prowling around my laptop, intent on some task…..and can’t remember wtf it was!
Everyday
Too frequently.
Many, many times.
It is a rare day when I don’t
That’s when I say, “my train of thought derailed just before the station.”🤷🏼♀️🤣
Often.
Only on days that end with a “y.”
It happens more frequently than I care to admit
