There’s actually a scientific reason for forgetting why you entered a room, called the doorway effect ! I heard Brian Cox talk about it the other day 🤯🤯 I can’t stand limp handshakes, makes me feel queasy 😂
See, I am impressed when people remember that stuff. You'd impress me.
I never forget a face, myself, but I am awful with names. I'm one of those people that has to repeat it awkwardly several times and may or may not (but definitely do) keep notes in my phone as reminders of names.
What's interesting is that I'm actually pretty bad at faces and details, but I do pretty well with style of dress, hair, if they have nice nails and other random things. Shoes and jackets. The thing about names is that I'm really bad at hearing people say it, and sometimes I'm not sure and go with the whole, 'hey man/dude/bro/generic title' more often than not... but the second I connect them to their email they're in the vault for life. And what they ate for lunch from that one time we were sitting next to each other.

Hahahahaa 💯 percent here for the dancing frogs, the people who don't remember you and all the fuckerish loonery in between.
