Oh dude! That explains so much!
:eek:

I know right?! I cannot imagine the number of times I've opened the refrigerator door, forgot what food item I was looking for, only to close it... and a few moments later open it and I just end up staring in a quizzical manner at the contents.

There must be some kind of inter-universal (thinking parallel here) portal bond located in my fridge. Or maybe even a wormhole?

Think I can harvest this?

If that's the case, the MiB have an entire squadron dedicated to following me. I especially hate it when I forget what I was doing in the time it takes to stand up from a chair and turn to walk away.

Damn lossy temporal compression schemes.

Relevant.

reminds me of the actual story;)
http://digitaljournal.com/article/314753
"Going from one room to another seems to magically erase memory. Most of us have forgotten what we wanted to do when we go from one room to another.
A Notre Dame psychologist, studying why it happens, says doorways are “event erasers”, explaining the phenomenon.
University of Notre Dame Psychology Professor Gabriel Radvansky says when we go from one room to another to perform a task, memory is erased “…because our thought becomes “compartmentalized........""

You know, I can usually walk back to where I started, maybe walk around a little bit, let my brain throw around a few insanely random thought associations, and typically remember what I originally thought.

It's particularly terrible when you go through that, walk out the original room again to return to the place where you are pretty sure you are supposed to be looking for something... but end up just standing there clueless as I yet again completely forget.
When I can do this three times in a row (thankfully rare), I usually end up in the strangest battleground between hilarity and anger. Kind of like a demented chuckle...
