Sorry, I was coming up with a reply for the last thing you said.
When you have to rewind the audio book 8 times because you forgot to listen…
This is usually the source of people’s annoyance with me. I also struggle to comprehend what people say half the time.
Convo I had last night
Friend: “The the the the the… thing! That’s right, the thing.”
Me: “Can you say that again? You took too long to get to the point and now I don’t remember the rest of the statement.”
Friend: “Hey fuck you man!”
Me: “No unironically, I don’t remember”
Friend: “Oh, yeah sure <the previous statement, without delays>”the things?
My wife could write a book about this. Specifically about me doing it.
Been married 25 years. I’m sure mine could too. It’s a daily annoyance to her.
Story of my life. But my wife’s been dealing with it for 38 years.
