I have a shitty memory, but for some reason, my brain has retained the lyrics to Hot Cross Buns, which I learned in 3rd grade when I played the clarinet.

Defunctland ruined my marriage because there was this episode about a park where one of the attractions was sorta bumper cars with military tanks and someone would be setting tennis balls on fire and literally shooting them at the tanks somehow and I said that can't be true because if it was possible to shoot a flaming tennis ball then it would also be possible to shoot a flaming arrow and we just had this 3 hour argument a week ago about how according to you the whole idea of flaming arrows was 100% proven impossible by Mythbusters and then my partner was like no obviously the tennis balls are different, they got fired a lot slower than arrows and the problem with arrows was the speed would put the fire out like blowing a candle. and then i was like well then flaming arrows are totally possible you would just have to make a bow that shoots them slower, and my partner said wouldn't work you couldn't do that, and I said literally every child in the 1980s independently invented the bow and arrow with a stick and rubber band and our very first-try prototype wouldve shot an arrow slower than those damn tennis balls, and my partner was like but then it wouldn't go far enough, and I said oh i am so glad you have a comprehensive chart of every archery attack throughout the entire middle ages and exactly how far away they were trying to shoot from, i bet a thousand years from now you are gonna be reincarnated as the archaeologist who says AK47 rounds were a myth because the only gun we have found preserved was a long distance sniper rifle and clearly AK47 rounds could neither fit in that rifle nor be shot as far as that rifle did, and actually nevermind I think actually we ruined our own marriage

a core memory i have is being in 5th grade (so about 9-12 years? i cant remember what age i am in memories but it was my fifth grade teacher) and being given a book by a teacher to read because i was such a ravenous reader. now, the back of this book told the description of a girl who befriends a groundhog and saves a garden or something. As a known animal obsessed preteen that would only read books about animals, they gave it to me.
i started to read the book. it was named a girls name or something. i think it was lauren. googling the name Lauren Book does not help me find it because apparently that is the Minority Leader of the Florida Senate according to Wikipedia so i cant find the book named lauren
i wondered where the groundhog was as this girl talks about her boyfriend and how theyre on again off again and then about how she misses her period and then depressing stuff happens her friend whos also a teen mom kinda abuses her daughters like leaving them alone for hours (i remember the name Daisy there somewhere) and she has rhe baby and it implies she gives the baby to her other friends who are infirtle and then it ends and--
Where is the fucking groundhog?
I turn the book around, also reading the back of the book, but apparently i had a keener eye, because i saw that this actually was like, some sort of fuckin preview for a completely different book. (why. why would you do that.) and this book just. didnt have a plot idea description thing. so that's how i learned about teen pregnancy i guess.

When I was a kid my friend Gene had tons of Playboy and Penthouse magazines that his dad owned and we would look through them. I specifically remember seeing Fred Grandy the actor who played gopher on love boat sitting in like a party or something where everybody was naked, including him. It was shocking to me at the time. I just didn’t comprehend that somebody on tv would get naked like that. Anyway, he went on to be a Republican representative (bummer) and I think still is. I just tried searching the Internet for the picture and I wonder if somehow he has had it scrubbed in some fashion because I know for a fact it was him and I can’t find it anywhere.

My childhood best friend used to help me locate white hairs on my head to pull out that developed after surviving almost falling into a coma from a severe chronic illness as a 12 year old

What is your wierdest/most unhinged memory and have you used it in a story
Tumblr media
Simple answer is no.
But seriously, I have too much weird stuff that happens to me that I post under @howlingwolf23. Sister ran herself over, finding mom's homemade dildo and hitting friends with it, dad walking around the house naked when he thought everyone was asleep, and that's just the quick weird memories I have. I don't really want to go digging for anything weirder\more cringe. Lol

thinking about being in my car in high school during lunch brought back some memories that weren't great for putting in tags on someone else's post.
But i also used to try and overdose on my lunch breaks in the car on these like really mild painkillers. So like obviously I was really bad at trying to kill myself and the worst it ever did was fuck up my vision for a bit and I'd just attend class like that and no one would notice.
Also the part about the police officer bothering me one time and the white privilege reminded me-- one time it was super foggy and I was driving, this was in my early 20's or maybe adult teens, and anyway I was driving really slowly because I could barely see in front of me. This asshole was shining super bright lights behind me and driving super close to me. I stopped to get some gas, and it turned out the person behind me was a police officer and they followed me to the gas station and parked behind me.
Luckily husband was there with me. But the officer was like ~ hm, you don't look drunk. Why were you driving so slow?
Back then I had little healthy fear, and hadn't built up my social skills to have a good filter, and said, very condescendingly ~ Because it's foggy out? And I can barely see in front of me? ...
Like thankfully he didn't get upset at me, just said Ok and left, but looking back that could have gone a whole different bad way.

One of my weirdest memories from high school is having to read a short story for English class, about a lady (I think her name was Cat?) who has a teratoma removed, puts cocoa powder and icing sugar on it, and gives it as a gift to this guy she likes. I think she viewed it as their child, or something.
10 years later, and no matter how much I search, I can't find out the name of it.

Does anyone else remember in the 2000's there was like this Disney Channel contest where a fan got to be in an episode of something (don't really remember, maybe Lizzie McQuire, Sweet life of Zack & Cody, or That's so Raven?)
And during a commercial break Disney aired like a snippet of behind the scenes where they were filming something with the kid that won but part of the bit they aired was after they called cut and the kid said to some adult on set (director?) "I'm just trying to make it work" and that person snapped at the kid like, "You don't make anything 'work,' you just read the line!" Or something like that?
And then the camera cut away to something else real quick like we weren't supposed to see that? And then we never saw it again? (honestly I don't even remember if the episode even aired or if I just missed it.)
Does anyone else remember that? Like did that actually happen or was it just a fever dream? Lol

It's weird how I can remember him comments on the old posts that are shown in fb memories before even opening them!
It's weird cuz more than 4 years passed, it's even weirder cuz he disappeared from my life since then!

The Prisma hypermarket here has been renovating and replacing all the store fixtures. Consequently the old shelves have been squeezed together to make room for installing the new ones, and most of the groceries are just anywhere they had room for them.
I know there are jacks that let you lift entire shelving units onto caster wheels and move them around that way.
On the other hand, 19-year old me and everybody else working the third shift that summer at the Walmart near my house, when they just wanted to rearrange a little and clean the 25 years of grime under the baseboards, tied ropes to the legs of each set of shelves and dragged them across the floor as though we were draft animals. Why? No idea. At least the shelves had only dry goods on them. I don't even remember if we plastic-wrapped all the product in place before doing it (probably?). And they paid for the gloves.

So, recently I ended up on the ants side of the internet and read all that shit up; about how all of them have a fucking Viking and Roman mindset.
When I read the post of them carrying their dead ones for, in their perspective, miles and dropping them in water, it sparked a memory of mine
When I barely a tween, one day I was sitting on the floor, I don't even remember where. I was really frustrated for some reason, and then this ant started walking around in circles in front of me.
I squashed it. I don't like killing bugs, but that day I just couldn't deal with it.
Then I saw another ant scurry beside it, and just- stop. Few seconds later it's tiny front limbs started waving around, even rubbing its own head.
Its pincers faced upwards, opening and closing as if it were screaming. I was fascinated; I was, horrified.
For some reason, my mind created an image of a warrior mourning a dead kin, screaming at the heavens, questioning the Gods and promising vengeance. I kept on staring for who knows how long until I ran away, fear and grief in my heart and tears pouring from my eyes.
Ever since then I saw ants somewhat differently, as if I could see more emotions in every little action of theirs. It didn't get me obsessed with ants, but I always noticed them more.
Once I even had an bawling argument with my grandma (or was it my mom?) when she lighted the stove when I repeatedly told her to wait cuz there was an ant on it. (It did die ig. I didn't see it again after the fire was ignited.)
So yeah, there's that.

Of all the non-traumatic childhood memories I have that I can't let go of
I think my absolute favorite has to be the time my alcohol uncle told me I was stupid for liking a car he disliked and lying to me about how that car "couldn't turn left" due to bad manufacturing (not a specific car, mind you, the whole make/model was incapable of turning left)

You're great friends if...
youtube
You can have conversations like this. Heck, don't tell me you can't even share the same thoughts.
Gonna say as a military brat, dad made sure we were always prepared for emergencies. Living around San Francisco gave him good reason to pack emergency survival (duffle) bags around the house.
After a quake in 1989 during the World Series and power was out everywhere for a bit, I had the emergency AM/FM radio to grab and stick my newly charged batteries into so we can hear what's going on around us.
📣 Back to the ickies
Please please please I'm begging for no one to try or even sniff that pukeified death trap.
Did I try anything close to as questionable this from the survivor duffle kit dad put out throughout the house?
Let's see... there was Vienna sausages, SPAM, a few gas masks, government cheddar cheese blocks, lamps, and batteries. My friend and I couldn't help but keep eating the yummy cheese.
Good news is that my parents didn't get mad at us for having the cheese 🧀.
