Weird Things You've Noticed Recently

[Read_Lives_of_Saints]

I am wondering if anyone else has ever noticed how some people, mostly women, but some people seem to recall a great deal about the details of their personal lives. Things like meals they ate after an operation decades ago. They seem to know so much about themselves I can't help but wonder if it's not just a good memory but some kind of narcissism or solipsism. Although, come to think of it, I've known people absorbed with themselves with high levels of drama that seem to forget everything about their life. Maybe their trauma is too high and they forget, while others remember. I can only think this means someone thinks of themselves. A lot. Anyone have any theories?

I don't think there's any connection between a good memory and narcissism or solipsism. Knowing facts about oneself is one of the prerequisites of deeper self-awareness, but it does not initiate it. Memory merely creates the potential, although I think everyone has that potential regardless of their recall ability.

I've noticed that I tend to have significantly less detailed long term memory recall than a lot of other people I interact with. However I've usually ascribed it to my years of abusing the devil's lettuce.

I think memory is just funny. I remember having a half chicken dinner when I took a girl out for homecoming dinner 45 years ago, but I don't remember what I ate after my wife died. You'd think the latter would have a stronger imprint.

Of course, to write this post I looked back and found a random memory where I could remember what I ate. It's cherry picking. I also remember what I ate on my first date with my wife.

I've noticed a preposterous amount of unleashed dogs roaming free in areas that are meant for families, I.E. children. From my experience, infant children and unleashed dogs don't mix. But apparently nobody gives a shit about that these days. Kids are now lower on the totem pole that dogs.... Sad.

Most of these dogs are owned by childless, barren witches. It's seriously out of control. Its one thing to be a childless dog lady, but to then allow your animal (little removed from a savage wolf) to lawlessly roam free around a beach where 5 month old children are learning to crawl, is an absurdity.

For context; I live in SoCal and have a 5 month old daughter. We took her to the beach today. The beach in question is supposedly NOT ALLOWED to have DOGS AT ALL. I.E. local statute says no dogs allowed on this beach until 5 PM. Yet there are at least 15 UNLEASHED dogs running around, acting savage, and barking at each other. And I'm not talking cute poodles (although there were a few of those), no I'm talking the type of dog that a ran-through California 35 year old woman gets; a super ugly, nasty, dog-pound one that looks like a giant rat. (Women feel like they are "saving" these brutes... It's meant to build self-respect after allowing themselves to get porked by yet another unemployed winansea surfer bro.. But I digress)

Truly unreal amounts of nihilism (which is all this really is) around us, and increasingly so. "Oh, sorry your 5-month old daughter doesn't mean shit to me. As long as my dog can have fun... County law, and safety be dammed." This is their logic. And they fake laugh the entire time while sipping High Noons.

I'm about to start packing to the beach, and no joke will be fully prepared to mag dump on one of these things should it approach within a 10-yard radius of my daughter.

Truly weird and disgusting stuff.

Save a couple rounds in case the witch comes after you afterwards...
But regardless, it is truly disgusting how much people "care" about stupid mutts compared to children that are the future of the nation.
The problem I see is almost everyone feels that they are the exception to the rules and anyone enforcing or reminding that the beach is supposed to be dog free is seen as a 'Karen'.
Maybe it's just a lack of social shame in general. No accountability and no consequences for bad behavior...
