Yeah, I have shitty memory too... Sometimes my friends talk about something we did 15-20 years ago and half the time it unlocks a memory, the other half I can't recall at all

i don't fucking remember most of yesterday, my brain is just extremely judicious about what it retains and catalogues.
on the other hand i can regale you about physics and how railways work and stuff like that..

Yeah, that’s it normal, hence why they remember and you don’t dude… you don’t think that’s not strange? That multiple friends recall events easily and you don’t…?

Different people remember different things? It's really not that complicated. What one brain decides is worth holding onto might not be worth it to another.

Hell, even what we do remember is half hallucinated to fill in the gaps (probably not the right word for it, but you get the idea)

No, it's been like that all my life

That’s still not normal dude.
