Reminds me of that big famous movie where they use the time loop mechanic as a metaphor for dementia. Can’t think of the name of it right now, but it’ll come to me…
Edit: To clarify, I’m insensitively implying I have dementia. It’s how I deal with my parents’ having it now.
My wife is forgetful, and I retell her jokes all the time. I read her this post and made a joke about it at her expense. She got grumpy about it, but I won’t have to worry about that for too long.
Reminds meh of that retirement home orderly who abused dementia patients. And he thought it was the perfect crime too.
That is, until he took an ethics class and chose to write his final paper on whether there’s any real difference between abusing someone with no memory and abusing a simulated character in a video game.
He still does it but now he’s racked by the guilt. Philosophy: Not even once!
my gf is forgetful as hell so i can just recycle the same jokes/fun facts every 2 weeks
I told mine that I’m forgetful, so now i can just repeat the same jokes/fun facts every two weeks
I am forgetful and my wife has brain damage, so to an outside observer, our conversations probably look like we’re stuck in a time loop

Thanks for the tip, I’ll make sure to avoid any philosophy education.
