That calls for a Venn diagram of the things you forgot and then remembered versus the things you forgot and didn’t remember. But logically, that diagram would be impossible to create.
Did you bring your memory aid to remind you to remember to recall not to forget to prompt your recollections of why you are here and what day is it anyway?
I’ve learned that when I walk into a room to do something and can’t remember what, if I back out of the room to the place I last remember standing, it helps (I dread the day that I find myself doing it several times in succession). I actually did this years ago when I couldn’t remember my hotel room number and no one was at the desk. I backed away from the desk and down the hall and located my room on the first try. Since then, I carry that key sleeve with the room number on it in another pocket.
Upper left narrative box contains priceless insight. Unusual for this site, which on those occasions when the cartoonist is political, is routinely Left.

Before there was the Government – there was…. the spouse!

The other side of the sign says “Make sure your fly is zipped up.”

“Begins to suspect” !!. I’ve known for a long time

I thought the sign was meant for the people in government, particularly for the politicians once they’ve been elected.

I once heard the following announcement over the PA system in an airport:
Your attention please. Will all passengers who have not yet done so, please do so immediately? Thank you.

It’s good to remember that government is just people.
Mostly, people you wouldn’t want to know, but still, people.

Sign pretty much applies to everyone, as Gilbert wrote in Ruddigore, “Duty, duty must be done – the rule applies to everyone.”

Government not only messes with our middle class heads, but rapes, pillages and plunders our wallets.

I remember everything I say I am going to do. Particularly if I really don’t mean to do it when I say it.

Messing with us (and our RNA)… they say: get a booster shot because the first one didn’t work like we thought it would.

Isn’t that R2D2 hiding behind the sign? (“This is not the droid you’re looking for!”)

Did you remember that you decided, that what you said you were going to do, wasn’t a good idea.

Old people will not remember any of that. What they intended to do and whether they did it or not.

A few general elections ago, the UK Conservative Party’s slogan was “Are you thinking what we’re thinking?” What?
