Can't remember if that band was supposed to suck, can't remember if that's the movie I saw and didn't like or the other one that came out at the same time, don't know which part of the franchise is supposed to be good.

Does that happen to you a lot, does it like get in your way. Sometimes it's like guess I'll go find out and sometimes it's like better do nothing all day just to be safe, and sometimes the three seconds of focus that can be spent on google pay off so it's nbd. I get more concerned about "wasting time" and trying to pin down my exact mood than accidentally buying a dvd I won't watch again but

A friend of mine & I used to call it "the Record Store syndrome".  You'd go in, wanting to look for 3 albums or so, and as soon as you entered you can't remember shit (CRS).  It would last until you were far enough away from the place that you didn't really feel like going back.  Eventually it starts happening at grocery stores and other places.  Or you'll get coupons for products & you think, yeah I'll try that...only to remember after your purchase you hate that brand because it made you sick the last time you ate it.

It reaches it's apex when you walk into a room and can't recall why you wanted to be there.

There's been I think three different times over the years where I've ended up buying a book I already had just because I couldn't remember if I already had it or not and they had changed the cover just enough to throw me off. And once where I bought the same magazine I already had because I hadn't read it yet and the cover didn't click for some reason. 

I have a niece who likes weird things though and is a voracious reader too so nothing really goes to waste. 

There are also some meme channels on youtube that are just garbage - they show a meme and have a computer voice read them. I hate those channels but can never remember which ones do that and which ones are more gifs with sound types that just don't advertise as such or just show a series of themed memes with background music. Hate the computer voice ones so much.
