GMMore 405: Forgetting Something Before Your Flight

[Music] that’s how I discipline my children I tell them I’m like they’re like daddy Texas tell me a bedtime story and sometimes I’m like okay what did they what did they do wrong today how can I work had not I’ve done that once and I will never do it again and I didn’t execute they didn’t execute it it wasn’t about that it was just about you know and this one’s about a little boy who had a bad attitude and then something bad did happen to him but um I got another thing straighten right up though yes I mean like I said this isn’t going on the male border this is going on like the shelf I bought a shelf for our office yeah I saw that I didn’t put it up yet but when I do that I go on I kind of think this should go on it I kind of think so too okay um one more piece of advice travel-related that we didn’t get to can we discuss that is that okay what are we debit Glenn O’Brien asked what do you do about that feeling you get when you think you you from oh gosh goodness gracious open up you’ve been sleeping on a tray again yeah it was it wasn’t nearly big enough I’d still be burping right now yes just demonstrating it for a moment gave you the first no it’s this bacon flavored cotton candy Glenn O’Brien asked what do you do about the feeling you get when you think you’ve forgotten something but you know you haven’t you know you’ve you’re headed towards the airport you’ve every time I try I know there’s I always have this feeling everybody gets this feeling is everybody get it I get it and I’m and I’m not even I’m not even obsessive and I get this feeling like crazy every single time I travel I think the answer to this is to preemptively designate something that you are going to leave behind so that when you have the feeling later it can be like a sacrifice to the feeling oh gosh I know I’ve forgotten something is it my keys no I’m driving the car isn’t my phone no god I know what it is it’s my left sock I intentionally left my left sock at home and so now not to worry about it anymore of course it’s gonna be one day on my trip where I’m wearing only a right all right you can just bring an extra pair of socks I know but they’re still gonna be that one day when I get down to that those pair of socks I only got one and you know what make with it make it an extra pair of socks you know I’m saying get all the socks no no no meat and then have one pair of socks that’s just one sock and you’re like yeah I got that one site but it doesn’t matter because I got extra take care of the feeling and you don’t have to do one sock day nope it has to hurt it has to hurt a little bit there has to be really something at stake in order for it to take I doubt that this is an effective strategy I’m just going to come out and say that I doubt that your plan will work I think that you will immediately move on to replace the next thing you’d be like yeah that stupid left sock trick that I tried on myself I know it’s not gonna work I’m just saying it’s going to make you feel idiot the feeling you actually didn’t forget anything is my point so sacrificially leaving something intentionally alleviates the feeling that is not related to reality anyway well right I get maybe I get very anxious let me ask you this when you get the feeling that you’ve forgotten something have you really have I ever really forgotten something many times what what put a percentage of it 30% of the time so a minority at a time that’s right so 70% of the time you’re having a feeling that is not rooted in reality but it’s that feeling that you know you guys leave a socket the thought process that then leads to you remembering and then you’re oh yeah yeah but it’s just like my toothbrush I can buy one of those yeah all you really need is a phone a phone charger clean pair of underwear and shoes and one sock really you don’t even need so I mean what if you just wear flip-flops and you be like I forgot all my socks but that’s cool because I got on flip-flops you can buy another sock you could buy flip-flops you could buy you just need to bring that your driver’s license that’s the one thing I forgot your driver’s license I’ve never forgotten anything that was that prevented me from flying if that’s it that’s what you’re worried about but I get very anxious while traveling I don’t know is I get the most anxious while traveling I just start thinking about gonna I’m gonna say something wrong to the lady up here and she’s not going on the plane my lady up here just somebody in authority at the airport one of those ladies that’s in authority of the airport you know I’m gonna say the wrong thing to her she’s gonna call security it’s not like it I haven’t said something stupid to the security guard before we know about that it sounds like you’re just listening to the voices in your head yeah right that’s what I’m going to say if I get in trouble yeah that works that works in this country too you can get out of anything if you get arrested for something heinous if you just confess everybody you were listening to the voices in your head that’ll send you to an institution but they want to imprison you so this is pop rocks but they’re bacon-flavored basically I’ve learned something very specific eating all this stuff that’s got bacon flavor on it ah bacon is good bacon flavor stuff not bacon flavor not once has it been good I mean you know what the thing is it’s not like you know you somebody ate cheese one day no this cheese is good you know what cheese on popcorn cheese on chips cheese on anything is good that doesn’t happen with bacon maybe just look I think we just need to put a moratorium on bacon flavored stuff yeah I miss that’s all that’s what I’m gonna say let’s go on a different direction if you want to send a sense not good if you want to send us something you don’t have to be something to eat I think we’ve given up on the bacon flavored stuff there’s a reason why bacon exists the way it does that’s what makes it that’s how it tastes good now that bacon was from them Utah people in a can that was good you know what it was just Betty was bacon it was bacon flavored bacon I don’t care if had been in a can for months single some shelf now there are pieces of this that are actually feel like they’re in my face of my brain now popping I’ll write it back in there’s a personal problem I’m listening to the voices in your head hmm I hope you’re having a good day I hope we’ve done our part to help start your day off right or you know what yeah it doesn’t have to be morning we firmly established that maybe mythical evening favor ending your day up or ending your day in a great way we gave you a good mythical morning and a bedtime story yeah looking at I’m stealing no don’t still
