What Memory From Your Life Would You be OK with Losing?

One of my favorite movies is Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.

If you’re a Millennial who has ever been artsy and/or angsty at any point in your life, you’ve probably at least seen it. It’s a sort of parable about the pain of remembering the love you lost, but how in the end, it’s really better to remember it all anyway, because that’s how you know you’re alive.

That’s what I was thinking of as I scrolled through this Reddit thread:

The Average human brain is comparable to about 2.5 million gigabites. Your brain has reached near capacity. What do you delete to free up space? from AskReddit

So, Sunshine‘s message aside, what would you delete if you could? Let’s find out what the internet thinks.

1. Reality vs reality.

Memories of reality shows I’ve watched.

All memories of being bullied and picked on as a child.

– MrDoomsday13

2. When you have VERY exclusive tastes.

Everything but fine dining and breathing.

– redguitar530

3. It can get better.

Yeah, I think I can safely delete about 8 years from the late 90’s to about 2006 when I was a drug addict.

That was just a never ending series of cringe that to this day a random (horrible) memory will pop into my head and I get embarrassed/remorseful/horrified all over again.

I have to physically try and make myself stop thinking about it. Of course, the harder I try the more it’s there ¯(ツ)/¯

– sucks2bdoxxed

4. The ultimate burn.

All “yo Momma” jokes so I can make place for yo Momma.

– xlr8inferno

5. The man knows his priorities.

The spank bank is staying everything else can be deleted.

– 11015h4d0wR34lm

6. Cache me if you can.

I’d delete my entire cache of childhood memories up until age 16.

– pokedbyhand

7. Screw education, I guess?

I need to delete all bullsh*t school taught us to make space for memes

– Sharma_boi_18

8. Dude, see a doctor.

Every time I farted, should free up about half

– Sacred42069

9. Choose your own way.

When I was studying for medical school I lost my mental road maps of the town I grew up in.

Wasn’t using them. They got written over.

It was weird when I visited and couldn’t find my way around.

– mapbc

10. To live it all over again…

My memories of the main campaign of some good video games… so that I can play it again, and walk through it like the first time ever.

– LithiumZer0

11. What keeps you up at night?

All of those awkward moments you think of when you’re trying to go to sleep.

– Manu442

12. Spice up your life!

I could probably do without the lyrics to the entire Spice Girls back catalogue.

– MakesTypos

13. This program IS an error.

Anxiety.exe

– James-Avatar

14. Seriously, 100 GB, wtf?

Call of duty warzone, should free up at least half of it

– abzzdev

15. I need a location…

My fear of wicker furniture, my desire to play the trumpet, my tentative plans to purchase a hat, and six years of improv workshops.

– William_Harzia

Not sure what I would erase if given the chance. Would probably consult a therapist about it, have tons of anxiety about the decision, and then just decide to say screw it and go back to bed to remember stuff.

What about you? What would you delete?

Interesting Facts About Temporary Buildings

Entrepreneurs around the world are opting for temporary buildings because the costs for temporary structures are reasonably affordable, and the facilities they can provide are equal to or better than those offered by permanent buildings. The uniqueness of temporary buildings is that they can be erected in any area and for any purpose. All of this is made possible because a specialized company can offer engineering options to find solutions for any kind of topography, snowfall, earthquakes, and other natural events that can have an impact on the safety of the building. The following are some interesting facts you should

This Revenge Story Proves You Shouldn’t Mess With Someone’s Christmas – Even if They’re Family

It’s fair to say that every family does the holidays differently.

You might do Santa up big, or play him down (or ignore him totally). Everyone might buy each other all of the gifts they can afford, or you might draw names from a hat to keep things less expensive (but still loving). There might be so many kids that you just stop buying for everyone period, because it costs a crazy amount of cash.

Whatever you decide when it comes to gifts, as long as your entire family is ok with it – or gets ok with it – you should still be able to enjoy the holiday together.

It’s about family, after all, not presents…right?

That’s what this guy thought, at least, when he and his father agreed that it was no longer necessary for everyone to buy for everyone else’s kids, only their own parent/siblings – great news for OP (original poster), since he was the only childfree dude in the bunch.

Image Credit: Reddit

Here is the cast of characters (I really appreciate this guy’s way with words!)

Image Credit: Reddit

Image Credit: Reddit

Things begin to go awry when OP hands over his Nintendo DS, goes to get a drink, and hears trouble brewing.

Image Credit: Reddit

No one else is concerned about the situation, but the stepsister eventually wanders in to “handle” things.

Spoiler alert: she handled nothing.

Image Credit: Reddit

6 months later, the stepbrother calls with the news that OP should really buy Christmas gifts for the kids this year.

Image Credit: Reddit

They have a discussion about it that really doesn’t go all that well.

Image Credit: Reddit

And ends with OP thinking they understand each other, and that now no one is getting gifts.

But of course that wasn’t all, because then his father called.

Image Credit: Reddit

The same sort of conversation happened, with OP expressing continued disinterest in impressing the kids.

Image Credit: Reddit

In the end, OP agrees to buy small gifts and bring them to Christmas.

Image Credit: Reddit

OP promises that the kids will definitely enjoy his gifts.

Image Credit: Reddit

Enter Christmas, with not 1, but 4 gifts under the tree for each of the four children. He’s excited and can’t wait, so he encourages the kids to open his gifts first.

Image Credit: Reddit

The parents agree, and of course, the kids do love their gifts.

Image Credit: Reddit

Then all hell breaks loose.

Image Credit: Reddit

Then, the beautiful parting shot.

Image Credit: Reddit

Here’s your TL;DR if you skimmed up until this point.

Image Credit: Reddit

Do you agree with how this guy handled his stepfamily?

I have to say, I do think this guy could be nicer about his nieces and nephews, because they’re family and also just because they’re kids, and really don’t deserve this kind of judgment.

That said, gifts should be optional and no one should be forced to buy them if they’re not moved to do so, right?

Unique Things People Collected and Shared With the World

I’m not sure what the psychology is behind why we love to collect things – coins, books, rocks, figurines, records, what have you – but there must be some reason that so many people lovingly gather certain things to display in their homes.

Sometimes those collections go beyond the average, too, and that’s when they really become interesting, if you ask me.

Here are the really different collections kept by 17 different people.

17. Ok I have questions about this one.

Like…why? And how?

Over the past 15 years my dad collected 1,785 bowling balls and built a giant Bowling Ball Pyramid from pics

16. Alphabets made from beach stones.

This is one of several alphabets assembled by Belgian type designer Clotilde Olyff from stones collected at the beach.

15. I can see hanging onto these for a rainy day.

Or for the inevitable apocalypse.

Collection of reference seeds found in my Grandad’s attic from mildlyinteresting

14. These extremely cool “punched” state quarters.

I mean, if you thought they were cool before…

A year ago, I started staying in and peircing state quarters, instead of going out and getting in trouble. Here is my collection so far. from pics

13. This is super cool.

I would love to see all of the birds that came!

12. The crows never forget.

So, better friend than foe.

Inspired by an old reddit post. I started feeding bar nuts to these crows that are regural to the patio of a bar I work at. My collection of gifts finally started after 3 months. from pics

11. This looks like something out of a horror movie.

I don’t like it.

The product of 15 years collecting shedded antlers from the woods. from pics

10. That’s something worth keeping.

It would make you smile every single day!

9. For what purpose?

Just to fill a barrel?

Since the late 80s, my office has been collecting used staples that were removed from documents that needed to be microfilmed/scanned. Here is that collection. from pics

8. I don’t know what I was expecting, but it wasn’t this.

These are seriouslycool!

My grandfather’s pencil sharpener collection i inherited from mildlyinteresting

7. Happy Birthday!

Also, that’s a LOT of tires.

6. I bet it’s not really about the rocks.

It’s about finding the rocks.

Perfectly round rocks found on the beach. Bonus: egg rock, triangle, and taco rock. from interestingasfuck

5. Those belong in a museum.

Not everyone is so lucky to live where these can be found.

Some of my favorite arrowheads. Amazing little pieces of history collected on our private property in southern Arizona. from interestingasfuck

How endearingly dorky.

This is my Periodic Table of Elements with actual elements! from mildlyinteresting
