Read this thread yesterday and thought I'd post something but got distracted. Nope can't remember what it was.......

When I was younger I used to get annoyed when people forgot to turn off their indicator after they had finished making the turn. Casually cruising along a straight road with their left indicator flashing. I used to think how easy it is to just remember to switch it off.

Now at 51, I am sometimes THAT person.

There's absent-mindedness in action. I'm really not sure you can actually 'make' eggs. That's the hen's job!
If anyone were to start a thread about US English terms of phrase that shouldn't annoy you but do, this would be top of my list.

No, my friend, you are not going to make some eggs, you're going to boil, poach, fry, scramble etc. some eggs.

I like this thread. I’m relieved and get much comfort from seeing that there are so many of us with the same or similar issues - which means we’re all completely normal for our age(s). Though I suppose it could also mean we’re all on the verge of going bonkers.
I think the long term damage of some of the performances under Hypia could be a factor

I recently had a small denture fitted as I couldn't afford an implant. For the second time in 2 weeks I've forgotten the blasted thing. Really annoying and I look like a pirate. 🤦🏻
