Languish Dreaming

[MadImmortalMan]

A couple of times, I've hit up a thread here and I've found...Me. From like a decade ago. Usually it's fine. I'll normally stand behind most of my bad takes from ages past. But it's weird.

I look at my old posts and realize that I was a jerk.

You did become a lot more mellow.

Raz, you were an edgy boy back in the day.

On Youtube, sometime you get served a video that you already watched some time ago.  On multiple occasions, I would watch the video, think of a comment I would want to leave, but then see that somebody already made the exact point I wanted to make.  Then I check closer and realize that it was me from 8 years ago.

I'm going to repurpose this as: "Do I have a doppleganger?" thread.

Last week I met with a friend. She told me she had followed my recommendation and had started a standup comedy course, and she was loving it.

Thing is... I didn't remember ever saying that to her. Lo and behold, she resent me an email dated from last summer where I'm telling her to do that, and pointing her out to that particular course. An email I don't remember ever writing. 

Either the guy running the course (which I have met just a couple times) has a weirdly ellaborate hacking scheme or I suffer from early stage memory loss

Maybe you just give advice while really drunk?

Heh, something similar happens to me from time to time, with friends telling me stuff like "remember when you said this and that?" and I have no recollection whatsoever of the situation they describe. 

And I thought I had good memory...

Or maybe you he should just get drunk more so stuff like this bothers him less.

I haven't had anything as severe as Celed's story but just recently I had a couple of occasions where a friend would reminescne about some obscure thing that happened to us somewhere and I would have no recollection whatsoever. Granted they were very minor things but still hard not to think of it as a taste of what's to come in old age.
