I forgot the word pigment 10 times today

<p>help. whenever i try to recall it my brain goes 'skin, skin, skin, skin..' but it can't make the jump to pigment.</p>

<p>then, in frustration, i quickly look it up. I need to remember 'prurigo pigmentosa' at the doctors tomorrow. it's important. i got the first part down easy, but i'm having trouble now.</p>

<p>thanks.</p>

<p>Just write it down on your hand in marker or write it in a notecard and bring it in your pocket.</p>

<p>I thought this was a ■■■■■ thread…</p>

<p>I’m disappointed.</p>

<p>I never remember the word pigment. I just call it natural color thingy</p>

<p>Imagine yourself as a pig and think of what you meant. Boom. Pigment.</p>

<p>haha it went okay. I remembered! </p>

<p>you know what made me feel inferior though? after i mentioned it to my doctor he repeated it perfectly to someone else five minutes later. i couldn’t have done that :(</p>

<p>note that I’m only prone to feeling inferior to someone smarter than me when i resent them for reasons besides their smartness (in this particular case i resented my doctor because he seemed totally brainwashed by whatever outdated education he received).</p>

<p>more specifically i guess he seemed to * identify * with his outdated education. i guess those two things are really the same thing though :p.</p>
