You remember rubbish

1. You remember rubbish

“What is the birthday of Misty and Sparky?” K.

“31st of May, 2002.” Y.

“How did you know?” K.

“Why did you ask to begin with?” Y.

“How?” K.

“Don’t you know me after those years?” Y.

“You asked me the question but you don’t trust me?” Y.

“How?” K.

“Each of us has the capacity to remember everything we had ever seen or heard. The trick is how you retrieve it. Is this beyond your capacity? Ha-Ha-Ha.” Y pointed at K’s dumb head.

“It was a question of compliment, you know?” K smiled wryly.

“Oh, O.K. I remember certain details every well. An acquaintance was once amazed that I actually remembered certain details of our first introduction years after we talked again. I noticed that I usually remember imageries, lighting and the ambiance. Do you know what I mean...?” Y murmured.

“Yes, I was impressed. You remember rubbish.” K.

“Shush, just think that I was born with a poetic mind.” Y.

2. No, you remember rubbish.

“I hate it when people are sluggish with their spelling - confusing then / than, to / two, there / their.” K.

“Do you find poor pronunciation annoying?” Y.

“No.” K

“Why should you find poor spelling more irritating than poor pronunciation?” Y

“It is a case of laziness rather than willingness.” K

“Do you imply that pronunciation is harder?” Y

“No. Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious is very easy to pronounce.” K.

“Super... I can’t pronounce that. What does it mean?” Y

“It doesn’t mean anything.” K

“How do you remember it?” Y

“I just do.” K claimed proudly.

“You remember rubbish.” Y.

3. You remember rubbish and I will tell you why.

“I am going to blog it. Can you email me the spelling of that super-thing?” Y.

“Google!” K.

“S-u-p-e-r... how it is going to come up?” Y.

“You had no idea about searching.” K.

“Google: Mary Poppins.” K added.

“I searched what I like.”

“Just do MARY POPPINS!” K said impatiently.

“Look the auto-suggestion. It (Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious) is not on the top of the search list. How far do I need to go with the exact spelling for it to come up?

By typing the word you just accurately remembered and pronounced, what does it tell you? What you remember is totally unnatural, irrelevant and rubbish!” Y.

“If your criteria is come up on top of the list within 3 letters, its SEX.” K raised his volume.

4. He concludes it crudely.
