Chapter: Comic
I have a really hard time remembering to do things that are not internally motivated. I’ll be on my way to the kitchen and my wife will ask for something simple. “Bring me a glass of water please.” I’ll return a few minutes later and be confused by the expectant look on her face.

As long as she doesn’t get any ideas from “Memento”, you’re okay.
It’s worse if you return with a glass of water for yourself and proceed to drink it in front of her. I’ve done this sort of thing, on more than one occasion. It’s a simple case of forgetfulness, but she chalks it up as an insult. And do I pay for it later…
Of course, in the time it took her to write, “Empty Trash” backwards on your teeth, she could have just taken out the trash. But it’s the principle!
I can one-up you on that: I will pour her the glass of water, and return empty handed, also being confused by the expectant look on her face.
And she even went to the trouble of writing it backwards so he can read it easily in the mirror…
If your wife sees this comic she’ll think it is a brilliant idea to try. XD
At first I thought she was calling him empty trash.
That’s a clever way to get someone to remember to brush their teeth.
Yeah. “BSH UR TEETH”
Or I’ll come back with the water, and have completely forgotten the other thing I went for…
