Imagine your brain is like a hard drive with a maximum capacity.

Over your life you have filled it up woth all sorts of stuff.

If you needed to delete some memories, to free up some space, what would you remove?

I would begin by deleting all references to the band "Queen". I seem to be able to recall complete guitar solos, note for note, and lyrics. Why? I don't know. I think when I was growing up someone was a big fan of the band. I'll keep Bohemian Rhapsody but the rest must gtfo.

More to come...

The t.v. show Friends. I can recall the names of the entire cast and a lot of plot developments, Joey, Chandler, Ross, Monica, Phoebe, Rachel, GTFO. I don't need you.

Luckily the brain already supresses memories that you don't need, it's done automatically. 🙂

Too soon to tell. There's a lot of vacant space in here.

Oh, maybe what I did to--but that would require expunging her memories as well.

Hopscotch, you need to know the lyrics for Killer Queen and all the rest, or your brain would have suppressed them.

I can play the entire solo for I Want to Break Free in my head. This is MADNESS.

Also - do you know the names of the Teletubbies? I do. Why do I have to recall this trite nonsense? Why can't I remember cool stuff, like how to fly a helicopter, instead?

Because you've spent your life occupied with such trivia, instead of learning useful things like flying a helicopter. It's okay, our lives are total fluff.

The opening passage of the Canterbury Tales in Olde English pronunciation.
The lyrics to almost every Olivia Newton John song.
The theme tune to Muppet Babies.
The intricately detailed impression of Battlefield Earth.

Many, many others.

I agree Hop. But Bohemian Rhapsody must go as well. And if I never hear We Are The Champions again in my life, I will be blessed.

Lets also get rid of every movie that was made from a TV sitcom. Hell, let's get rid of Hollywood.

Erm, I don't really have that problem. 😕 Quite the opposite, in fact. I'd like
to remember the lyrics to "The show must go on", if I may please.

I would keep that quote "Why do they call it a check? Why not a ... Yugoslavian?". The rest can go.
