This Twitter thread went viral for a reason: we’ve all been there. I’m talking about forgetting words that you use basically every day.
It’s like getting a brain freeze – everything stops working and you’re completely helpless.
It all began when this fella (who happens to hold a Ph.D. in physics) forgot the word for “photon”.
Seems like this “Doctor” should probably know that word, but, again, brain freeze.
But Mr. Coxon must’ve felt reassured after all these other tweeters started sharing their own similar mishaps:
1. Mmmm, wet salad. My favorite.
REALLY WET SALAD. Classic.
2. You need more Gwen Stefani in your life.
3. I’m likin’ this new word.
4. I’m stealing this one…
5. Words are hard.
6. Oh, Ken…
7. Yikes…
8. Makes a lot more sense IMO.
I think we all feel a little bit better (and smarter) now.
I know you have at least one of these words. Share in the comments below!
