What’s that word again…? What am I trying to say here…?

Do you ever have moments like this? You try and try to remember a word, but to no avail?

It happens to the best of us, but it can also be comedy gold, my friends!

Here are some really good ones that’ll make you laugh.

1. My arm calves hurt.

I once was trying to say forearms and came up with "arm calves" 😂😂

2. I’m looking for an opportunity.

My husband once called the barber to ask for an appointment, forgot the word, and what came out of his mouth was: “I was just wondering if you have any…hair cutting opportunities?”

3. Kind of sounds correct…

4. I’m always hungry for sleep.

6. Let’s consult the time map.

Perfect. Reminds of the embarrassing long period of time I kept forgetting the word calendar and instead called it a time map

7. That’s kind of poetic.

My friend's mom was tipsy and called the oven the "warming influence"

— Allison Walton (@allisonwalton) October 8, 2019

8. I like this one.

My husband once forgot the word "memory" and called it "visions of the past". You're in good company.

9. Those bad crime people.

I once forgot the word for people who break the law and called them “crime people” instead of criminals. Happens to the best of us.

10. Bailed out at the last minute.

11. The old flappy bug.

I was going for butterfly the other day, but had to settle for flappy bug.

12. That was long-winded.

I recently tried to come up with the word asterisk and the best I could do was, "the star symbol you put by words to indicate there's more words about it somewhere else."

13. I’m going to start using this.

Couldn’t think of “dishes” so I said I’m doing the food laundry

— rylie aitch (@ryaitch) October 8, 2019

14. You can never go back…

Called a restaurant to make a reservation but couldn’t think of the word so asked for a food appointment and now I can never show my face there again

15. That’s pretty bad…
