    Do not try to memorize your shopping list, that is a trap. There are too many distractions in the store and you will not think of the thing you need most

    Who the fuck uses a memorized list in the era of smart phones?

    I have lists of lists!

    On a pragmatic note: Anylist is a cross platform app (Web, Windows, iOS, Android) that syncs instantly.

      Me, about once a month. “It’s only 3 things, not worth writing down, I’ve got this”

      Narrator: he didn’t got this.

      I also use Anylist, its great for my partner and i to both add things to. I have added custom categories and named them after each aisle name and what items are there for my regular grocery store. So as i work down the list i am moving along the store and there is very minimal backtracking or going down aisles i dont need to. It has both streamlined my grocery shopping and also cut down on impulse buying crap.

    C actually gets done pretty often because I’d starve otherwise. Also, no car means I can only buy as much food at once as I can carry back home.

    I actually like doing laundry as long as I can listen to a podcast while doing it, it’s the perfect amount of stimulation for my brain to not completely wander off.

    I’ll take the mail. We hardly ever get any, I always enjoy it when we have some items in the mail to sort.

      Whenever I think about not having checked the mail in a while, I get paranoid about possibly missing an important tax form or something. Like the letter will say, “Please reply by {some day a months ago}” and it’s some important shit I forgot about. Makes me run to the box.

      This is reminding me - I need to pay the bill from my psychiatrist. But they’re closed right now… Can someone repost this tomorrow during business hours, maybe I’ll see it then?
