一名女子把自己的照片而不是自己的車發(fā)給了保險公司的人，超過5萬人覺得這很搞笑

Stirring sugar into your coffee and then throwing the spoon into the trash. Taking a carton of orange juice out of the fridge and pouring it into a bowl instead of a glass. Looking for your keys/glasses/cup of coffee when they’re in your hand/on your head/next to you. Each and every single one of us has had moments in our lives where we’ve done completely stupid or wrong things without realizing it. To bystanders, our mistakes are obvious. But we only realized we’ve had a brain fart much, much later. That’s when we get embarrassed.

在咖啡里加糖，然后把勺子扔進垃圾桶。從冰箱里拿出一盒橙汁，把它倒進碗里而不是玻璃杯里。當鑰匙在你手里/在你頭上/在你旁邊時，尋找你的鑰匙/杯子/咖啡。我們每個人在生活中都有做過完全愚蠢或錯誤的事情卻沒有意識到的時候。對旁觀者來說，我們的錯誤是顯而易見的。但我們直到很久以后才意識到自己犯了個錯。那就是我們感到尷尬的時候。

One person who had an incredibly embarrassing brain fart was Alyssa Stringfellow who wanted to be added to her ‘memaw’s’ car insurance policy. For that, she needed to send the company some photos. Now, most of us probably intuitively know that the company meant pictures of Alyssa’s vehicle. However, that’s not what she sent.

阿麗莎·斯特林費羅就是一個做事不過大腦特別尷尬的人，她想把自己的“memaw”汽車保險加進去。為此，她需要向公司發(fā)送一些照片。現(xiàn)在，我們大多數(shù)人可能憑直覺知道，這家公司指的是阿麗莎的車的照片。然而，她發(fā)送的并不是。

The teacher from Arkansas admitted that she had a ‘blonde moment’ and nobody’s innocent when it comes to those. The story went viral on the internet, as well as having major media outlets picking it up. Alyssa’s post on Facebook got over 50,000 likes and was shared by 31,000 people who related to the teacher’s derpy moment.

這位來自阿肯色州的老師承認，她有一個“黃金時刻”，在這種情況下，沒有人是無辜的。這個故事在網(wǎng)上迅速傳播開來，各大媒體也紛紛轉載。阿麗莎在Facebook上的帖子獲得了超過5萬個贊，有3.1萬名網(wǎng)友分享了她的這段視頻。

Live Science explains that one of the things to blame for memory lapses is going through a door. As it turns out, going through one separates one set of thoughts and memories from the next and is triggers what is known by brainy people as an ‘event boundary.’ So if you find yourself putting your phone in the fridge, can never find the TV remote, or can’t remember what you forgot, stop walking through so many doors!

《生活科學》雜志解釋說，造成記憶衰退的原因之一是要穿過一扇門。事實證明，經(jīng)歷一件事會將一組想法和記憶從另一件事中分離出來，從而觸發(fā)了聰明人所說的“事件邊界”。“所以，如果你發(fā)現(xiàn)自己把手機放到了冰箱里，找不到電視遙控器，或者忘記了什么，那就不要再穿過這么多的門了!”
