See, the trick is not to remember those in the first place. Cuts out a step. 
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Yeah, sure, edit. That's what I'll use from now on, edit.
Um......... sorry......... you're just the victim of editing. Not my fault!
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

I see I'm not the only one to have found that short cut.

I think there's plenty of room in the brain for new information. The trick is putting it in there in an orderly way so that you can actually find it again, and cross-reference it to other stuff you know.
Me, I have a weird memory. It takes me forever to match up people's names and faces, and when learning something like dance moves it takes me three times as long as average.
On the other hand, I find it easy to remember a 19-digit banking card number, or the spelling of some big-ass medical word, or the license code for Windows NT 4.0 (which I haven't installed in at least 15 years).

Hi! I have a hyperactive mind and it's very very hyper in fact and in fact always or at least often hyper probably often or very often but effectively always whenever I am not sleeping or depressed pretty much which is thankfully a lot of the time but life is complicated and underneath I think there is a very deep sadness to me but I think that will go away when I eventually fulfill my potentials and move on in life which I do think will eventually happen it's just a matter of time and I am a lot slower at learning and improving and progressing in life than a lot of people but yeah so yeah pleased to meet you oh wait you've been on this website for ages and this isn't an introduction so yeah anyway I agree with you from a biological standpoint we aren't meant to consume much information and hey did you know that there's a whole album about that called Anno Domini High Definition and the acronym is ADHD for no coincidence in fact that's what the album is about the information age and how it overwhelms us and it's by one of my favorite rock bands ever here it is enjoy:

Why did that immediately make me think of this?
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
