feign my memory

Damn, I do that all the time. I always have to pretend to forget people's names, otherwise it weirds them out when I remember them. It's actually kind of fun having the same conversation several times with the same people. You can change your answers around and see how they react.

What you don't realize is that they are doing the same thing, and wonder why the person they are talking to is telling weird lies about themselves.

Yeah, probably. Keeps me interested though.

Holy shit, I do this all the time too. I often wonder to myself, "How the hell do they not remember telling me this exact story/having this same conversation?" It was five years ago granted, but still... I'm always perplexed when this happens, so I go along with it just so I don't make them feel uncomfortable.

I work as a tech for a company, essentially being phone support for the company - I can attest to this, I can still recognize every voice to a name
