You Forgot Something忘東忘西

An elderly couple were having problems remembering things. One day, they went to see a doctor about their condition. The doctor checked them out, and their bodies were fine. He suggested they write things down to help them remember. They thanked the doctor and left. Later that day, they were watching TV at home when the old man got up to get something to eat.
"Do you want anything from the kitchen?" he asked his wife.
"Sure. I'd like a bowl of ice cream," she replied. "Do you think you can remember that? Maybe you should write it down."
"Of course I can remember," he answered. "It's just a bowl of ice cream."
The man went to the kitchen. After about 20 minutes, he returned with a plate of bacon and eggs for his wife. She looked at the plate and said to the man, "You forgot my toast."

一對老夫婦倆人都有忘東忘西的毛病。有一天他們去看醫生,針對他們的狀況尋求協助。醫生為他們做檢查,發現他們身體沒什麼毛病。醫生建議他們把事情寫下來幫助他們記東西。他們謝謝醫生,然後就離開了。當天稍晚,他們倆在看電視時。老先生起身要拿點東西吃。
他問太太說:「你要我到廚房拿點什麼給妳嗎?」
「好啊。我想要一碗冰淇淋,」她回答道。「你認為你記得住嗎?也許你該寫下來。」
「我當然記得住,」老先生回答。「不過是碗冰淇淋罷了。」
老先生到廚房去。大約二十分鐘後,他帶了一盤培根蛋回來給他太太。老太太看了看盤子,對老先生說:「你忘了我還要烤土司。」
