Do You Ever 'Forget' How To Walk Down Stairs?
 

I'm trying to ascertain whether or not something's wrong with me. At least a couple of times a week, I have to physically stop when I'm going down stairs and think about what my next step should be. I asked my wife if she did this as well, and she just called me an idiot and laughed, but I'm willing to bet that others do this as well (the forgetting how to walk down stairs bit).

So?

In this case, I believe you're wife is right.

Your and idiot.

i feel the same way, but is it because my ankles and knees don't want to work first thin in the morning... Old age is a bitch..... :banghead:

If it's dark, I usually think I'm at the bottom when I'm not. It's a weird feeling to take a step forward and your foot goes lower than you think it should. It has almost tripped me up a few times.

I don't have problems with stairs.

But, sometimes I stand in front of a door for several minutes before I remember how to open it.

Does this happen to you, Mr. Donger?

not yet...

Not even the tendonitis in my knees causes me to have to pause and think about the stairs.

Maybe your legs are revolting from all the years of not being washed?

Not even once in my life, even when drunk.

I have done that alot on stairs, but it is related to my balance being somewhat off since I had brain surgery, have you considered you may have too much on your mind and are simply too involved in thinking about this or dealing with it and it just gets in the way of normal acts?

It happens... :shrug:

The responses so far do not fill me with encouragement.

I've never done that but I've frequently carried 2 items to the garbage can and thrown the wrong one in.

What about bottles and cans, Mr. Donger?

Do you experience difficulty opening bottles and cans?

Is this anything like the time when Beavis and Butthead forgot how to take a piss?

No.

Remind Pink to never allow you to take out the trash while carrying your child.
