Hahaha! For me, the hideous clothing reminder was during an epic Ebay run. I always wear black and dark colors in straightforward style, no patterns. This thing was a poofy monstrosity of aqua and yellow (2 colors I HATE!!!) spaghetti strap dress made of tulle (basically, nylon net)!!!!! WTF?! And wear did I think I would wear it? I have NO occasions to even dress up for, let alone to that level -- of ..whatever... what kind of occasion was this thing thing even made for?! (Also, any non-existant super fancy occasion would have already been covered by 2 very fancy floor length taffeta skirts. From the same spree. ) Like you, TG I never wore it. (Any of them.) But when I ran across the aqua/yellow later, I seriously considered keeping it as a shocking visual reminder of just how out of hand and out of character I can get. Got rid of it though. I'm a moderate minimalist. Except in episodes.)

I start watching one movie, turn it off, watch another movie then turn it off and go back to the first movie. I have over 100 half watched movies.
Haha! Multiples, oh yes. And not just things like different colors. I've bought more than one copy of cds that I'd have no trouble replacing -- because they might get a scratch! (Even though I handle discs with exceeding care, and have never scratched one.) I won't even say how much I paid for one of them. It's just too damn embarrasing. Worse? I effused to the seller about how glad I was to get it(!) He must've thought I was nuts. I've often thought.... an Ebay seller's dream must be to get 2 manic people bidding on their item. And maybe that's what happened...
And on the other? I'll be playing music and think, "I should put some music on.". Like, yeah, maybe I should play everything at once, lol. (Sorry to say this also happens in normal times. Not sure what's up with that.)

(And thanks, shattered. There's quite a bit more from the very same day. (Surprise surprise.) BF's eyes were bugged out of his head. He knew that I had not dx'd for a couple of decades, and said, "I can not BELIEVE people could see things like this and not realize!" I can't either.
Thanks for this!
