Chapter 5. Faulty Memories
Although we don’t like to admit it, sometimes our memories are wrong.
For instance, suppose you are in a fight with your significant other about whose turn it is to wash the dishes. You feel that your memory is a steel trap and you did the dishes for the past week, so obviously, it is their turn. Yet they swear the same thing. Whose memory is inaccurate, and how can you begin to determine that?
Someone’s memory is clearly incorrect, or both of them are! But there is such confidence in those memories.
