For me it’s:
Oh shit, that last update borked my computer… wth is postfix? How was it corrupted? Whatever… How do I reinstall it… [look up answer an Ask Ubuntu- Copy/Paste]; okay cool. Wait, losing postfix also broke my graphics driver?! Why? Whatever… I guess I should reinstall it… [look up answer an Ask Ubuntu- Copy/Paste]; okay cool.
Then I forget everything I just did because Ubuntu rarely breaks and also I think it was just my ssd dying…

and

I bought some pretty good reusable earplugs from Marks Work Warehouse a while ago, but it seems they don’t carry them anymore. They’re nifty little things that are all silicone with a tiny hole in the plug part that allows for sounds less than ~50dB (conversation levels).
