Noun. The part of the brain normally only found in female humans though not exclusively, which stores each and every little thing a partner does wrong, which is annoying, etc. Instead of sending the signal "They have done something you do not like.

Then, on the day they wish to dump their partner (D-day), this part of the brain will unleash all these stored memories to counteract the guilt caused in the act of dumping.
