A method of writing something down before you forget, whether on a piece of paper or on your arm or hand. May also include calling your own phone and leaving yourself a voice message, or emailing yourself. Basically a self-reminder.
Roommate 1: Can you give me a ride to the airport on Friday? My flight leaves at 6.
Roommate 2: Yeah hold on a sec, I'm gonna write that on a sticky note, just for memory insurance.

Get the memory insurancemug. When your brain completely spaces out on something, usually in an embarrassing way, so you try to make light of the fact that you really screwed up or may in fact be heading toward dementia.

Get the memory burpmug. 
Memories and information are stored in the brain like files in an office. Stacks and stacks of irrelevant bullshit stored right next to stacks and stack of useful knowledge, however they are rarely confused. Unfortunately, there is no governing form of organization like alphabetical order or topical arrangement, but the thinker is still confident that after flipping through pages and pages of bullshit they will come to the idea/image/fact/etc they were looking for.
Person 1: "I love looking at leaves in the fall."
A person with Catalog Memory: Flips through the molecular process of photosynthesis, looks at the person, thinks about where their shirt was made and what language those people speak, imagines having sex with person 1 and where they would do it, thinks about photosynthesis again, then finds a memory relevant to the original comment. After about 10-20 seconds, person with catalog memory says: "My family and I used to take a road trip down the river every year. We'd stop at a bunch of parks to look at the leaves."

Get the Memory Bugmug. An old shirt that carries bacteria in the armpits causing your armpits to sweat more profusely than usual. The shirt will have visible signs of sweating under both armpits where the shirt has wet through due to sweating. The visible signs of sweaty armpits are nowhere near as severe when wearing a brand new shirt, this is because the shirt has no bacteria, or "Sweat Memory". You have previously sweated in that shirt and the shirt remembers it.
