binge-term memory loss

When you've binge an entire season (or more) of a show and you forget about important plot details from earlier episodes. Often occurs because you've consumed so much content that you can't remember certain characters, dialogues, or scenes that you've seen just mere hours ago.
Alex: "Wait, why is Anna sitting down with Detective Blake? She doesn't even know him."
Sam: "What are you talking about? She worked a case with him back in the second episode and he told her to come see him if she needs to discuss anything. I think you're suffering from binge-term memory loss."

You don't have enough memory in the memory card

A casual, subtle way of calling someone stupid, as they do not have enough memory in their memory card. Or, in other words, not enough memory in their brain.
Person 1: Does 2 + 2 = 5?
Person 2: You don't have enough memory in the memory card. Is your memory card set correctly?

Memory card

In terms of memory cards, there are many different types but they all do the same thing; store information. They just save your stuff. Whatever "your stuff" may be, pictures, music, documents, etc. It's just a small piece of plastic, with a tiny little computer part inside that knows how to keep your stuff when you tell it. Then, you can take that little card with you and use it on other computers and see the stuff that you saved.
Granted, if you've saved certain types of documents, like word processing or spreadsheets or any other type of document that was created with a specific type of software, before you can view it on another computer, you have to be sure that that software is installed on the next computer you use or else you wont' be able to open the document saved on your memory card.
If it's just pictures or certain types of music, then you should be fine. So just to sum it all up, a memory card just keeps your files safe for you and makes it possible for you to take those files with you where ever you go. Neat huh?!
