Maybe its not your brain but you? Why do you remember the bad and forget the good?

Here’s a weird take on this, is there some evolutionary reason for this?

the brain typically remembers things associated with strong emotional reactions, esp. negative reactions, presumably in order to remember your mistakes and not do them again.

Exactly. So it’s sad that the positive things don’t feature more strongly in our memories, just like the OP meme suggests.

I always find comfort seeing memes like this and seeing that so many of us experience the exact same pains. It might sound obvious or stupid to others, but I’ve lived so “in my own head” for so long that it’s easy to forget that actually, we’re all capable of massively putting our foot in our mouths at times – and more importantly, the cringe mistakes and faux pas of other people generally don’t get chiseled into our brains in the way our own moments do.
