I had a really good idea but got sidetracked and forgot it.

I feel like it was something to do with squeegees, or maybe the Beegees? Perhaps related to Archimedes or old spindles of CDs? I wish I could remember but I was distracted by freebies – a full basket of ripe kiwis.

Don't you hate it when that happens? I wish I could just write some code to retrieve stuff when it falls out of my short-term memory.

Imaginary Code

return collect($garbage)
    ->pluck('forgotten')
    ->where('value', '=', 'high');

Wouldn't it be nice if that worked?
