If there was a pill or procedure that could target and erase specific memories with no side effects, would you like to make use of it? You could pick as many memories as you like or even whole time periods of your life.

Yess... when I was 6 my parents had sex in the same room I was sleeping. I think it went on for hours...and I was too afraid to make a noise or even run away. I was completely aware what was hapening though. In the morning I wanted to make my mom feel embarased and I asked her what was it they were doing, and she answered: " oh, I couldn't sleep so i decited to do some gymnastics in bed and...oh, I used your dad as a blanket"
I think after this idiotic explanation I hated her and my father with a true rage for years.
Hmm there's also a few nightmares that I'd like to get out of my memories...
Yes, I vote in favor of the pill!
yeah, but wouldn't it be great if it worked like an insertable memory stick or something. That if you wanted to be reminded you could re-visit it again?
Yeah that sure would be awesome. That changes is =D. Just get a secret box with memory sticks in it with your erased memories.
Oo but if that is the case wouldn't everyone be capable of using your memories? Maybe you killed someone and erased that part and someone takes your stick and inserts it in his/her mind! Hmm we have to find a better plan xD!
Nope. No matter how bad the memories are, they're all important. "We are but a sum of our memories."
i wish i could erase the bad parts of my childhood. Nobody should have to be abused, and unfortuantely, i remember almost every bit of it. Funny, the good parts i forget, but the bad parts are with me still...
I'd love to forget a lot of stuff. But then again, all my memories made me the person I am today. Memories are meant to happen, good or bad.
Yes, I'd love to erase my memory of seeing the video called "Something" by that guy called cyriak on YouTube. A horrific experience that still haunts me (thanks a lot whoever posted that IIN question!)
I wish I could erase the past three years of my life there's a lot of pain and people I'd like to forget they can put people on the moon yet they've yet to create a device to wipe specific memories damn !
