I do appreciate the first kind. I want to know what Lidl has on offer this week, but I don't care about searching their website about specific products.

I don't feel like I'm particularly harmed by forgetting cantaloup season. I don't generally forget that products exist if my life is actually improved by them in any meaningful way.

You know what I do forget? What I was doing before you decided to "remind" me of your shit product in the middle of me trying to complete a task.
