"Forget? You want me to forget? This mind does not forget. I haven’t forgotten a single thing since the day my mother stopped breast feeding me. It was a drizzly Tuesday."
(Season 2, Episode 1)
Not sure why a man who remembers every ephemeral detail since the year dot would need or want physical objects to remind him. But I suppose his eidetic memory was just another aspect of Sheldon's personality and original meticulous construction (like his routines, brilliance, self-sufficiency, interest in languages etc, germaphobia, distaste for romantic relationships...), so they're free to throw it away, and replace it with a completely arbitrary new trait that makes no sense given his personal history.
I haven't watched this show since Season 7, and it still manages to irk me. Remote irking!
Before the irk rises too greatly, let's enjoy another scene from that episode. And take a stress pill. As advocated by the HAL 9000...
