dictionaryofobscuresorrows:

n. an embarrassing memory from middle school that slips back into your head from out of nowhere, a fault line in the crust of passing years—whose ever-thickening strata warp and buckle between the pressures of this week and a mantle of forgotten things two thousand miles deep—which is part of a theory on the evolution of the self known as cafeteria plate tectonics.
