Brain-weight

When there's something you learned a long time ago, but can't remember how to do it because you haven't done it for so long. It's like a muscle you haven't been exercising or flexing so you must have put on Brain Weight.

I can't believe I forgot how to to do long division - I must be putting on brain-weight!
