I do not understand this meme.

I recently found this video which put an issue I have in better words than I could have ever put them in myself. I shared it with someone to explain how I experience certain things and they proceeded to make this funny adaptation of the ADHD version posted recently. Hope this gives the context/explanation you needed.
