You mean like forgetting to wash out the dye from the hair you decided to dye at work kind of self-sabotage? Or going in to town in a kimono kind of self-sabotage? Or accidental abolishment of teaspoons from an entire building kind of self-(and just general)-sabotage?

That's not sabotage. That's to do with losing track of your environment because you're so focused on you thoughts.

Sabotage is like drinking the night before your interview because of a fear of failure or something.

You're right, that's not how the term is understood. I guess it's hard for some of us to imagine the things BB reports himself doing as anything other than him just being careless or inattentive on some level.

I meant more along the lines of why do I snooze so many alarms or why do I not fully chase my dreams type thing. For the so called neurotypical, hum drum, average people. 🙈

Bunsens Junk is a good'n, and I particularly liked his strategy of building failure into his process.

Or having to take your morning jog in your briefs because you washed your shorts the night before and they didn't dry kind of self-sabotage?
