A Spanish slang phrase that means 'to forget something quickly'. It originates from the belief that goldfish have very short memories, hence the phrase 'forget about the goldfish', implying that someone has forgotten something as quickly as a goldfish would.
Examples
- Spanish: Juan siempre se olvida de los peces de color, no recordaba que hoy teníamos una reunión importante.
- English: Juan always forgets about the goldfish, he didn't remember that we had an important meeting today.
