Any landline phone number I’ve ever had
Locker code from high school 20 years ago
Cashier code from my first job
So many song lyrics for years and years ago.
Anyone know why your brain can retain this random stuff and not important things you actually need right now?

Phone numbers - I remember our home phone number from 20 years ago.
I also remember really irrelevant things about people. To the point where I feel like I come across as creepy if people find out I remember something they told me ages ago so I don’t say anything and pretend that I did my know that about them.
