I also have the brain of an elephant.

It's in a jar on my desk...

I'm not allowed back at the zoo...

.......I feel dumb. I don't get it.

There is an idea or saying that elephants never forget or that they have very good memories First article in google about this.

So to say you have a memory of an elephant could mean your memory is very good.

The twist is that this can also mean you remember seeing an elephant, which is what the second line implies.

Oooooooooh. Ok. Confirmed. K. Am dumb. I even knew about the elephants memory from a pbs documentary I watched 10 years ago. Still didn't put that together. Instead of putting 2 and 2 together and getting 4, I put 2 and null together, and got error.
