Patrick /ˈpætɹɪk/, v. where a person performs an action repeatedly that exhibits a severe lack of short-term memory retention. Named after the index case, Patrick Star of Spongebob Squarepants fame, where Mr. Star's repertoire included many such actions, including "That's not my wallet", where the person agrees to every indicia of an original point, while disagreeing on face with the original point; or "I'm going to eat mine now!", wherein the person forgets they consumed an item in full, and then makes an attempt to eat the item again. This is an effective debate tactic, because the person operating from this position completely believes (or is presumed to completely believe) what it is they are saying and doing, complicating a good-faith discussion.
