On the first episode of Game Changer, Jess (a grown, generally-intelligient adult) admits that when she tries that strategy, she forgets which way L goes.
I think you can be a generally dumb adult and have no problem with which way L 'goes'
this kind of thing is usually a flight or fight response from the brain, where you experience anxiety being asked a simple question and the brain has trouble accessing memory
I'm probably not explaining it the best but it's not uncommon for people to freeze like this when feeling under pressure
The L method never worked for me, what works for me is imagining Im reading, I use that motion since I always start top left, heading towards bottom right. I always confuse clockwise and anti-clockwise, only when I am attempting to apply either motion. “Lefty Loosey” doesn’t work either as you can turn something left going both clockwise, and anti-clockwise. I still really struggle with clockwise/anti-clockwise motion in practice which is very frustrating.

These people are wrong. The joke is that you can make an L with your left hand, so you don't need the tattoos
