Wikipedia defines a brain fart as: slang for a kind of abnormal brain activity which results in human error while performing a repetitive task or more generally denoting a degree of mental laxity or any task-related forgetfulness, such as forgetting how to hold a fork.
The term itself may be derived from "brain infarction," a medical term describing some form of stroke.

If our brains were really like computers, we could say the memory was full and the data was lost due to a lack of storage space. But since humans only use about 10-percent of their brain capacity, I won't use that excuse.
According to Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Denis Gauthier a brain fart occurs when one "momentarily loses his sense of logic…and does something 'dumb'."
Sometimes brain farts occur when your brilliant thought is momentarily interrupted and it becomes lost forever.
