معنی
I forgot.
زمینه فرهنگی
There is a superstition that if you forget something and have to go back home, you must look in a mirror and show your tongue to 'trick' the bad luck. In schools, teachers often sarcastically ask students who forget their homework: 'А голову ты дома не забыл?' (And did you not forget your head at home?). This plays on the same 'head/memory' connection. The 'absent-minded professor' (человек рассеянный) is a common trope in Russian children's poetry, specifically by Samuil Marshak, where things are constantly 'flying out' of the character's head. On Russian social media (VK, Telegram), 'вылетело из головы' is often used with memes of birds or empty loading bars to describe 'brain lag' during exams.
Use with 'совсем'
Adding 'совсем' (completely) makes you sound much more like a native speaker: 'Совсем вылетело из головы!'
Gender Agreement
Even if the thing you forgot is masculine (like 'пароль'), the verb is usually kept in the neuter 'вылетело' if you start the sentence with 'У меня...'

The 'Oh!' factor
Always start the phrase with 'Ой!' or 'Ах!' to convey that sudden realization of forgetting.
Polite Apology
In Russia, this is considered a very 'soft' and polite way to admit a mistake without sounding incompetent.
