I will never ever forget this color name and the story behind it for the rest of my life.

I had read about it in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34186932 (or some other earlier HN submission) and had since forgotten it. I wouldn’t be surprised to forget about it again.

It would be nicer if you could forget to be inconsiderate next time.

I only meant to point out that things might not go as expected, despite how emotionally impactful it might seem in the moment.

Of course people forget things, but as the other commenter mentioned, I think you are bringing unnecessary logic to what is an emotional subject and response. Which as they say, makes you come across as a jerk while bringing no value to the conversation.
