Arguing Semantics

Actual conversation while camping:
Him: Thanks for the show you gave us while getting ice from the store.
Me: There was barely any ice in the container! I had no choice but to lean over real far to get ice bags.
Her: It was funny watching you stumble off that step. You totally forgot it was there.
Me: I did not forget! I just didn’t know it was there!
Her: You had to know it was there, you stepped up it to get the ice in the first place.
Me: Well, I just didn’t remember it was there.
Her: So, would you say you forgot then?
Me: (chagrined) Oh. Yeah, I forgot.
