3. Random Memory

Once when I was in elementary school my dad came to pick me up from soccer practice.  We crossed the playground as we walked to the car.  My dad said try to do a pull-up.  I hopped up and grabbed the bar, but that was as high off the ground as I went.  My dad walked up and said I'll help you.  As he said that I let go, and landed on his foot, in my cleats.  (It should also be noted I was a fat kid).
He didn't say anything, and I thought he was furious.  As an adult, I realized he was speechless as to not swear.
I asked him about that last year, and he had no memory of it, whatsoever. It's funny the things that stick with you, but don't with someone else.
