Fair question, I guess it just depends on how I feel that day and whether or not it's even worth engaging with even myself about it rather than expunge the dumb thought from existance. I don't necessarily forget it, but the feels linger if I leave it hanging, and I only get so much time on this planet.

I guess it's just easier to delete it and move on with my life and the next time I come across the thought I approach it differently for everyone's sake.

I like to think I'm okay with being wrong, but just like every interaction, it goes smoother if I don't need to backtrack and regain the trust of my interlocutor. Mulling on it myself instead of with someone I've already pissed off is probably more productive. I guess that's also part of the learning curve.
