premember 

To foretell - accurately.
A regular verb.
Just as remember is in the past - after an event looking back, so premember is something you do before an event, looking ahead.
Just as the French have a phrase 'deja vu' we English use premember; so - "Shall we premember the score of tonight's big match?"
or
"There he sits, premembering his order at the chip shop."
"Yeah, and I'll have a large cod with vinegar, no salt; d'you reckon he'll premember that?"

premember 

A mental exercise to prepare your brain so that you remember something in the future.
Clark premembered to turn down the heat when he got home later that evening so he'd be able to sleep well.

Is that how you remember it? 

Is that how you remember it? — a statement designed to call into question the projected memories of a person waxing poetic about the past. It’s another way of saying: HELL NAW!!!!!!!! It wasn’t that way at all!!!!!! The ethos of “Is that how you remember it?” Is best captured by The Doobie Brothers song featuring Michael McDonald on lead vocals What a Fool Believes — which was an awesome song.

And yes! That’s how I remember it!
Lover #1 when we were together we were both happy. No matter where we went out to eat, it seemed as though they were always playing our song. I never knew love before I met you!

Lover #2 Is that how you remember it?

Rich and successful person: The “come up” is the best part. Maaaaaaaaaaaan! I think I was happier when I was in the struggle and every day was a scramble. At least I knew who I was and who to trust.

Most loyal old true friend: Is that how you remember it?

Nope don’t remember didn’t happen 

When the person you had a bonding moment with isn’t ready to accept they have feelings for you so they deny you cradling them in your arms.
“We had a bonding moment! I CRADLED YOU IN MY ARMS!” “nope don’t remember didn’t happen”

remember the fam, carry the pain 

An unexpectedly deep phrase that was made by CaryKH's rapping AI.

I remember when 

The 'I remember when' law states that if a person posts a picture of their child/grandchild/pet on social media then at least 50% of the replies to the post will be made up with people talking about their child/grandchild/pet.
"Here is a picture of little Maude taking a shit on the kitchen floor"
"Oh that's so cute; George does this all the time"
"They grow up so fast don't they? I remember when Alfie used to shit in the garage before bedtime"

Remember, no russian

If you hear someone shout this at an airport, act dead
Remember, No russian * elevetor opens* *people screaming their last screams as people are getting shot up by a M249 Saw*
