Hah, yes, that's exactly the kind of thing I was thinking of. I've also heard the imperative "please forget me" with [the Canto equivalent of] 了, 忘記[了]我... I assume you could do the same thing with 了 in Mandarin...

*checks off the box* yup! 忘了他, 忘了吧, et cetera… probably the subject of many an angsty song (删了吧 definitely is a song title at least)

Oh, that's what you were already saying before, "in the kinds of dramas I don't watch." *facepalm* I didn't recognize it without 记 and was mixing it up with another character. Well, maybe I won't forget it now. >_>
