That depends. I don't "remember" any of my passwords because I use a software program to randomly generate them as I need them and them store them for me. Occasionally, my password manager doesn't prompt me to save this new password and by the time I realize it, my clipboard has forgotten it or I've filled it with something else.

More than once, the first thing I've done after confirming a new account via email is reset my forgotten password. Am I guilty if I didn't bother to reset it right away?
