          However—




          1. We don't use reminiscence in the sense you appear to intend.



            A reminiscence is an act of remembering (or perhaps even more often an act of narrating), not the object of the act, the thing or matter which is remembered.



            It is acceptable to speak of the object as a memory, but properly it is a memory of [the object].




            A memory I will always cherish is that of the days . . .




            But in the presence of forget, either reminiscence or memory is pretty much piling on redundancy. It's much simpler and more natural to say




            I will never forget the days . . .

          • So, OP's sentence is basically saying that he'll never forget the time he sat around remembering the days he started noticing her. Which, I'm guessing, is probably not what he intended to say.

          One-line joke

          A one-liner is a joke that is delivered in a single line. A good one-liner is said to be pithy - concise and meaningful. [1] Comedians and actors use this comedic method as part of their act, e.g. Jimmy Carr, Tommy Cooper, Rodney Dangerfield, Norm Macdonald, Ken Dodd, Stewart Francis, Zach Galifianakis, Mitch Hedberg, Anthony Jeselnik, Milton Jones, Shappi Khorsandi, Jay London, Mark Linn-Baker, Demetri Martin, Groucho Marx, Dan Mintz, Emo Philips, Tim Vine, Steven Wright and Henny Youngman and Arnold Schwarzenegger. [ citation needed ] Many fictional characters are also known to deliver one-liners, including James Bond, who usually includes pithy and laconic quips after disposing of a villain. [ citation needed ] Examples "A baby seal walks into a club." "A dyslexic man walks into a bra." (Anonymous) "There are three types of people, those who can count and those who can't." "Venison's dear, isn't it?" (Jimmy Carr) "An escala...
