Repetitive Familiarity Amnesia 

The inability to remember if you did something you do every day.
Every morning when you leave the house, you push the button on the garage door remote closing the garage door. Then 10 minutes later, you can’t recall if you closed the garage door because you do the exact same action at the exact same time every morning, so they all blend together and you couldn’t tell if your memory was from that morning or any of the previous mornings where you went through the same motions like you have countless times before. You just experienced Repetitive Familiarity Amnesia.

I owe you an apology. I was not familiar with your game 

A fraze once made popular by NBA Legend Shaquille O'Neil reacting to a surprisingly good performance by a current NBA Player that he never thought was able to put on the court, undermining his class up until this very point in time.

This term is now commonly used to describing a situation in which an individual (mostly male) acknowledges the fact that a (female) has been attractive and he just never noticed or was blind to this fact for other reasons, leading him to apologize using the infamous inside joke.
1. Shaq: Christian Wood I wan't to apologize, I wasn't familiar with your game and-
Wood: Aw man, you're a casual!

2. Dude: Gyatt, Sandra that booty phaaat. You been hitting the Gym lately?
Sandra: What? My booty been fat ever since, where have you been?

Dude: Oh okay, I see you now though. I owe you an apology. I was not familiar with your game.

Facebook Familiar 

Someone you see at a bar or a club who looks really familiar but you can't quite remember how you know them or where from. As the night progresses you realize you may be friends with them on facebook or have just seen them in pictures on facebook because you are that creepy person who looks at everyone's photos and profiles.
"Dude that girl looks really familiar but I can't remember where I know her from."

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah, shes probably just Facebook Familiar"
