Noun: Alcohol. A drink which, if consumed in sufficient quantities makes you forget large episodes of your life. A popular phrase due to its assonance with the patent medicine 'Milk of Magnesia'.
"...and while dancing you unzipped her dress and pulled it to the floor. Then you pissed in the bride's champagne glass and honked up all over the cake."
"Yes, I remember every bit of that. Just tell me how come I woke up this morning in the driver's seat of my car outside my house?"
"Put it down to the milk of amnesia."

Input amnesia is a ux design term. It is when a user makes a wrong input due to being accustomed to a similar apparatus they were just using or are familiar with. Consider some examples.
- Pressing the wrong button in a video game because a previous game you played uses that bottom for the desired function. In Skyrim, players sometimes accidentally steal/pick up items because the A/X button (used to pick up items) in other video games is often used to jump.
- A manual driver accidentally reaching for the stick shift in an automatic car.
Being aware of input amnesia helps designers make better designs.

"Sometimes I use my key fob that opens my Acura for Honda. My Honda doesn't open with a key fob. I am standing there pressing my Acura's unlock bottom instantly realizing I am a klutz. This example of input amnesia is caused by me being used to similar input but by habit choosing a wrong one".

The phenomenon where a muslim will say "Bismillah" before eating and then a few seconds later will forget they even said it and question themselves if they saif "Bismillah". The muslim will then say "Bismillah Fi Awwalihi Wa Akhirih". Then the process will repeat until they are sure they said "Bismillah" in some form.
-Bismillah
-Bismillah
-Wait, did i say Bismillah before eating?
-Yes, you did.
-Ok, thanks. I got a real problem with muslim amnesia.

Not being able to remember many things during summer vacation, even the simpliest of things such as distinguishing from left and right and not knowing what day it is or the date. Usually wears off when school starts.
Sally: *puts a picture on Instagram with #ThrowBackThursday*
Angelica: *comments* Today is not Thursday, it's Monday.
Sally: Oh my gosh, I've been diagnosed with summer amnesia!
