The loss of the ability to show up in Los Angeles by the decree of nefarious actors and as the result of some type of urban street law violation (as in the movie Pulp Fiction) is one use of this phrase; more generally it can also refer to a loss of any nature due to bad behavior.
My kids are incorrigible which is typical for little kids “I told my little girl last weekend that if she continued to sass me she was going to lose her L.A. Privileges”. The potential loss of L.A. Privileges got her attention.

1. When you know how to do something really well, but when you try to show people you suddenly can't seem to do it.
2. When you can do something without thinking about it, but when you consciously engage in said activity, you constantly fail at it.

I tried to show off to my friends how well I could ice skate, but I was struck by an acute case of muscle memory-loss and I fell on my ass. They wouldn't believe that I was ever good at it afterwards.

A very common disorder where double doors become one in a person's mind. If there is a double door and only one of the doors is open, instead of opening the other door a person will try to fit through the one open side, often resulting in an awkward person to person traffic jam.
Gomi: Fuck I just suffered from Loss of Door Syndrome and ran into my crush
Derek: Why didn't you just open the other door? Stop being lazy and ratesque, it's a double door for a reason you pack rat.

Any of several surgical procedures designed to produce substantial weight reduction in obese patients refractory to conventional measures.
Current options for weight loss surgery include the following:
1. Gastric bypass, in which the esophagus is essentially connected directly to the small intestine. This reduces caloric intake at the expense of considerable potential adverse effects.
2.Gastric banding, also referrred to as bariatric surgery, compresses the stomach by means of an external mechanical device. Appetite and capacity are reduced resulting in gradual weight loss.
3.Above-knee amputation produces weight reduction in a biphasic pattern. The immediate post-operative drop is supplemented by a long-term increase in caloric expenditure derived from hopping.
