Alcohol- induced amnesia

Short term memory loss caused by the consumption of large quantities of alcohol leading to the inebriated state of the individual and causing them to act in a manner that would be deemed 'socially inappropriate'. Individuals suffering from this condition usually experience feelings of alarm when presented with witness accounts or photographic evidence of their exploits.

United States of Amnesia

1). A term used to describe Americas uncanny ability to forget things that happened in the near past. Americans are known to make enemies of countries and people who were allies yesterday because "we" quickly forget.
The United States of Amnesia forgot that WE supplied Saddam Hussein with most of his weapons...we called him part of the Axis of Evil and tried to kill him for possibly using them...on US.

As they say, yesterdays friend is tomorrows enemy.

Amnesia: The Dark Descent

An awesome survival horror game that'll make you shit your pants extremely often. Made by Frictional Games. It uses custom interface with the objects, so when the player is running from the monster, he has to manually open and close the door just like IRL, and not like in Minecraft, where you right click and it closes immediately.
This sort of interface is also used on other items (chairs, tables, vases, boxes, barrels..). The gameplay is set in 1849, and the storyline is that you have to run away from this thing called the Shadow which can kill you over time, and in order to do so you need to destroy Alexander, who has the orbs which are in charge of the Shadow chasing you. Amnesia: The Dark Descent can also be A:TDD for short. It has a sequel named Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs.
Daniel: Hey man, are you past the Wine Cellar in Amnesia: the dark descent yet?
Grunt: Mmmmrph no
Daniel: AAAAAAAAAAA!
Grunt: ...
Grunt: what the fuck man

"It's my computer but I'm not sure what it's coming from!"
"Well, turn it off!"
"I have a serious medical condition. It's called browser window amnesia!"
"That's not serious, you just found it on urban dictionary."
"Urban dictionary is a the world's most respected source for neologisms."
