chamnesia
The mental phenomenon of forgetting what horrible task a towel or cloth (or chamois) was used for before the current use.
When I shower, I am mindful to finish using the washcloth on my face before I wash my nethers. Thanks to a healthy dose of chamnesia, I will start out with that same cloth on my face the next time I wash up.
Dry off dishes with a kitchen towel that was previously used to clean up a puppy mess? No problem with a run through the laundry and a little chamnesia.
