Beer goggles explainedPresumably having been stung by the phenomenon of
going to bed with an apparently gorgeous beauty only to wake up with Maureen
from the typing pool, a group of scientists have come up with a mathematical
formula to explain the euphemistically named ‘beer goggles’ effect.
Interestingly, the research was funded by a major contact lens manufacturer and
found that poor eyesight in a dimly lit room had roughly the same effect as four
pints of lager—a fact the sponsors would presumably like to exploit in an
effort to sell more contact lenses (I can't wait to see the TV commercials for
that one!).
Those crazy scientists really crack me up.
