Scientists Finally Figure Out The Cause Of Beer Goggles

 

Thank God there are scientists out there who don't waste their time trying to cure cancer or fix global warming . . . and are actually focused on IMPORTANT things.

 

 

--Like this team at Roehampton University in London, who just came up with a scientific explanation for . . . BEER GOGGLES.

 

 

--According to Lewis Halsey, who led the study, the reason that less attractive people start looking better with every beer is because alcohol DULLS your ability to recognize symmetry.

 

 

--Humans tend to prefer faces that are SYMMETRICAL . . . it's our biological instinct, because symmetry is a sign of strong genes.  With more alcohol, you can't detect symmetry as well, so people with asymmetrical faces look better.
