Riddle Vision 

A widespread and contagious ailment found in male students attending Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. This illness is more apparent in the Prescott, Arizona campus. The condition usually starts at the moment the male student steps foot on campus. The interpretation and standards regarding the physical attractiveness in women drops dramatically, causing every female individual to be “hot”, “cute”, "good looking", or "not bad".

For example, prior to “Riddle Vision”, a female is rated 5/10 in attractiveness. When “Riddle Vision” is present, the same female is rated 10/10. This condition explains the reasoning why all Embry-Riddle male students are extremely horny and ERAU female students take full advantage of this by using extreme pimpette skills.

Riddle Vision 

“Riddle Vision” is a term used to describe male Embry Riddle students who think unattractive females are 10s, when in reality they are well below average. The term emphasizes the desperation of the male population at Embry Riddle, because of the significant male to female ratio (4:1).

Riddle Vision 

A disease that runs rampant at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. The main symptom is thinking that bland or ugly girls are "hot." Whilst males of different backgrounds, races, and personalities may suffer from the disease, it is most common in the typical dorky, ROTC, aviation obsessed, preppy, WASP students that attend ERAU.
Damn, that chunky, greasy girl is looking hot as fuck. Wait a second. I must have.... *GASP* RIDDLE VISION!

It is said of the situation where a person has the bad luck to make contact with his testicles against an undefined surface or object, intentioned or not.
Given the nature of the word, it is more appropriate to design cases where the interaction is made with a moving object, for example, a ball.
Although it is extremely painful for the victim, it tends to be considerably funny to people who witness it.
Today in the baseball game the pitcher took a nutshot; the baseball hit him in the nuts.

Man, I just watched the funniest nutshot video ever.
