Road Goggles

1. The condition where a weary and lonely business traveler sleeps with a woman he meets at a hotel bar.

2. The phenomenon where you sleep with a co-worker on a trip because you're out-of-town, jetlagged, and a little drunk from your business dinner.
"After five days on the road in three hotels, it was late and she seemed attractive enough. I woke up and realized, oh yeah, I was wearing my road goggles."

"She's not much to look at, but there wasn't much happening at the Hampton Inn on a Tuesday night, dude."

"Our flight was cancelled and we had dinner at the airport TGIFridays. After a plate of wings and two beers, it made sense to hook up."

Purdue Goggles

When you are surrounded by guys in class all day and as a result every female is much more attractive than usual.
"Dude she is at least an 8."
"No man she's definitely a six."
"You're right, I just got out of Engineering 270. I must be feeling the effects of Purdue Goggles."

wine goggles

Similar to beer goggles (which makes unattractive women attractive due to drinking beer), wine goggles make pretentious, ugly art attractive. This is why wine is almost always served at art shows and gallery openings.
Brad: "Buffy, why is this hideous thing hanging on the wall?!?"

Buffy: "I bought it at Harriet's gallery opening this weekend. I drank too way too much wine. It looked better last night."

Brad: "You had wine goggles on."

oakton goggles

Refers to a false and warped perception of work colleagues due to a scarcity of good looking people in the office. Symptoms of Oakton Goggles include viewing an unattractive colleague at work as quite good looking. An average looking person would appear outrageously good looking if you have Oakton Goggles on.
Sarah: “Hey did you see that really cute guy that was in the tea room before?”
Bec: “Oh you must have Oakton Goggles because he was NOT good looking!”
Both: “hehe”

retro goggles

The illusion of remembering things from earlier in life in a favorable manner, despite how awful or crappy it really was. Often times, it is the lack of appreciation for quality as a young child to cause this. We grow better taste and judgment as adults, changing our perception of things once liked.

Frequently used to reference older video games, sometimes movies or other media.
Guy: Dude, I LOVED Phantasy Star III as a kid! I remember having so much fun with it!

Dude: Yea, it may have been good at the time, but that is the dud of the series. Just try playing it NOW, it's just the retro goggles fooling you.
