Cosmetic Effect of Distance/Darkness/Drunkenness/Desperation. A very versatile expression, used to explain away why you slept with that butt ugly dude/girl you just saw walking down the street.
ZOMG, I can't believe I made out with that guy. Total C.E.D. I guess I should calm myself with those tequila shots from now on.
