A person that looks good from a distance, but with a closer look (or via SQUINTING), is revealed to be much less attractive. Often confused with beergoggles, but is not a function of alcohol, only of unsatisfactory distance. First coined by John M. in 1998
I was at a club last night and saw this hottie across the dance floor. But when I was about 10 ft away from her, I saw she was a squinter so I bailed.

1. I have a shitload of work to do, because those damn squinter's can't do anything right.
2. If that damn squinter doesn't stop playing with his remote control cars, and start doing some work.....
