Hey You, Prune Face! Try Smiling for a Change!

07.18.2023 by Fred Berman //

Ever wonder why your face resembles a casaba melon that missed its Botox injection?

It might be because you use only 17 muscles to smile but a whopping 43 muscles to frown.  Scientists have determined it takes roughly 2000 frowns to create one facial wrinkle.  And no doofus, although I may have occasionally used “alternate facts,” for comedic purposes, this one is true.  (Alternate facts is a term concocted by the pin-up girl from Gehenna, Kellyanne Conway (speaking of prune faces) to explain her puppet master’s lies).   So unless you want your mug shot to mirror a dehydrated ugli fruit, you might just help yourself keep that youthful appearance by smiling a little more. “A smile is a frown turned upside down…”  “If you smile you can forget all of your troubles for a while…”

***Editor’s Note: While the number 2,000 is a popular theory, there are other doctors that say the figure is closer to 200,000.  The important thing to remember here is nobody really gives a rat’s ass!
