Little Tiny Mouths

When I was a kid my Dad would sometimes buy the meat that was on special in the commissary, this would lead to meals of pork chops we were convinced had been cut with dynamite rather than knives and meals of meat sometime so tough that you chewed on it longer than you chewed on bubblegum. We were pleased with the tough chewy meat because we read in the paper that human mouths were going to get tiny because everything was now so easy to eat and my sister and I didn’t want little tiny mouths like the ones they had in the news story. Well, thirty some odd years later I was reading the Telegraph and saw a story about what humans will be like in the future and guess what, tiny mouths are back! I think tiny mouths are the new black. Now I am off to the grocery store to buy some discount meat to prevent my child’s mouth from shriveling up.

    I like the part about females becoming hairless - but no mention of the males. Wouldn’t it be kind of a trend for both? Will it be due to cross-breeding with chihuahuas?

    The net result may be people wearing skimpy clothing and cones of fat on their heads to melt down & moisturize. This is sounding familiar…

    We got very good at marinating and tenderizing beef, though! Handy skills for a BBQ King.

    As for the outlook for our genetic future? We should be so lucky! With the environmental and societal stresses, I’m not worried about humans 100,000 years from now. Cockroaches, maybe.

    Is this to imply that Michael Jackson was just stealing a march on the rest of us with his “I wanna be an Anime,” look?
