I don’t need Science ! Anecdotally, I have concluded that hair follicles in and around ears, brows and nose, SUCK out my youngness, and convert it into local hyper growth - or perhaps some local time-dilation where time speeds up ! It might even be Alien Probes - I mean, who says lizards prefer rectums ?!

Thank ketchup that they haven’t sucked out my sanity yet !!
