Your face could freeze like that…

fashion-tongue-160.jpgHere is an uplifting, inspirational story. When children  make grotesque faces, all parents say: “Your face could freeze like that. It happened to a girl I read about today in the paper.”

Well, who knew? There really is a condition called “Ugly Frozen Face.” I know, because I read about it today in the paper. A victim of this syndrome, a plucky lass named Tiffany, battled her way up to  model in a major fashion show. The audience cheered her wildly. 

The thing is, she wore such repulsive designs that nobody even noticed her face! Backstage, our gullible Tiffany said, “I’m taking off this gross piece of barf outfit before it freezes to my body. That happened to a model I read about today in the paper.”
