Some People Look Better in Masks

December 15, 2020. My dad and I are sitting in a Sloan Kettering waiting room about to meet with my dad's oncologist. We are both wearing masks, as required.

Dad: "You know, the mask suits you."

Me: "Oh?"

Dad: "Yes. It shows the attractive part of your face."

Me: "Thanks. I'll wear it more often."

Wait. There’s an unattractive part of my face? Oh well.
