Compensation Culture


There's a bit of irony in the human body - as you get older, your ears continue to grow, thereby theoretically giving you better hearing; however, you slowly go deaf too. I suppose it could be evolutionary compensation at work.

That's what must be slowing me down, all that extra ear resistance.. (and WTF is all that sprouting ear-hair about?)

It is of little use if, like me, you have no bloody hearing in the first place. Ever enlarging ears are like having a giant appendix as far as I am concerned.
