    In a mask, no one can see your hideous zit.

    Did you just mutter something under your breath?  No, that was just my mask stretching.

    Keeps your face warm on cold days.

      I agree. Even though it doesn’t get as cold here in Southern California as it does where you are, cold weather is still cold weather. Summer has just ended and winter is moving in, so I’ve appreciated the face mask if for no other weather-related reasons, the way it keeps the wind off of the skin, mouth, lips, and cheeks.

    Denture wearers go outside with no teeth in their mouth.

    Can't smell someone's bottom burps or halitosis.

    I don't need to check my teeth for broccoli.
