In case anyone didn't know what that actually is

- Maybe that's just me, but I only understood like 1 out of every 7 words in that article
  
  Ok ChatGPT, explain it for children:
  ChatGPT A preauricular sinus (PAuS) is like a tiny hole near your ear that you're born with. It can be on one side or both, and sometimes there can be more than one hole on one ear. People have known about these little holes for a long, long time, even before doctors named them. Some artists in the past, like Hieronymous Bosch, drew pictures of them. Doctors later called them preauricular sinuses.
  These little ear holes are special because they can be a part of different health conditions that some people have from birth. Think of them like a unique feature, just like how some people have freckles or dimples. So, in modern times, doctors see them as something interesting about a person's body, but they also check if they might be connected to any health issues.
  
  Fuck... that was pretty good
  
  I mean, how would we know if it wasn't? I also understood nothing in the article.

  Can I get updates on this gene daily?
  
  I'll take them too but only if something big happens
  
  I'm trying to wrap my head around "invagination". Like I'm pretty sure I get the general gist of the meaning, but it's really making me realize I don't think I know the etymology of the root word at all...
  
  A hole’s a hole.
  
  It's what the Volkswagen Auto Group calls it when you buy one of their cars.
- I assumed it was a scar from a failed forward helix piercing.
