Please don't ping me UvU

Strange things your body does that you assume everyone has/does too but then when you mention it to someone else, they're like ??? That doesn't happen to me

So. Any 'weird' things?

I suck in air into my stomach when I yawn. I can't stop this happening, it just happens but sounds like I'm burping :/

I can move my pinky toes independantly. And also put my pinky toe and big toe down on the floor, whilst lifting the middle three up in the air.

When I swallow, like just swallow without anything in my mouth, my ears pop, they also pop when I yawn

If looking at a smart board in school, or certain lights in low lighting, when I move my eyes, the light splits into the red/blue/green colours for like split seconds it's really weird. I mentioned this to my mum and she was like?? The heck? Lol

My knees go red and really hot randomly sometimes as do my arms. Most of the time it happens when I'm too hot, but others it's random

My back get like prickly and stingy when I'm too hot (particularly when I panic or get really embarrassed lmao)


After reading through more of these (I'm surprised this thread is still going, lol) these things I do too:

I can blur my vision whenever I like (blur as in, everything goes fuzzy, as if you've not got your glasses on!) i can do it so i can't properly make out some objects

Also, to do with eyes, I can 'vibrate' my eyes. Like, move them really quickly side to side. It's really funny cause it freaks people out so much haha



Please keep your own sharings to the FR forum rules, lol.


Edit:
Wow after reading through these, a lot of things others have mentioned I do to :0

It's kinda comforting that I'm not the only one haha

@Reefknot
My body likes making weird noises when I'm in a particular quiet and public place. Like my stomach growls loudly, or... yeah.

I have different sized pupils, and the size difference becomes more pronounced in certain lights and looks really weird.

My ankle clicks when I walk. Not all the time, but a lot. My brother has it too; it's actually really helpful in identifying who is walking up the stairs when I'm visiting home.

When I keep one eye closed or covered too long and then look through both, everything is tinted red in one eye and blue in the other like pale 3D glasses. Apparently this might be fairly common.

My legs twitch sometimes. But it isn't my actually muscles, it's inside my leg. It is so hard to explain, but it feels like bubbling? I don't know why, my mom, who is a nurse, doesn't either. It may have something to do with the fact that I have spider veins, but I have no clue.

I can do that too. Very handy when you're changing elevations!

My vision will flood with bright, multi-colored lights (like if you rub your eyes too hard) for a while. I also have monkey toes - I can pick things up (my husband thinks its hilarious) and I can also spread my toes out like a curved fan.

hmm i haven't mentioned much of my body Doing Things to others so i don't know what would be weird and what not,,,,
although i've noticed that my rib cage isn't exactly symmetrical, the right part seems a bit sunk in when comparing it to the left (under the breast) ... idk if it's common or not, haven't compared others' rib cages to mine really

+ my ears click when i simply swallow and yawn also
+ in certain conditions everything thru one eye is tinted differently from the other eye for me as well, so i guess it could be pretty common indeed

I can pop my ears at will, just by moving my jaw a certain way. I can't really explain it, but it's super helpful on airplanes.

I'm able to dilate my pupils on command (it's only a very slight change, but when I do it everything gets fuzzy and unfocused). I can also rapidly shake my eyes back and forth, which most people find unnerving. In order to two this I have to concentrate on something, and I'm not quite sure what happens to make my eyes shake but I'm somehow able to do it. I can also flip my tongue upside down.
Involuntarily, there's not much I do. My shoulders and ankles pop sometimes, but nothing extraordinary.

@Tacodoodle
I can dilate my eyes at will as well, though I seem to have a bit of trouble crossing them.

I'm not really sure how uncommon this is, but my dad noticed me doing it and was a bit concerned. Basically, especially when there's music on that I like, I essentially flex the muscles in the backs of my legs. It's something that I do all the time (I'm doing it as I type this, actually), and I've done for as long as I can remember. I have a bit of a problem sitting still, too, so it helps get out some small amount of stress as well.
(When I'm not doing it, I often randomly get the urge to start doing it again. I just rapidly seem to lift/contract the muscles in my legs, specifically the calves. I don't have any real trick to it, it just happens)
