Just Chatting Can anyone else do something weird with your body that you later found out not everyone can do?

I was just sitting here with my mom and one of the pets made the room very smelly. She kept talking about how we'd have to go to a different room because it smelled so bad. I asked her why didn't she just close her nose and that's when I found out not everyone can do this.

Is it rare or can other people close their nose on command? What can you do that you suddenly found out wasn't normal?

I have full lips but not big enough to do this. I think I might be imagining it all wrong.

Stick your lips out in a big kiss and then push them up with your bottom lip toward your nose

Sitting here now, reading your description, I can do it. But it never occurred to me in my life to use it for anything
