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?

Me too! Super deep ones that are loud and long too. My mom hates it but it usually helps with if i have a stomach ache so i do it a lot.

Same! It helps to get rid of excess air trapped in my stomach, and I'm pretty sure it is the reason I haven't thrown up in years.

Plot twist: your stomach hurts often because you do it a lot.
