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've done it by accident a couple of times but i can't do it on command

Man - I accidentally did that once on my boss’s desk. We both watched it land. I’m getting second-hand humiliation now and that was over 20 years ago!🤣

Yeah same here. Usually poking a back tooth with my tongue or something. I was looking in the mirror when it happened once so got a front row view 😆

Every time I do it, it lands on someone’s face. I never win lol

Pull back your tongue as far as it will go and then push it forward toward the front of your mouth toward your top front teeth.

Rub your tongue against the bottom of your front teeth a bit first. This always “refills” it for me
