BuzzFeed – In r/AskReddit, when someone asked, “What is a little quirk about your body that you don’t think other people have?” the answers that rolled in were proof of that — and they weren’t your typical double-jointed answers, either. Here’s what people had to say:
1. “I’m literally hard-headed. I have no frontal sinuses, and where they should be is just bone. I never get sinus headaches.”

2. “I’m not colorblind in [either] of my eyes, but I do see colors differently in both of them. My right eye sees colors more warmly and a little desaturated, whereas I see more vibrant and cold tones through my left eye.”

3. “When I laugh in a swimming pool, I start to drown. On holiday, I was swimming, and my partner kept making me laugh. The second I start laughing, I sink like a stone. It would be a great way to murder me if he ever decided to do so.”
—Ms_Central_Perk
4. “I made it to 30 years old before this was noticed and pointed out to me. I was chugging water at dinner when my husband started laughing and asked, “Why are you doing that?” It turns out that when I swallow, one eyebrow rapidly twitches, but completely uncontrollably. Like my swallow reflex is hardwired to my eyebrow. It’s now my party trick.”

5. “Sometimes when I laugh or cry, I completely lose motor function in my hands, and they’re essentially useless clubs for the next five minutes until I calm down. It’s apparently a neurological thing associated with narcolepsy…but I’m not narcoleptic. This is called cataplexy …”

6. “My kidneys are attached to each other. I found out in a scan. It’s called a horseshoe kidney, apparently.”
—TPrice1616
7. “I can vomit at any time just with the power of my mind. When I was a kid, if I didn’t get my way, regardless of where I was, I would just start vomiting. One day, my grandma slapped the shit out of me in a K-Mart, and I never did it again.”
