Not a thing I can, but I once knew a person who could make their eyes go anti-crosseyed, as in left eye looking far left, right eye looking far right, away from their nose.

I can fold my ears twice - so from the top of my ear I fold it towards the bottom of my ear and at the point where it folds I can fold it again across over the first fold.

I can bend my knees backwards by, like, 20°.

We have a couple things that run in the family. All men in my direct family (so me, my dad and my brother) can twist our mouths in both directions at once, so upper lip one side lower lip the other side, looks funky. We can also do eyebrow dances with moving only single eyebrows but I think that's more common.

I can make my right arm vibrate by tensing up the muscles in my forearm. I dont me shake really fast. I mean vibrate.like, fast.

Outside of beating my brothers on specific mario party mini games that require repeatedly pressing a single button (or other games that have that use mechanic) or unlocking the cheats in bomberman 64 (needed a turbo controller to hit start repeatedly on the main menu) its pretty damn useless.

There was one Mario Party mini game (i think called domination) where you had to hit A as fast as possible, with each press making a thwomp or "domino" appear in a line. At the end, they all fall down, and you see whose line is the longest.

Some people couldn't reach the finish line. Some could just about get past it. Mine just kept going and going.

Otherwise, totally useless.

I can blow air out of my tear duct. Really useful for clearing it out.

[–] TheFish@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Wait .. when or why would you need to clear it out?

[–] JigglySackles@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

You know how you can end up with crusties in your eyes in the morning? Well that gunk comes partly from your tear ducts and drys there. So sometimes when I blow them out I get some light white mucus as well as tears. When it's really full it will make tiny bubbles. Lol and it whistles a little so people in the same room can hear it.

Also as a party gag. Lol
