Biting your tongue and other minor failings of the human body.

Is it just me or is biting your tongue one of the most annoying things ever? That or biting the side of your mouth. There really should be some reflex that stops you from doing it.

Don't get me started on hiccups.

What minor things about the body irritate you?

My bloody appendix deciding to attempt to explode for no apparent reason!

Twice this week I’ve managed to choke myself to the point of vomiting.

On fresh air.

Seriously, I just breathed and triggered a choking fit! One of those times was at work, it’s ok I was only on the phone to my boss Hmm. So embarrassing and completely ridiculous.

Those inner ear itches are awful. So annoying.

Why is the hair on my head going white and the previously pale and invisible moustache hair going brown?
Also food/ drink and air pipes being next to each other is stupid.

The twitch that randomly get in the corner of your eye, you feel it and see it but can't stop it

Why is the ankle bone both sticking out and really painful if you bang it?

I stubbed my toe once, tripping over the cat, and my SIL said she didn't know I knew so many swear words! (Neither did I)

Yes biting your tongue is annoying, especially if you do it again!

FUCKING CHIN HAIRS! Yes Indeedy!

Verrucas. Just. Fuck. Off.

And yes, biting your tongue/cheek. I bit my cheek last week when I had an ulcer just there. I swear it targets existing sources of pain and wonders how the level of pain can be ramped up quickly and effectively.

I feel like our Creator did well at boobs and rested on his laurels and stopped trying. Probably playing with the boobs.

Ugh don't talk to me about verrucas @acatcalledjohn, I once had a bastard on my toe that took THREE YEARS to go away!

acatcalledjohn · 11/10/2019 16:11

That's nothing. I've had mine for over a decade Envy

LittleSweet · 11/10/2019 17:59

This is an ugly boast, but I had a verucca for 16 years. I managed to get rid of it this year!😳

Pins and needles. Nightmares. Ears popping on planes. Losing sense of taste during a cold. Sweat. I’m such an uncomfortable human being.
