Why does no one talk about…

[crabsaremisunderstood]

… that thing when you yawn/talk and then a stream of saliva randomly squirts out?

It’s happened to me forever and I’ve seen it happen to other people, yet it’s never been discussed, so just giving it its spotlight here. Does it have a name? 🤩

Any other weird undiscussed body reflexes also welcome on this thread!!

No idea what you're talking about.

Hahahaha yeah I dunno what that’s called either 🤣

Cobra spit isn't it?

Yes that happens to me too.

Haha, it makes sense!

"Gleeking"

Yes, happens to me me. Fun trying to recreate it, but I'd imagine my reserves are empty.

Yeah, gleeking it's called. Happens to me sometimes

Yes happens to me alot. 🙄😮😁

I get this too.

Never heard of or experienced this 😧

This happens to me, I call it “dragon spray”

Wtf 😲

I've never had this happen to me or seen in happen to anyone else!

This first happened to me when I was about 10 years old and I thought there was something wrong with me 😁 Apparently, some people are able to do it on demand. Might be a bit jealous of that, tbh 🤣

🙄

Sorry, don't know what that was.
Wanted to say yes, there is a salivary gland under your tongue, in the middle.
If you look in the mirror, lift up your tongue, you may see saliva squirt from a tiny hole in the middle.

No, because I cover my mouth when I yawn and don’t try to carry on talking.

Even in private? Maybe you just don’t do it then.

Yeah my friend could do that on demand when she was young. Only happens to me unexpectedly though.

It literally squirts out without warning mid sentence - no action made for etiquette would be quick enough!

Yawnspurting

😂

What??? I've never had this or noticed anyone else doing it.

Does anyone else do little throat burp thingies when they yawn?
We call them yurps.

I did that once and the recipient said “I wanted the news not the weather”

So, this only happens when you yawn AND talk at the same time?

Surely you stop talking to yawn, and cover your mouth?
