snip, something about clickie-jaws
Oo, I have those popping/clicking jaws as well. Had it ever since I needed some kind of ugly dental thingie to fix my overbite when I was 10.
Also, I have Pectus excavatum. I put beer bottles there while I'm sitting. It's kind of useful!

I have a twitch:( it is annoying and embarrassing. I always twitch one way (head jerks right, right shoulder jerks up) and occasionally make a noise that sounds a bit like a yelp (my housemates, being loving, like to chant "yippie-kai-yay-muthafucker" when I do it because it sounds like a yip). Feels like an oncoming sneeze when it happens, hate it.

I have an extremely fast metabolism, so I stay extrremely thin no matter what I eat. :/
My toes are extremely dexterious, allowing me to pick up even small things with my toes.
High five Sir! Fast metabolisms rock. Except my BMI index is 15.
*high fives*
My BMI is a little better, I think I am only like 1/2-1 point underweight. But I still look unhealthily skinny.

Hmm... Well, my chest cavity is actually caved in a little bit (Though apparently if I do a lot of weight lifting, it'll fix it). Annnd... I can't really think of anything else at the moment.

My little brother has the jaw thing too btw.

Oh! And I have a freakishly low blood pressure which leads to occasional fainting if I move too quickly. Though, it's not dependent on how long I've been down or anything. It's strange.

Nothing much really, other than the fact that, I can bend my fingers back so far, they almost touch the back of my hand.

I can make a farting sound using the palm of my hand and my ear. I can also do it with the region of my face around the eyebrow and beginning of cheek. I can squeeze out the compressed air and it makes the sound.

I occaisnonally pull a muscle in my left sole... when I'm sitting still.

I also randomly suffer from horrible migranes following this process:

1.) My vision will become incrementally blurred, starting with muddled images in the centre of my vision to the outside of my vision becoming unbearably blurred and muddled.

2.) The tips of my fingers on my left or right hand become numb and stiff. This numbness proceeds to travel down my arms and curses throughout my body. Usually, I feel it all across one arm, the other hand and in my face, but on some occasions my entire body has been rendered useless. An area that has been rendered numb is unbearable to touch.

3.) I have a horrible headache for an hour or two while the above symptoms play out.

4.) Symptoms one + two usually start to wear off at this stage, though the headache remains.

5.) After an hour or two I am sick, the symptoms are mostly gone and the headache is bearable.

I have no idea what triggers this phenonomon. Suspects in the past include chocolate, orange juice, sunny days, sunny cold days, excessive computer usage and stress. Most have been debunked, except the latter, which is most likely. It has occasionally happened since I was 14.

I know of nobody else who has suffered from this.

Having played Mother 3, however, I have always hoped some Psycho Kinetic power will come at the end of it, but no :p

I can move the toe next to the Hallux up and down freely from the middle.
I can click my jaw.
I can bend my eye lips upside down. It looks like I have no eyes when I do it.

Sometimes an eyelid (mostly the left one) flutters for no apparant reason.
All I can think of right now.
The exact same things happen to me. Wierd!

So... yeah, I have a lot of quirky body movements I can do :p
THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Ive always been able to bend my knee's inward's and my thumb backwards until it is flat against my wrist XD
Always wondered what caused it

My metabolism (catabolic, mind you) is pretty damn low when you don't factor in the skeletal muscle mass.

OP, I used to have the clicking jaw, but somewhere over the years, it went away.

I have constant sinus drainage, so I have to cough often (once an hour, I think) to clear my throat.

Caffeine doesn't do shit to me. It doesn't affect my brother or my dad either, for that matter. When we drink coffee, we just do it for the warmth and the taste.

Yeah I know, everyone is unique and has a special body blah blah blah, sometimes though I feel as though there are things about my body that are just plain weird. For example, my arms don't fully bend/extend at the elbow. where as a normal person can fully straighten out their arm, mine will always have a slight bend at the elbow - heck some people can bend it so far it straightens then bends again in the other direction. I've never heard of someone having this problem (and no, I've never broken my arms, or anything).

Another one is my clicking/popping jaws. I've had them since I was 16, and I remember a doctor telling me that there is no (worthwhile) fix to the problem, and that it is actually pretty common. Doesn't stop it from being annoying as all hell sometimes, even after all these years, I am not completely used to it... I wish it would just go away :(.

Those are just some of my weird quirks about my body, I guess if that's the worst I have to complain about, I shouldn't even bother considering there are parapalegics and quadrapalegics and palsied people who have to live with life changing differences in their bodies.

Still... I figure if I heard some other (minor) quirks with peoples bodies, I wouldn't feel so weird. So... uhhh.... tell me yours. Or don't, whatever.
The clicking sound in your jaw is your wisdom teeth, get ready to pull them sh*ts out.

I can fit my fist in my mouth easily and I can't fit my hands inside Pringles tubes just for perspective.

Let's see:
Jaw-clicking too (and it isn't wisdom teeth in me: I had those out 2 decades ago)

I can crack my knuckles by clenching my fist (like they did in the Matrix); people think that is really cool for some reason

My hair started turning white at the age of 32. I now have several large patches of white in my beard

I can wiggle my ears

I can drink a LOT of alcohol (like more than a fifth) and remain completely coherant, if unfit to drive. I might slur my words a little, but otherwise you really wouldn't know how much I've had to drink. When I get too wasted, I just pass out rather than making an ass of myself.

I can crack virtually joint in my body, incl. hips and shoulders. I often sound like a fireworks display when I stand up after sitting for a long period.

I am freakishly dense: at those 'guess your weight' booths at the amusement park, they're usually off by 40+ lbs. (I'm just a very average looking guy... well, except for the hair)

my pupils have a wavy ring around them. It's hard to describe.

i can click every joint in my body, drink an absurd amount of alcohol and not get drunk, and my hair decides what it wants to do for the day, not me
