minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish19•edit-27 months agoI can twitch my eyeballs left and right really fast, and not just a little bit - but most of the way. Completely grosses people out when I do it. Edit: I can even do circles, but not as fast as left and right.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish7•7 months agoNeat! Thanks for the name/info. I’m the only person I’ve ever met who can do this. It’s apparently somewhat more common than I thought. I’m an old man, but I still do it specifically to my sister because she cannot stand it. /sibling rivalry lives on
minus-square@Lost_My_Mindlink6•7 months agoI think we have the same talent. Does it look like your eyes are vibrating?
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish4•edit-27 months agoI don’t know because I can’t see a thing when I do it ;) Edit: I suppose I should make a video of myself - just never have. Sounds like I’ve got plans for the evening :)
minus-square@Lost_My_Mindlink3•7 months agoOh…then maybe we have different talents. I can see the whole world having an earthquake when I do it.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish5•7 months agoThere used to be a subreddit for us. It was called /r/eyeshakers. By the way, the scientific name for the eye shake thing, IIRC, is nystagmus.

This is called Voluntary Nystagmus.
