A long while back I was hanging out with one of my sisters and she said that she hears thunder in her head when she gets startled.
Me: “Scuse me. What?”
Her: “You know. That thunder you hear when someone startles you.”
Me: “Again. What?”
Her: “You don’t hear thunder when someone startles you?”
Me: “Uh, no.”
Her: “Oh. I thought that happened to everybody.”
Is this a thing? Does this happen to anybody else out there? She did struggle with depression for much of her life. Could that have had something to do with it?
okay how is this the first i’m hearing of this?? I’ve been able to do this as long as I can remember, I didn’t realise not everybody could until this moment
I can do this too. Weird. I just thought everyone can do it. I just flex the muscles around me ears.
Hahah probably because most people don’t know to call themselves an “ear rumbler”, but better late than never.
I made a magazine :) https://kbin.social/m/earrumblersassemble
