Hiccups, Purring, Nausea: Unexplained Physiology

Let's face it, even the "most cleverest" troll on ATS must admit that 3D reality has yet to be fully explained. (Concurrence? No?)

This thread is intended more as a survey than a statement...
Which UNEXPLAINED phenomena intrigues you the most?

For me, it could very well be humor; it's like a sincere allergic reaction to human insanity/contradiction.
So, what's your fascination within the area of quirky physiology? What doesn't add up for you? What's amazing? What's mysterious?

The clues/pointers are already in the thread title. The content is up to you the (l)user.
Now let's make this thread POP, people!! I don't have all night... I have spreadsheets to fill up, things to consume!

(If you want examples, look 'em up yourself ya lazy bastiches...)

Sincerelessly,
D.D.

There are a couple that spring to mind. Mother-child/twins psychic connection, of which I have personal experience. And, transplant recipients acquiring distinct personality traits from the organ donor.

I must be tired, I do not understand the direction of the thread.

I guess foreign accent syndrome or foreign language syndrome. It never made sense to me how that's possible when those people have never been to the land whose tongue they are speaking.

ive heard of the transplant recipient taking on the previous owners traits.

Trick lung Mickey comes to mind immediately.
He got himself a fresh set of those O2 teets from a man who died of a crack addiction.

Now Trick Lung is saying he has caught that appetite for destruction.
No reason just one day he woke up with that hunger.

Pretty dang weird IMO.

Arrr, well, that's the brain then. Some psychologists debunking the abduction phenomenon say (after the interview of abductees of a couple of weeks) say these are definitely made up memories and that's the end of it.
Yet a certain Dr, whos memories are 30 odd years old, are to be taken as the gospel truth. Go figure.
