Blinking

[Mickey Mouse Kid]

I think blinking is soo awesome. Sometimes I stop and will just watch someone blink, and think about how no one ever notices blinking, but you do it all the time.

Do you ever think that something tiny and unnoticed most of the time is really neat? I do this sometimes.

we're actually learning about the body's reflexes in Biology we were learning about how if you hit someone's kneecap, the sensory nerve goes to a relay nerve in your spine and back through the motor nerve to the kneecap and makes your leg kick up (or something like that)

also did you know that whenever you blink your brain stops? it is true and has been tested. If your brain didn't stop then you would see the blink as your eyes close and imagine that every 2-3 seconds... would make watching something hard (kind of like blink and you'll miss it)

PROOF I'M AN IDIOT.
I thought you meant : bling king...
and I thought you forgot the g xD
Then i realized, it's a word.

Anyways, I either blink a lot or never.

I don't really get why it shuts off =O

What, exactly, is blinking during your sleep?

 

[HSMndLKfan92]

I don't know. My eyes are closed, yet I feel like I'm still blinking.

It's the most annoying feeling ever.

 

[Tinkerbell424]

Yea.But during the day while I am talking to people I don't notice them blinking.I guess I'm just so use to it.lol

 

[DramaGirl]

when I saw the title to this thread it made me blink.. and now I can't stop blinking!!! just wanted to say.. lol

You're unconcious while you sleep, you really can't get annoyed unless it's like in a dream.

I don't understand how your brain stops when you blink, it's just our eyes closing. Does that mean everytime our eyes close our brain stops? No, I don't believe it.

I don't notice blinking, even my own.

Huh I never knew your brain actually stops while blinking wow! And because I'm an idiot, I'm making myself blink,trying to notice that stuff. I think something small that no one really notices is well "you never know something is gone until you'll never have it again" that type of saying. Like toilet paper. Everyone uses it and doesn't think about it at all, but just imagine not having toilet paper. Lol

It said it suppressed a few a parts of the brain that controled our vision. It sounded like you said it temporarily turned the brain completely off.

And, how in the world do you blink when you sleep? Blinking is for moistening the cornea, and your eyes are already closed during sleep.

I'm not even the one that posted about the brain donig w/e when blinking

I think what they mean is when your eyes are clsoed but it still feels like you are blinking. Like.. .close your eyes, keep them shut and push harder down or w/e like a blink. I can't explain it, but I know what they are talking about
