Does anything happen to you when you tap your philtrum?

CorsetIsTight · 05-10-2011 08:10PM #1

Four people in this household, with the following reactions when they tap their philtrum with their finger:

Person 1 - strange twitchy feeling across the eyebrows; a bit like very mild electric shocks.

Person 2 - similar feeling, but at the outer corners of the eyes.

Person 3 - similar feeling, but on the scalp, above and a bit back from the ears.

Person 4 - no reaction at all.

We're trying to work out if there's one weirdo in the house, or three.

(I'm weirdo Person 1)

It's easier to find than the clitoris

pablomakaveli · 05-10-2011 08:21PM

I thought it was something sexual. I am dissappointed.:(

I've spat tea across the screen at funny posts, but I've never done that. I hope you wiped up after yourself.

LisaLee · 05-10-2011 08:43PM

My eyebrows feel funny...

My bottom lip goes slightly numb

Are you trying to kill us all?

Copied from another site:-

Is the vertical indentation between the upper lip and nose. The term derives from the Greek word philein, to kiss - for the ancient Greeks believed this area was one of the most erogenous spots on the body. Both Hitler and Charlie Chaplin covered theirs with a moustache- - while, apparently, SAS officers can kill someone simply by tapping-their philtrum in a certain way.

Yes, and I would have succeeded too, if it hadn't been for your meddling. :mad:

RichieC · 05-10-2011 11:18PM

"Tap on the philtrum, the vertical grove just below the nose: tap, tap, tap “I just wish I could lose some of this weight” tap, tap tap."
