Here some random fun.  Can you do the Vulcan hand salute from Star Trek?

Definitely! I just LOVE Star Trek so much! I would be really mad at myself if I couldn't do it. I can act like a Vulcan a bit sometimes. Logic is best :D

Yes, but ask me if I can wink or whistle and that'd be another story.

Yesh!  Live long and prosper!

Here's another bit of trivia.  Leonard Nimoy offered that gesture as the Vulcan salute because he was Jewish.  Rabbis occasionally use the same gesture as a benediction.

Yep! I’m the co-president of the sci-fi and fantasy club at school, and that’s always how I greet club members in the halls. But I cannot wink, whistle or cross my eyes. Strange,huh?

Yes, ironically I have an easier time with my left hand than right one though.

Yup; easy-peasy. I can whistle, wink, cross my eyes, move my eyes independently of one another, roll my tongue, make a tongue clover, make a hitch-hiker's thumb, wiggle my ears, waggle my eyebrows, arch an eyebrow, AAAAAAAND, when I'm super cold, my kneecaps shiver!!! When I stand and I'm very cold, my kneecaps twitch up and down rapidly. I can do the twitching at will too. Isn't the human body amazing?

Yes I can, with both hand now. =D
I can also wink with both eyes, cross my eyes and move one of them separately but I can't really control it, I have no idea what it does. x)
And I can crack my thumb indefinitely. Well, that's something. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
