I've got hiccups which is incredibly annoying but it does mean that every 4 seconds or so I'm reminded to think about fish evolution which is pretty cool.
Please talk about fish evolution and how it relates to hiccups I am SO curious
Okay so the thing about hiccups is that you have them by default. There's a special region in the brain that suppresses hiccups. "Yes hiccups" is the default. "No hiccups" was an ad-hoc addition.
Why?! Why would your body want to hiccup by default? what purpose does that serve? Well, none, for you. But it was very, very important for your ancestors.
Hiccups are a fish reflex. They're a remnant of the convulsion that fish automatically perform to pull water over their gills. When this system was repurposed for lungs, we eventually evolved a workaround that tells the gill twitch not to fire any more. When this fails, boom. Hiccups.
It's just your fish nervous system trying to be a fucking fish again.
