  7. It’s a reflex for her to smile when someone sticks their foot in their mouth or says something obviously offensive in the direction of a particular individual but in the presence of a group. She miles and grits her teeth as if he feels the embarrassment both parties should be experiencing. It’s a reflex for her to smile when someone criticizes her for the way she goes about things, her own peculiar quirks and tendencies. Even when she is deeply hurt, suspicious or furious, it is a reflex to smile.

  8. Reflex. Reflex to type, reflex to breathe, reflex when you use that tiny hammer on your knee, or your doctor does. And he probably should, because it’s best for you not to be hitting people with tiny hammers without a license. All the trouble you could get into! Astounding!

  10. Are a funny thing. Sometimes we’ll just sit and watch something fall and other times we’ll instantly reach out and grab the falling object. I’ve always wondered what triggers us to do or not do that.

  11. I thought I was alone when you came up and kissed my neck. My reflex reaction was to turn and kick. I am sorry.. does it hurt much? Next time don’t sneak up on me!

  12. Hiding in the closet was the reflex action he had taken since grade school any time he heard the doorbell ring. It was ingrained within him so how was he now, as a doorman in this fancy highrise, going to remember to actually open the door when the bell sounded as opposed to opening the janitor’s closet?

  13. Doctors tap your knee with a little triangle thing to test if you have any….. I don’t……. or maybe I’m just pretending. Am I? Maybe, but I certainly have them when it comes to fighting. I’m like a ninja. Well, I am a ninja. But don’t tell anyone……

  14. Reflex is like reflect. My reflexes are so quick I jump at the sight of a toilet bowl an wink at the scent of a poop. i love them honey and combs. not honeycombs. reflexes are when you can dance to the music and chill to the shit in a second of each other.

  15. Reflex. Something I want to do, something I don’t want to. Something that will save my life, something that will end it. Or perhaps it’s something that I really can control…I just don’t choose to do so. Reflex. Maybe it can change the course of fate, or maybe it’s all in our heads.

  22. The only reflex now is a knee jerk. The world seems to constantly be coming to an ending and all of God’s children are doomed to hellfire. Or maybe just a Sunday wasted in church. Who’s to say? The only reflex is truth.

  26. Above my knee, the doctor hit. If I had a hard ruler I could do it myself. It makes me feel like I don’t have control of my body. The first time it happened I thought it was a sign of bad health. I like control.

  29. I have no reflexes. The car hits mine, and I don’t even put my hands up to block it. Someone hits me in the face, and I just turn the other cheek. Someone snaps a rubber band on the place beneath my bicep, and it stings, but I don’t flinch.
    My relfexes are gone.

  31. so i have loaded this page several times, hoping to get a new word. i don’t know what to say about the word reflex. it’s not a great word. it makes me think of going to the doctor, and him hitting my knee. it makes me sad.

  35. He’ll never know how much he makes me smile.
    I think of the flex in reflex, and how natural it is to humans and animals in general. That’s why people miscommunicate, because of their own reflexes, their reactions to certain situations. But ma lot of the times, that’s really how someone feels. It’s just that you can’t act mean to someone who’s your friend, or act disgusted towards them. You have to cover things up to act somewhat decent in this world. That’s just how life works.

  36. as soon as something happens to you, you have a reflex. How fast you react to something. If you knock something down and you catch it, you have very good reflexes. I have ninja reflexes because i am that good.

  38. I love reflexes because I can let them happen, I just merely let my body react. When I am thrown into a situation, I know what my personality is by my reflex.

  39. The automatic reaction to the things that are not chosen.
    An unconscious effort to right the wrongs you’ve been handed.
    A necessary truth in a world of complex thoughts.

  40. It seems that its always my reflex to recoil in terror at the sight of blood. It never used to be like that, however. My best friend got into a car accident and was covered in blood at the hospital. Ever since then I have passed out.
