Duane syndrome, also called Duane retraction syndrome (DRS), is a group of eye muscle disorders that cause abnormal eye movements. People with Duane syndrome have difficulty rotating one or both eyes outward (abduction) or inward (adduction).
Duane syndrome is due to miswiring of the eye muscles. The “mistake” probably happens around the 6th week of pregnancy and is due to poor development of tiny parts of the brain stem that control the eye muscles.
Duane syndrome affects girls more often than boys. In addition, the left eye is more often involved than the right eye. The reason for this is not known. Around 20% of Duane syndrome patients have both eyes affected. No particular race or ethnic group is more likely to be affected.
Characteristics include:
• Strabismus-the eyes may be misaligned and point in different directions at all times
• Head position-patients often maintain a head posture or head turn to keep the eyes straight
• Amblyopia-reduced vision in the affected eye.
• Eyelid narrowing-the affected eye may appear smaller than the other eye
• Upshoot or downshoot-with certain eye movements, the eye may occasionally deviate upward or downward

When playing a split screen game and you end up looking at the winners play area where you start to believe it's your screen. You eventually believe it's you who is winning or doing great and start to feel amazed with how good the game is going. At the end of the round or near it, you are flooded with embarrassment as you realize you have been staring at the wrong play area for an unknown amount of time thinking you were playing it where in reality your player has failed to advance. Could also happen in real life.

Reverse Swallowing Syndrome, aka RSS or RSD, is a rare condition where when you try to swallow something, you end up spitting it everywhere. If you want to swallow something, you have to act like you're about to spit it out. It's a rare condition happening to 1 in a million people. Often you'll forget you have it and get in trouble
Person 1: Dude, what the fuck!? Why did you just spit your Mountain Dew all over me?
Person 2: Sorry, I have Reverse Swallowing Syndrome

“Nice Guy Syndrome” is a man who believes he is a nice guy but is in fact not a nice guy. Calling yourself a “nice guy” doesn't excuse shitty behavior or a lack of human decency.
These “self-proclaimed nice guys” have no problem telling you what a "nice guy" they are but the manipulation, level of entitlement and the overall degrading perception of women make them a special kind of awful.
Most of the time "nice guys" view boundaries and the word NO as a moral injustice. They make cutting or belittling comments and then laugh it off by saying ‘I was only joking! Why do you take things so seriously?’ When you disagree with them or stand up for yourself they get nasty and mean showcasing themselves as the needy narcissist, jealous jerk, or passive-aggressive person they actually are.
They also have a certain view of a woman and how she’s “supposed” to be or act which coincides with putting women on pedestals, effectively removing their personal identity and turning them into a possession.
What’s worse is, most of the time these types of men are so convinced that they are indeed the victim of any given situation, that they are utterly and completely oblivious to their superb level of asshattery.
Do you really need props for not acting like an ass-face?
News flash... lions don't go around telling everyone they're a lion. Real nice guys don't run around telling everyone how "nice" they are.

How to spot Nice Guy Syndrome
Quotes from an ex-
But I am a nice guy. I get drunk and say dumb things. Get passed that and I'm the nicest person you'll ever meet.
I think you're scared. I'm not like those other guys. I drink and say stupid shit. That's pretty much it. I'm really the nicest guy you've ever dated.
