How many extra bones do you have?

As of right now I have three extra bones, including a wisdom tooth.

Just three extra bones? I have over a thousand extra.

Well, over a thousand. The three extra bones are from the back of my head.

Neither do I, Frank.

This may be an awkward thing to say, but I’m not sure what to make of the fact that I can (sometimes) hear the bones in my head. For instance, when I’m working on a computer (my laptop sometimes, but I also have a desktop) if I keep my eyes on a point in front of me I can sometimes hear the sound of crunching on the inside of my skull. And when I’m sitting and reading for a while, I can sometimes hear the bones in my back making an unpleasant crinkling sound like someone chewing on a piece of gum. This only happens for a few minutes every time I do it, but it’s a bit disconcerting, like an eerie sense of a presence nearby.

The first comment is so bizarre to me that I’m wondering whether I really heard what I think I heard. For example, the back of my head is mostly air.
