I have a friend who does the same thing, but with hugging. He grasps boths his hands behind my back and pulls upward– as he is a bit taller than I am-- and he can pop more joints than I can count. Sometimes he will hug me two or three times to pop different parts of my back. It feels amazing.

So, I'm really grateful I'm not the only person addicted to popping her knuckles.

I pop my toes to no end. I can pop them multiple times in succession, and sometimes I will pop them to the point that I get muscle spasms in my feet– which aren't very fun. (But regardless, I keep on popping.)

My other favorite is my jaw. I asked the dentist about it the other year, producing a very audible grinding/cracking sound--I can make short loud pops, or crack it more slowly which produces a long grating sound, but is just as satisfying. He told me I had TMJD, probably as a result of previous teeth-grinding when I was younger, and that I shouldn't pop it anymore. Of course, I can't stop.

If I pop my jaw, or most of my joints, I normally have to pop it a few more times until it feels alright, which definitely reminds me of OCD.

That's about it. Thanks!
