I never got interested in it but my brother did.

Yes I do. I got into it and I still do it from time to time.

Fortunately there’s no arthritis risk associated with it despite claims to the contrary.

I have a friend who does it all the time and she is my age. We laugh about it, because I complain when she does it because I don’t except her for who she is. Lol

My wife and I both crack our fingers and toes regularly. We’re both Gen-X’ers.

I crack my ankles, chest, hips, elbows, knuckles, and toes.

I didn’t think of that. I have a rib that cracks. It’s like double jointed.

I sound like a bowl of rice crispies every morning when I get up. Knees hips and ankles pop every time I take a step.

I also pop my shoulders, elbows, wrists, hands, fingers, back, and neck.

Hmm. . .

I Can’t Even Remember When Saying The Word, “fad” Was A “fad”. . .

Was It Ever A “fad” (???).

What Is A “fad” (???).

Is What I’m Doing At Thus Moment Right Now, (Read By You In The Future), A “fad” (???).

Hmm. . .

I Honestly Think That The Word “fad”, Isn’t A “fad” Anymore.

But!, That Could Jus Be Me. . .

Although I Am Shared Enthusiastically Among The Masses, The Public, Mainstream Culture.

Not Because I Am A “fad”, But!, Because I Am Totally Awesome. And Kool (!!!).

But!, Thanx For Your Definition. Much Appreciated!.

I crack all crackable joints, otherwise they hurt. Especially fingers, neck and hips.
