Thorongil Posted November 24, 2021 Author Share Posted November 24, 2021 I love cracking my fingers. And toes and knees and ankles. Incredibly relaxing. it used to really bother my wife but one day I accidentally cracked one of her fingers and she got curious. I then showed her it was just a knack and she will sometimes ask me to do it for her. She no longer complains when I do it. I won one!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, but it has an entirely different context for me.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With mild reflexology I can make my joints make a kind of clicking or cracking sound. It’s very relaxing. you know the kind of thing. when I was a kid people used to say “oooh you’ll end up with arthritis” but this is a myth. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 The first wear of a new pair of slippers. Superb. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvio Tattiescone Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Pulling on a new pair of socks. Wearing a crisp new shirt. The softness of the inside of a new sweatshirt. In fact, the first wear of new clothes in general. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Sometimes ill wake up in the middle of the night and have a momentary panic ive overslept, check the time, see its something like 4am and then curl up all toasty like Eric Cartman for a couple more hours of blissful peace. Finding loose silvers or even pound coins on the ground outside, picking up coppers doesnt feel worth the effort but a 50p someone has dropped (provided its not grotty looking) is getting in my pocket.Similarly, I don't think there's any better feeling when you wake up slightly in the morning and your brain is convinced you've to be up for work before realising a few seconds later that you're actually off that day. Absolutely magic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Steele Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 The pop when a new pot of jam is opened. PTTGOYN if it doesn't open easily. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UsedToGoToCentralPark Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 The pop when a new pot of jam is opened. PTTGOYN if it doesn't open easily.Just push a thin knife slightly between the lid and the glass to pop the air tight seal. After that it opens easily. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curmudgeon Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 The supreme satisfaction of sending a small item of rubbish in a perfect arc into a bin or waste paper basket saving yourself a few steps and a couple of seconds of valuable time while clinging on to the slim hope that it's not too late for a career in the NBA. Doubly satisfying if it's from a seated rather than standing position. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pttpm is after failing to open a jar, running the lid under a hot tap for a few seconds and having it open with ease afterwards. Lovely. Getting into my bed after getting up for a pee in the middle of the night. Freezing flat, toasty bed. Perfect. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
