Its since been disproven but yes it has been associated with arthritis. |
Not by anyone who knows what post hoc ergo propter hoc means. |

Naw. I'm an frootloophead. For a couple of reasons.
Reason 1: I tried to look for the pot of gold under your hair but all I found was a giant pile of with spikes sticking out of it.
Reason 2: If, in the future, someone invented an Amazing Genetitron Cloneifying Machine that merges the DNA of two people, and their first test subjects were Mad Max and Bowser, it would create you. Unfortunately, shortly after this first experiment they declare Amazing Genetitron Cloneifying Machine a huge failure and scrap the project immediately.
Hmm...what's a Radagast? I don't know? What's a Google?
Whew, I drank a pot of strong coffee 8:00 AM this morning PST and i'm still wired. Ready to rock, I am. |

Cracking knuckles has NEVER been associated with causing arthritis.
This concept is as wrong as saying weight lifting makes you short, or
playing basketball makes you tall.
The "popping" of the knuckles results from forcing joint fluid to
very rapidly pass from one side of the joint to the other, where the
"sides" are partitioned off by the main bones of the joint. Let me
rephrase that: a joint is an area where two or more separate and distinct
bones meet. The joint fluid provides a cushioning between the joints
so that they don't grate into each other. Cracking your knuckles forces
the joint fluid from one part of the joint to another, and the popping
sound is just the result of the high pressured rushing of fluid.
Rheumatoid arthritis is characterized by the loss of joint fluid from the
joint, but it results from damage to the linings of the joint itself.
It's tempting to claim that the high pressure flushing of fluid during
a knuckle "crack" can cause damage to the lining, but there simply is no
evidence to that effect. It was probably made up by some very sensitive
individuals who hate the "pop". |
Too true. My mom, a nurse, and one of my aunts, also a nurse, have said the same thing. Thus, I go about popping my knuckles on both my fingers and my toes, and my right wrist. |

Just don't give me an F on my paper sir. What if I do some extra credit?
I understand your life decisions though. The spikes. The many-colored hair. Obviously you don't care what people think or else why even do it? Personally I applaud your lifestyle choices, and what better way to show the world how a real homosexual does things? Good for you man. |
