I never used to do it and I find myself constantly cracking them. Ack, I hate it though.
I really hate it when people crack their necks though. Once I saw this girl just rotating her head and it was cracking everywhere. *shudder* :p

Yes :X I think I started cracking them when I was in grade 8...so that would be like 6ish yrs ago :X It's a habbit now I guess. However, I find if you're writing a lot and get sore fingers that cracking them helps it a lot o_O

I never do know when I do it. I do when I'm board. I know it is bad for you but I think it feels really good.;)

Sometimes, I only do it if my fingers feel stiff or something.

Mmm not sure if this is what you mean, but I don't pop my knuckles...only my fingers. (and thumb) I also crack a lot of other joints but I don't want to start naming.:p

EWWW! NO! GROSS and uncouth, disgusting, impolite and can damage your knuckles. Why would anyone do this except to be annoying?

I never used too, but lately I've been cracking my neck, knuckles and back. I think I'm just tense lately from stress.

It often feels very good after writing for a long time.
That's when I do it, and it's not to be annoying.

Yes, I do... I have a lot of stiffness and many old injuries and while it's not the best thing to do it makes me feel much better.
