the "no true scotch man" fallacy.
I don't even like it when the mariachi band goes by at a mexican restaurant and now suddenly there's ten lords a-leaping in my home, each of them making eye contact with me, pleading for engagement, showing off the leaping they trained for years to perfect, each trying to extract the emotional support of an entire audience from me alone.
Just get one of those hard rubber back rollers.
Shit's a miracle device.
Upper back is done by sitting and putting my hands on my thighs and pushing while relaxing my back and it goes crrrrrrrrkrkrkrkrkr all the way up. Lower back is a twisting motion while relaxing the lower back muscles.
Astronaut: wait, it's all birds?

the "no true scotch man" fallacy.
I am overwhelmingly envious
the "no true scotch man" fallacy.
It also ranks character usage. I think that’s all
I know this mood very well.
I handle it by using a massage chair thing and taking large risks of spinal injury via furniture and gravity.
Once even my nose but I ain't fucking with that.
You are a very smart man but the first time I met you the length of your arms made me reassess that
I didn’t even realize I had that prejudice until you stirred it
I can't crack my nose but I do like tenting both hands over my face, putting a thumbnail behind a front tooth, and pantomiming cracking it while picking at the tooth to make a snapping noise. It makes children scream every time and then they want to learn how to do it.
Learning I can crack my ears was pretty crazy. I pretty much sound like a low budget horror monster when I move if I don't keep my motions fluid. It gets very loud and creeps people out.
"Fiiiiiiiiiiive gooooooooolllld riiiiings"
Really emphasising the "wish" in "We WISH you a Merry Christmas"
Knowing that during the chorus of "Give me Oil in My Lamp" at least one kid wouldn't be paying attention and instead of finishing it with "Sing Hosanna to the King" would sing "Sing Hosanna to the King of Kings" like a fucking idiot, I mean Jesus what a tool
I'm sure these are universal memories to everybody who went to an English CofE-aligned junior school and utterly incomprehensible to everybody else
I should write for BuzzFeed
The other one, "Give me Oil in My Lamp" is a christmas song repurposed to be about hanukkah? I have never heard of this at all.
The result is a lot of extremely made up hanukkah music and while hilarious I am not sure this is what the policy had intended.
Stand back to back with a friend or loved one, someone trustworthy
Link arms at the elbow
Have the cracker bend forward, lifting the crackee up onto their back and bending them backward with support, even lifting them off their feet
The more core and back strength you've got, the more you can withstand this and get the back cracks
Usually you'll get one or two decent cracks; with enough core strength and practice, you can get a full accordion of cracks down the back
Here ya go

Please tell me she does non-Abrahamic made up songs because those sound awesome.
My Dad used to have me crack his neck.
Apparently it's based on The Parable of the Ten Virgins, so still Christian - the oil lamp is a coincidence
They wouldn't have bothered to even make lip service to other winter festivals in my area back then - I didn't know any Jewish people until I went to university, and maybe four non-white people total
Hanukkah was just something that American shows would mention as an afterthought in their Christmas specials
It definitely strained a tendon or three and weakened my neck, leading to hypermobility and pain issues
I kind of miss it, still. The deep, loud, merciless crunching, the cascade of heavy cracking sounds, it was so satisfying. I made people leave the room in bio-auditory distress more than once. God, the power.
I use bio-auditory distress to clear rooms, too.
(Which is immediately going into the step up program for a 3080)
Oh god like a week? Maybe this week? Yay!
the "no true scotch man" fallacy.
I like to loudly order my sashimi well done.
