I was just kinda curious, what do you guys think of goose bumps? When do you tend to get them?

I found the wikipedia article particularly enlightening: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goose_bumps

I look forward to hear your responses!

My girlfriend gets them all the time. I have no clue as to why it happens. She gets the "chills" all the time. I must be warm-blooded. I just don't get goosebumps. :)

huh? what?

Actually, I very rarely get goosebumps. Hmm..it seems like the only time I get them is when I've just stepped out of the shower/pool or an equivalent. I think this guy has goosebumps though: :eek: Why don't you ask him?

I get the goosebumps whenever I come to an extreme realization, be it good or bad. Also, I kind of liked the book series (Goosebumps) when I was a youngin'.

One time I was so hungry it gave me the goose bumps.

Ah humanity can't even keep fan service out of an encyclopedia.

Wikipedia definitely needed an edit. No need to thank me.

I get goosebumps a lot, when listening to jazz or good music.

After I come to a profound new realization like flow said. Also when I watch ghost shows... even if they aren't true just the possibility gives me the chills.

I bet its a response to adrenaline rush.
