"flossing" bacon from between my teeth with a £20 note or train ticket.

.....and the award for the most overtly carnivorous capitalist statement of the year goes to...Stoner! 😀

You are the Wolf of Wall Street and I claim my £20 🙂

You'll have to clean the bacon off it first...

Lick the bacon. Never, ever waste bacon. Ever. 😉

£5 are skanky, revolting things. Need to use a denomination that the great unwashed are less likely to have handled.

No one has said squeezing spots yet! Or picking scabs!

Dead Mans Fingers? I've got that all the time anyway 😀 Gotta love spinal damage 😆
My OH does my spots the odd occasion I get them - actively hunts them down!
Don't mind as I get my back stroked at the same time.

Those polished chunks of haematite. So beautifully smooth and so nice and weighty. Any polished stone is good, but haematite... mmmm.

Oh, and smoothing out Bendicks wrappers - surely everyone does that. With the back of the thumbnail, of course.

Holding a 4d Cell Maglite.
The weight and the heft of it, the smooth action of the beam focusing as you twist the head.

Baby cheeks... probably because they feel like innocence 🙁

Yup pulling hair out is one of mine especially eyebrows and lashes which I seem to have too many of.
Dogs ears - My Labradors are like a bit of warm velvet and she seems to enjoy it too, she falls asleep.
Kneading dough - Very satisfying

Looking at the sun (or another bright light) to make myself sneeze. Spectacular.

Kneading dough - Very satisfying

Also very good for cleaning under your fingernails.

Stroking cat's paws - the pink pad bits... but only for a few seconds before she lacertaes the back of my hand.

That and origami with empty salty snack packets

Kinda got me thinking this thread.

D'ya think Apple employ "touchy's" and/or "feely's" for their products? I mean they always feel nice to the touch don't they..

I stroke my 6s a lot..

A well worn gate post.

Chopping raw potatoes with a very sharp knife.

Seaweed.

Slicing mushrooms.

Squeaky cheese (Haloumi etc.) on your teeth.

A cup of tea when it is almost too hot to drink, but not quite. So you can guzzle it down in one.

I get the nose hair one.
Similarly, does anyone else pick their nose, form it into a ball and roll it around on their lips?
Maybe just me.

My wife often takes the mick out of me as when we're out and about I'm often touching objects/items to see how tactile they feel.

Agree with lots of the above, but one thing I really appreciate on car dashboards/hi-fi's etc is a volume control knob that has a weighty, yet smooth action and a satisfying click.

At the risk of being treated as a pariah - how about the pleasingly taught foil over a newly opened jar of instant coffee? - yes, I said 'instant coffee'. Followed by the equally satisfying piercing of said foil.

Also - we're all page 3 and no mention of 'Fleshlight'?

Fiddling with the fabric "pull tab" on the back of a RM William or Doc Martin Chelsea boot.

They're quite firm/starched to begin with, but after a while they go soft and feathery, which is pleasantly tactile.

Yes! Writing on the sole of your slippers with a biro was a childhood pleasure! I also like that silky soft fur on the back of the cat's head.
