I think that was my comment. My girlfriend gets these too but actually dislikes them, which I thought was interesting. It’s also worth pointing out that that site is run by non-scientists and I haven’t been able to find research on this topic.
When I looked at some of the links from that page, I found it mildly weird how enjoyable some people find it, to the point of using it as a form of mood management and bemoaning the loss the of it. This leads me to believe that a) not everyone has the reaction (eg. some people on reddit thought they were being trolled), and b) it’s highly varied in strength/frequency/pleasantness (eg. I have very few reliable triggers and it’s not so great that I seek it out).
