Talk:Goose bumps

message: The following quoted paragraph was removed from Goose bumps,
"== Positive effects ==
Goose bumps being a form of nervous stimuli, it is in theory, a state that can alter certain unpleasant nervous conditions. It is assumed a positive feeling of awe that it can emulate may in a sense be a diminishing factor of certain stressful conditions such as paranoia, or short-term panic attacks caused by various forms of phobia."
because it is
a) unclear,
b) unreferenced, and
c) dealing with health-related information, so both a) and b) are especially important, so that people do not receive bad health information and misdiagnose themselves or another.

thread_title:  Music section is pulled verbatim from its source. 

message: I have not been able to find any other sort of evidence or support for the idea that the skin secretes an oil that traps air for the purpose of insulation (note: not sweat) when a person experiences goose bumps.  Additionally, the source provided does not appear to be sufficiently scientific or medical in nature or purpose (creationist website making unsupported claims).  If anyone can provide a reliable source to support this effect it would be most welcome.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jetblackson (talk • contribs) 05:12, 25 April 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Emission of an "Air-trapping oil" / Creationist sourcing 

message: Goose bumps can be caused by sounds, physical feeling and thoughts of those.
For example, whenever someone washes a plastic cutting board I get goose bumps
from the sound od that, and from some sounds than can be emitted then writting on
a blackboard.
For the feeling part, touching some textiles can cause goose bumps.
Examples: hats, mouse mats, sweaters, t-shirts and those fluffy things
electronics are sometimes shipped with. And of cause the sound of rubbing
such materials against each other.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.150.208.92 (talk) 17:41, 5 February 2013 (UTC)
