Speaking of messed-up jaws, if I open my mouth wide enough (for instance, if I yawn) sometimes my right jaw joint will lock in place and I won't be able to close my mouth unless I basically punch my jaw back into place. One time it got stuck for an hour before I could fix it. Freaked me the hell out.

If it keeps doing that, or gets worse,  you might want to get it looked at.  Sometimes a tendon or ligament needs tightening, or something's shifted that things aren't sitting square in place anymore.

If it's been going on for a while, get it looked at now. No reason to wait.

Lock jaw is something you shouldn't wait to get it looked at... if it gets too bad you may end up not being able to eat or speak.

 My red highlights are seriously starting to fade, and I have to wait at least a month to get them redone(one day I need to go full on ginger).

My best friend had the same problem, due to going swimming (chlorine filled pool) daily. At this point, her black and red Omega hair is now just light brown.

Last time I had it done was in April/May, so it's been awhile. The special shampoo I use helps in making it last. It's just that I'm trying my best to save money for the Comic Con I'm going to in October.

Ahh, okay. My black hair has gone back to brown and I just haven't had the money to get black. She's just been too forgetful to get hers fixed, plus realized it would just get screwed up again.

Holy crap, seriously? I've had this problem since I was a little kid. It's always kinda stayed the same: annoying, but manageable. That's probably good advice regardless, though.

That happens to me too. I went to doctor a long time a go but all she did was give me some instructions for excercising my jaw.

Now if I ever bothered to do those then it might actually help...

My jaw basically dislocates whenever I open it too much and although it hasn't gotten stuck, more than a few times years ago, closing my mouth happens in a weird fashion as my jaw does a z shaped movement to get past the point where it would get stuck. I had been doing that for over 20 years before I even realised it. It just seemed natural for me that my jaw does a *crack* sound and those movements.

In hindsight someone in my family should have noticed it earlier if not me.
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

If it's been around since your childhood and it's stayed the same, then unless it gets to being a real problem for you, I don't think it's indicative of anything immediately dangerous like lockjaw (tetanus), which is caused by a microbe.  Could be a genetic quirk in your jaw that makes it not quite as tight as the average person.

Though, getting it looked at might net you some methods to mitigate it.  If you can do so without breaking your bank, tis worth a shot, I'd think.

If it isn't lockjaw, it's still something to get looked at. Your mouth serves some pretty important functions for living. So yeah. I'd still get it looked at if possible.

Went airsofting. Bought new fingerless gloves for it.

Got shot in the hand on the match where I forgot gloves.

People who Godwin the stupidest things. In the local paper there was this guy writing to the editor to bitch about a $35 parking ticket he received in error, calling the officer who gave out the ticket a "Nazi."

Right, because accidentally being mildly inconvenienced is totally comparable to being tortured and murdered in a death camp. Good to know.
