Sorry, no. Non-clickertation of the clackers is one of the leading causes of early clackers declickeration. Clickeration of the clackers warns of problems early, when maintenance can be applied to the clackers before ongoing misaligned clickeration can have catastrophic effects on your clackers. Remember the old saying: Nine clicks is a fine thing.
Every power tool I pick up has a quick vroom-vroom before I use it properly
Gotta confirm that the battery is charged and/or that it’s properly plugged in and powered before you go to use it and then look like an idiot when it does nothing.
I do that with all the power tools too! One time I did that with my circular saw and it made a rattling noise, the blade was starting to come loose and needed tightened. A couple of times I’ve somehow just completely forgotten to tighten drill bits and found out during the pre-use vroom. So I think it legitimately helps get a quick safety gauge before diving into using something
The test clicks are so you get an accurate feel for the spring tension. It’s not the end of the world if you don’t do it, but you’re more likely to drop something.
I’m almost afraid to ask, but what are clackers? All I could find is the 1960’s children’s toy with two balls on a string. But that can’t be it, can it?
I am entirely convinced nothing bad will happen if you don’t pre-click the clackers.
You’re convinced? So you haven’t actually confirmed it? Still can’t resist the test clack even with this hypothesis?
And potentially have my penis fly off? I don’t think so!

The click is not for the clacker, it is for the cook.
Not prepared to take that chance…
Every power tool I pick up has a quick vroom-vroom before I use it properly, just like the tongs. It’s tradition.

Agreed. Also, I switch it from reverse to forward every time after use even if I have more screws to unscrew.

I think they’re describing the kitchen utensils more commonly known as Tongs.
It’s a sign we all yearn to be a crab.
You’ve clearly never grilled.
