      Btw why do i bounce my leg? Whats the science there. It doesnt bother me thst much to stop and i dont stress or anything its just kinda nice to do it when im sitting. I also just move my leg to a rythm when im lying down for example.

        One time worked in an office building with a pretty shitty floor on the second floor. Wouldn't have surprised me if it wasn't really all that structurally sound, because I could bounce my leg, just like I am doing right now, and the dude sitting next desk over could feel it in the floor. I ended up moving to another desk to avoid the conflict with the coworker... and in case the building was shitty enough that it was a weak spot in the floor.

          Haha, no. But that's a hilarious to think about.

            I am really, really sorry. That really bothers me when people do it, but I know it helps them. I try to tolerate it if I'm not having an awful sensory day, but sometimes it's like the noisy lightbulb and I just can't take it.

              I work in a tiny office right next to my manager who leg bounces, hand flaps, is heavy-handed on his keyboard, and externalises his thoughts all the time. But when ever I leg bounce he’ll let me know how distracting it is.

              I’m so close to a HR incident I swear to god.

                There's leg bouncing and there's the house is shaking leg bouncing.

                I draw the line at when my monitor is shaking.

                    Huh... not science on my part either but i played waterpolo for 6 years 7 times a week and this is basically the most fundamental technique of the sport.

                      I had a biology teacher in middle school who said boys/men bouncing their leg are masturbating their prostate. She would also slander boys/men in any way she could during every class. Getting good grades as a boy in her class was impossible. Not my weirdest teacher but still memorable.

                        You can appreciate them, but know in 10 mins when it starts up again they tried.

                            Don't and never have done regular sport and I'm pretty bad for it. I think it's just restlessness or helping blood flow.

                              The trick is to bounce both legs but in opposite directions. When one is going up the other is going down, cancelling each other out.

                                For me, leg bouncing isn't 'helping' anything so much as my leg just does that and to stop it takes constant effort. The moment I get distracted it goes back to bouncing.

                                    I'm both like you and a fidgeter myself. It sucks. I do try to fidget subtlely- I like rubbing my fingernails with the thumb of the same hand.

                                    I just put my piano fingers in my pockets while I'm walking around. I think it looks sophisticated.

                                      Care to share what the weirdest one was, because that was weird as hell.

                                        I've legit just started:

                                        "Can you stop shaking your leg?"

                                        "No."

                                        "Excuse me?"

                                        "I'm literally physically unable to control it, so, no I can't stop. Sorry."

                                        I'm not even trying to be funny or lying, just deadpan matter of fact truth: no, I cannot.

                                          She needs to be transferred to basically any subject other than biology, seeing as she has clearly demonstrated her lack of knowledge on the subject.
