Did you do a thread about this before? Not sure if it was you but there has definitely been one a few months back.

But to answer the Q....I've never really seen anyone do it on a regular enough basis to grate on me. I know some people do it to relax or if they're nervous but I remember reading that it can be perceived as someone who's bored or frustrated of/with the company they're in!

  Good memory Karma.

I did a thread previously which was a variation on this idea.

Imagine if she was flicking her hair around too, brisket - you'd be going ballistic

talking of legs..

 what about the jiggy leg?

 when  some one is sitting and  both feet are on the floor and one foot is on tippytoes( i'm actually doing this now   so i can get the explanation right)  and they rapidly jig that leg?

 never seen a girl  do it,   blokes do it a lot tho.

I do it...   my daughter does it...  

can't beat a bit of jiggy leg 

I do it when I'm annoyed or agitated in some way.

My family say that it can indicate that I'm ready to blow a fuse.

I do it and usually when I'm nervous, it's not really a sign of anger with me.... I do it if I am stressed about something or concentrating. I also do the jiggy legs too, used to drive my dad mad 

Same here,also when and if I start biting my lower lip that means biiiig trouble.

I'm a bouncy leg person from time to time. I can appreciate that it could be annoying to others!

My son in law gets the jiggy leg when he's nervous about something

You know me too well.

(Or perhaps I just repeat myself too much.)

My son has the jiggy upper leg syndrome when he's nervous.

I do believe we (jacksonb) may have launched a new word - the "jiggy-leg".

I suspect it may one day enter the dictionary as "the GaGaJoyJoy Jiggy-leg."

My son-in-law also gets the jiggy leg from time to time. He's a big strapping young man, and it has been mistaken for an earthquake before.

Could it be him who's responsible for the unexplained tremors in Seattle?

I don't do the jiggy leg thing...... but I am a committed and creative foot jiggler!

I don't jiggle in public.... but at home there's no stopping me. In fact, I'm jiggling right now. Both feet jiggle, but not in tandem, they both have a different rhythm that compliment each other nicely

All that perpetual motion must be quite exhausting Ducky.

It irritates the hell out of my son Brisket...so you are not alone.

 My legs jiggle from time to time too..............ask them to dance tho and they are useless......

I suffer from restless legs particularly in bed ( no rudery please )

But the behaviour that you describe, Brisket, I always associate with someone being really annoyed.

Actually my first thought when I read the title was 'Jezza guests'!

my husband suffers restless leg syndrome - he tries to explain but - it really is hard to imagine. it drives him NUTS!!! you have my sympathy!

I do jiggy-leg bounce when I'm bored and I have restless leg syndrome in bed 

I only find jiggy-leg annoying if the person who is bouncing their leg kicks my chair 

 I am afraid that I do it too at times......

yes it is annoying.  Some people have very irritating habits.. 

LOL... no, I meant leg jigging.... NOT kicking the back of people's chairs

 I know......

i do the jiggy leg when I'm annoyed, so they tell me anyway, I never notice it.

I do it all the time, but mostly in my own company.  I consider it a lazy way of losing calories - don't know if it does really, but worth a go!

I love your threads Brisket. All these things that grind your gears are hilarious 

Thank you suzy.  I love you (I think) for that!

Don't think, just do *air kiss* (even if that does p you off) 

I do it sometimes but find it annoying when others do it LOL
