YES!!

I have all kinds of games I play with my fingers to build coordination and piss people off. The only toy I play with is a pen, which I spin between my fingers. I can't think of anything else right now but I fidget with whatever's at hand.

But bubble wrap is a hell of alot of fun.

my teachers have commented on how i tap dance with my fingers...

and theres this one toy i play with all the time.. its a paper-sized sheet of acrylic i found and i fold it and snap it and make bubbly noises with it

oo noises.. I love to make water droplet noises with my mouth, popping noises with my thumb+mouth, whistle, hum+whistle at the same time, and of course the fingers and feet practicaly tap all by themselves if I don't keep them under control. Drives my teachers and peers Crazy (with a capital C!)

take apart a disposable camera (when all your pictures are taken up, wind the thingy at least 5 times) and take it apart. Save the film canister and get that developed later. Fully take it apart and then charge the flash by pressing the button in front. The capacitor is the black thing in the front. It will begin to make a high pitched tone, it'll get higher and higher until it is beyond what humans can hear. your dog will come up and bite you. When the orange light next to the viewfinder is shining, then the flash is ready. At this point you can do one of two things: 1) tell someone to tap on the plastic thing (the flash bulb, but it wont look like that when the cover is off) you can demonstrate yourself, and say it gives your finger a tingly feeling. When they tap it, click the shutter and it will flash and they will think they got shocked and scare the shit out of them (i scared several of my teachers, but its not like they didnt hate me in the first place). Note: the shutter is advanced not by the clicking wheel thing, but by the actual film pulling against a second shutter advance wheel. To prevent kids from playing with the camera and shocking themselves they made it this way, but it doesnt really work begause the kids simply open the camera up further increasing the change of dying. 2) you can touch the circuits and burn your finger (whats reeeaaallly cool is if you touch one finger onto one contact of the capacitor and youth another finger from another hand onto the other contact, press hard or else it will burn you). The electricity goes through all your arms but sometimes it can go across your heart and you will die
