Just like that colour guy for Raptors games with the American East Coast accent and the gray hair, although I dont remember his name. Every time he talks I just wanna yell at the TV; "Clear your damn throat!!"(although Im sure thats not what the actual prob is, must be some kind of condition, or damaged vocal cords or somethin)

If you aren't a leg shaker, you're probably crazy. It's science.

At least do it at a time where it isn't important... cuz I can't write a test while being moved by leg shakers who can't stop

I feel your pain STeeLy. I hated taking exams in the rooms that had those long tables with the pull out stool seats and I almost always had exams in Southam Hall where they had those darn seats. Aside from the shaking tables, what really bothered me about them was that they were usually squeaky and throughout the exam, you would hear loud piercing screeches from those chairs. It drove me crazy. Plus, if you were seated on the inside, more than likely you had to disrupt a few people to get out.

U know it Elle, it was Southam, 502 if u know it well enough... luckily, I was one of the later ones to finish (check and recheck) so I only had to disrupt one person to get out, and from a quick glance, he was nearly done anyways (I did this while walking up to the proctor)

I used to be a leg twitcher, but I'm all right now.

What really bugs me is people who can't control their bladders. They're usually really young or really old too. If you gotta wear a diaper, stay out of public places I say.

You really should have just said something instead of getting all pissy about it. I constantly, I mean constantly shake my legs, and to be honest I hardly ever realize I'm doing it, sometimes I have both legs going and don't even realize it. I've had it happen where I've pissed people off in a test, but why sit there and let it get to you, and then be whiny about it. Say something if he does it for a couple minutes, then maybe he or she can keep a handle on it for the whole exam.

Also, it wasn't me I graduated last year!

I do this all the time also, most of the time, I have no idea I am doing it, the muscle is acting involuntarily.
