so he'll stop bouncing it up and down in a ridiculously high speed fashion

no, you should use a nail gun

You're right there is now way the glue will set quick enough

*rummages through shed for nail gun"

Is he nervous?

Watching Riverdance?

Does he have a baby on his knee?

Got new trainers?

Why's he doing it?

My DH does this. And then his slipper falls off with a thump.

I have no idea why it annoys me so much but it makes me want to bury him under the patio.

He's a closet drummer isn't he?

I do that. find a way to get him to spend the engery in a more beneficial way to you both

My DH does this, drives me nuts.

He also has a nail gun

<<mwahahahah>>

Butterball it annoys you because it is annoying and stirs the emotion than make you want to kill and the reason for that is because there is no reason for him doing it (he's watching an highly uninteresting GAA match yawns)

DidEinsteinsMum - you cheeky devil you

Tell him that you read an article about foot tapping causing the penis to shrink due to the foot diverting blood away from it.

My Dp does this when erm frustrated and anxious for a bit lol. Could it be that?

my BIL does this, it no.17 on the why he is annoying list

at giraffes

Most likely BlackLetterDay

so many people trying to get me to have a shag tonight!!!!

I have a groin heamotoma so ever so have to politley decline!!

Dh does this, too. His other annoying habit is scratching his nether regions. Drives me stark raving bonkers.

So, nail gun for the foot, but what about the scratch scratch scratching?

I'd say the nail gun would do for the hand to stop the scratching - seeing you've got it out and all whist he's distracted my his foot being nailed to the floor get his hand

although my dp doesn't do the foot tapping he does the groin rearrangement/ itchy bollocks thing. and once he's finished he just sits staring at the telly with a stupid look on his face and his hand down his pants. maybe i should use superglue instead?
