Fidget spinners before fidget spinners were invented
I feel so seen
I feel called out
is that something people do?
So long as there are absolutely no follow up questions: yes, it is.
How’s your day?
How dare you.
I’m glad I found your comment! This thread had me questioning my sanity - I have never, in my 50+ years on this Earth, encountered this phenomenon!
Yep… because unmedicated ADD.
You don’t need ADD to like the clickety sound and feeling.
But it helps!
… but…but… it feeeela so good to do it.
That’s how I broke my remotes battery cover :)
so fidget spinner should have been fidget slider clicker
Yeh those sliding type battery covers, I find those pretty irresistible myself. Knew it was a bad idea and likely breaking the remote before its time when I had those but sometimes it was almost unconscious and I’d just find myself removing the cover and sliding it back on without even realising. The ADHD is strong I guess. I haven’t had a TV whose remote had that style of battery cover for a long time luckily. The current one just isn’t even remotely :) satisfying to remove the cover and put it back on again so it’s safe from me.
My son did this to a TV remote to the point the back wouldn’t stay on. After a year or so I bought another one. Every now and then he will do this but I think he learned his lesson.
I have so many fidgets and always go back to pens and household items
My latest TV has usb-c and solar to recharge the batteries.
And then I press the mute button on the side on accident and everyone really gets mad at me
Joke’s on you! My remote has a pin that needs to be pushed in like the SIM tray on cellphones, there’s no opening it without something to push that in every time!
You can, as long as I don’t have to hear it.
