lol, it's funny how many others do this... I do it as well.

A little off-topic but... I'm curious, if you see "obstacles" and "boundaries" when driving, do you all have issues with touching other people's things? Kind of the same type of deal with the imaginary boundary lines?

I do this all the time. I'll sit on the ground outside despite the fact that the neighbor has 2-3 chairs out front and is always telling me I can sit in them if I want to. I have to be invited to sit in the chairs before I do so, and even then, I'll keep asking if it is okay. If I'm using someone's pen, I'll keep saying over and over "I'm almost done, just one more second", and if I take too long I apologize over and over...

Sorry, I'm not sure whether or not this is too far off topic. To me, it makes sense that they are similar, lol.

When I was a kid I did this all the time. I didn't really imagine the car jumping anything, but I had a Sonic the Hedgehog or a ninja, running along side the road jumping everything next to the road. Sometimes they would chop down the mailboxes and other signs with wooden posts instead of jumping them. I think I mainly did it because there was little else to do while sitting in the car.

I did the same thing when I walked. I would have my fingers running alongside jumping over the cracks in brick walls and leaping past doorways. Sometimes I would walk a different route because it was easier for my finger man to make that journey.
