I don't know about any of you but I can't stop ripping up any paper in sight and rolling it into balls in my fingers. The feeling relieves some sensory compulsion I have and it's calming. Anyone else get this?

ripping up paper, then folding it, even the tiniest bit, to the smallest fold possible
once at a bbq-do i shredded quite a large chunk of the paper tablecloth doing so
for me it's being bored and then it goes on without much thought

among all silly things,
now i must point at the exact middle of the video-timebar when watching it, another fidgetting thing

lol, when I have a napkin, I usually find myself ripping it up. I find it kind of relaxing. The thing is, I don't always do it on a conscious level, it just kind of happens when the napkin is in my hand.
