Has anyone ever started "literally shaking" in your presence and why did it happen?

[Lemmingwiser]

I once got into a discussion with a friend about race and iq and he started shaking and after he had calmed down from his panic attack, he softly asked me if this meant I wanted to genocide people.

I'm curious if anyone else has had the experience of an adult literally shaking.

 

[The Hero of Kvatch]

Yeah. It was pretty cold outside, so we were shivering like shitting dogs.

My brother has a seizure disorder.

Saw a guy in a bar drop a couple of water-soluble tablets in his mouth and fake an epileptic fit once.

I honestly remember it happening as a kid mostly from excitement. Like anticipating getting on a roller coaster or seeing a movie you are really looking forward to.

Never seen it happen in the way its talked about online with adults losing their shit over politics.

Wait. For what purpose?

 

[Shig O'nella]

Yes. Just before I shot him.

Guess it was a reasonable enough response, under the circumstances.

 

[Tequila Jong]

Wait. For what purpose?

Just for a laugh. The staff threw him out and he disappeared into the night.

Saw someone shaking with anger once.

You said yes, right?

Twice that I can think of. The first was a similar story to your own wherein I directed a ‘friend’ of mine to review some crime statistics from the FBI. He proceeded to get quite steamed and declared that he once saw the opposite statistics in an almanac once. I called him out on this seeing as he could neither produce the almanac in question or specifically recall the data he was presented with that led him to his conclusion. He began trembling and I walked away satisfied in my belief that I had caught him in yet another lie. It wasn’t until later that I would realize that he was for all intents and purposes someone who seemed to only argue in bad faith for concepts and historical inaccuracies which he seen in articles online. This is to say the man so far as I know could not conceive of his own opinions.

The second instance I believe I’ve talked about on this site before. A former friend who like the man in the instance above was a terminally online victim of TDS had been bragging about how good he was at Smash Ultimate, a game I had yet to play at the time since I had grown disenchanted with the brand and it’s toxic fanbase. I informed him that I used to play Brawl and WiiU competitively at which point he doubled down and bragged harder. So I asked him which character he thought was the worst. He said Little Mac… and so I proceeded to beat him for actual hours with Little Mac while using a controller with a drift issue. He actually started crying by the time we were finished. Never played any game with him after that.

 

[I've Seen Some More Shit]

I met Michael J. Fox once.

 

[Manul Otocolobus]

I've had this happen, but it mostly involved the other person getting so angry at me telling them off they can barely stop themselves from punching me.

 

[VargReallyDidNothingWrong]

My dog has literally shaken in my presence before (he's afraid of thunderstorms). I just cuddle him closer and pet him till he calms down.

 

[Unsane]

All my victims shake, but that's part of the fun.

Your mom when I brought her to the Bonezone

There was an incident in the football locker room involving a guy half my size where I basically had to tell him to fuck the fuck off before I murdered him with my bare hands. I was literally literally shaking, with a level of anger that I don't believe I've experienced before or since. It was something he did, not said, but not anything gay lol

Many times in fights, gambling, or other high intensity situations. Adrenaline will do that to you.

They dropped a lot of ecstasy at an outdoor festival. MDMA has a hyperthermic effect on the body so you don't really notice the cold (also why you need to remember to drink water on E... that and all the dancing). Around 2-3 am in the morning they were coming down but didn't have a coat or something with them (which is why you should always have a festi-coat, preferably something flashy and furry). They were literally shacking. Actually seen it a couple of times, usually with the girls who tend to go out in bikinis and fishnets.

Before I tell you, can you hold onto this clamp that's connected to a car battery for a bit?
