Thumb twiddling

Thumb twiddling is an activity that is done with the hands of an individual whereby the fingers are interlocked and the thumbs circle around a common focal point, usually in the middle of the distance between the two thumbs.
While it is an expression of at least a moderate amount of manual dexterity, thumb twiddling is frequently used as an example of a useless, time-wasting activity. It has even been proposed as "the ultimate exercise for the bored and lazy".〔Hayes, Justin Cord. ''747 Things to Do on a Plane: From Lift-off to Landing, All You Need to Make Your Travels Fly By''. F+W Publications, Inc., 2008.〕
==Medical uses==
Thumb twiddling can be used as a simple test for manual dexterity.〔O'Sullivan, Joanne. ''I Don't Care If We're There Yet: The Backseat Boredom Buster''. Sterling Publishing Co Inc, 2008, p. 19.〕
