Like everyone else in the western world, looking at my phone.
Have there been any video games that have done this for an idle animation?
Someone should mod this into Cyberpunk
IIRC, the Sims sometimes check their phones in the Sims 4. Sometimes even while walking somewhere.
At the top of my head I know Overwatch has looking at phone emotes but it's not an automatic idle animation
Going Under does this
This is the most accurate answer for 80% of the people on the internet.
Doomscrolling.
I do have one, I kinda sway/swing my hips/upperbody like this
Picking at my cuticles and cracking all my joints, while staring into the middle distance.
Stands there.
Looks around.
Picks nose.
Stands there.
Wiggles a bit.
Stands there.
Picks absently at a fingernail.
Stands there.
Chokes on air for a minute.
Methodically cracking all of my knuckles.
Take out a bag of seeds and begin to make a little mound of spit out seeds to show how long I've been idle
Standing around awkwardly with my hands in my pockets, because I don't know what else to do with them.
Sleeping. Possibly borrito’d into a blanket.
Overthinking.
Bong rip
drinking a mountain dew. well diet now. well diet doctor pepper. everythings getting expensive. sinces its a game and fantasy let me have a regular mountain dew.
Stroking my beard.
Stroking my c…

chin
The funny thing about my chin, Jules, is that it's located on my cock!
Definitely lighting a cig (don't smoke kids)
Bopping to my own head tunes
Fidgeting
Stretching
Balancing on one leg in different ways
Doom scrolling on my phone.
Sitting at my desk, thinking about how nice it must be outside.
Sitting low on a couch, legs crossed on a stool, bouncing the top foot.
Fiddling with my clothes/hair/anything within reach. For the big "fancy" idle animations that trigger after like 5 minutes of inactivity, I'd bust out my knitting/crochet or a book.
Hit a bong.
Sitting down and bouncing my leg.
Bored toddler.
Slouched forward shoulders, weight on my heels, head back with a pained expression and small crying sounds.
cracking my back
Ass wriggling on a chair: it is hard for me to keep one position
restless leg syndrome
Confused Travolta constantly
put one foot behind the other knee so I'm standing in one foot, then do squats
I fantasise mine is probably like Trevor in GTA. You never know what you're going to get, or where, but it's going to be fun.
Like Trolls in World of Warcraft.
I already have idle animations like video games. See Karlach
Holding my left elbow with my right hand. Idk why, but I always do this gesture. People keep thinking I'm some sort of shy, femboyish think, which, in a transphobic environment does lead to some weird looks.
It looks especially funny with a bright purple bucket hat, dark green oversized sweater (for Brits: jumper), black fanny pack, black leggins, and New Balance shoes. Hmm... maybe I should start wearing this in real life.
I like how you translated sweater, but not fanny pack.
You might want to look up what "fanny" means in British English! Lol
I intentionally didn't do it to avoid potentially witnessing any swear words.
Apologies to all the Brits who came across my comment.
I have adhd and my idle stim is shifting my weight from one foot to the other. I'm like a living metronome. Drives people crazy.
Flipping balisong or something
Vaping and pulling at my beard whilst stood with an uncomfortably wide gate and shifterly looking around every several seconds.
