| I don't but, I catch myself jutting my lower jaw forward when playing video games or mixing. I don't realize I'm doing it until I take a break or stop altogether, and then I notice my jaw hurts like mad. |

That sounds pretty bad, actually.
I went in to an orthodontist's office today, hoping to get Invisalign to fix my underbite... and she dropped that bomb on me. Now I'll be needing orthognathic surgery.  |

| I do this ing stupid "dodge" thing when I play video games. Like... in a shooter, if a rocket comes flying past me, I dodge my head as if it's actually coming at me. I can't seem to control it. Pisses me off. |

A significant amount of people do this, actually. Hahaha... It's just called "getting TOO into the game". It's a great feeling, though. It's like you're always on the edge of your seat. :) |

That reminds me of watching adults play Nintendo when they'd move the controller in the direction they want the on screen character to move. |

I used to do that when I was a kid...now the only time I move the controller is when I'm firing it against the wall. |

Back when I used to play video games I had a horrrible temper, especially in the dorms when we had head-to-head NCAA football matchups. I managed to knock 3 PS controllers out of commission due to giving them a toss around the room :p |

| I have the opposite. My bottom jaw is smaller than it is supposed to be. |

| Are you sure your jaw's not normal size and your head is bigger than it's supposed to be??? |

I have the same bite as this. My lower jaw is back a bit; Like a miss bite. My jaw is pretty flexible though, & usually sits forward with the top incisor teeth. Sometimes I get lazy & it slips back & flush up against the top molars. |
