Nope, not really. Unless you count making comments to myself on occasion when I'm working on something, which could hardly be called a stim under the circumstances I do it in.

When I was younger I use to with my Month make the sound that a V8 Dragster Makes because I liked the noise and vibration it made.

Mostly mimicking the sounds of machinery or animals.

I do a whole lot of the things mentioned by others in this thread. I have quite a few of my own vocal stims, as well. For example, I often growl in my throat, which has the dual benefit of sounding nice and feeling good. I also do a sort of fluttering whistle that has a bubbly sound and feel in my throat. Both also annoy the hell out of my girlfriend.

I often make little nonsense noises like deedeedee, lalala, booboobooboo and so on. Not just when I'm stressed, but often when I'm relaxed as well.

I do a lot of vocal stimming, scripting, humming, and other noises I make with my vocal chords. I still am highly sensitive to noises, so it is only "acceptable" if I am the one making the noise. :)

I agree if it's me tapping with my fingers making a noise it's fine. If it's someone else STOP IT!! !! ! YOU'RE ANNOYING! My family don't get that it's annoying for me to hear others do it and yet I DO it. :-)

I tap either of or both of my feet almost constantly
And i say random funny things.
But i can't handle when other people does it (double moral for the win?)

I can't handle when one of my friends is breathing because you can hear it
2m away in my classroom i even once bit my hand hard because i couldn't take it...

This may sound strange (not sure if other Aspies do this sort of thing or not) but I tend to randomly say the name of the person or people that I am obsessed with (I'm the type that gets obsessed with people - not films, facts or objects). Does this count as a stim?

I do this at random times. I have no idea why. It just feels good.

My almost 6 yr old son loves to make all kinds of random noises---one of his favorites is "lululululululululu"
He also says very random things and makes up phrases. If we laugh at them, they usually stick. His latest one is 'ketchup zooanna" I have no idea where that came from. He is also obsessed with the recordings on the telephone, and will repeat them over and over until it drives us crazy. "We're sorry, your call cannot be completed as dialed, please hang up and try your call again!"

I do that to my pets and other peoples pets......like if I'm going for walk and a dog in someones yard starts growling or barking at me I do it back, I've gotten some odd and sometimes horrified looks for that.
