Random question: What silly, pretentious little mannerisms have you consciously adopted and had stick?
I like to decisively drop/throw down objects when I'm done using them. Never in a context to do damage to them or anything else, though. I picked it up from the way Dan Aykroyd throws down his empty pistols at the beginning of Grosse Point Blank. There is just something about the economy of movement (and therefore purpose) that I love, instantly switching from one perfectly planned task to the next. That is how my idealized self-image always acts.

...I fucking love that movie. It's more poignant moments are the basis for my own Under Pressure.
And to give you an answer, I laugh nervously/firmly in response to peoples' comments in normal conversation. I acknowledge them and what they are saying but even when I do have something to add or say to that, I still laugh.
That and I copy little nuances and behaviors from people close to me, when I'm in their presence. Friends have said lately that my roommate and I have become essentially the same person. XD
