A mental and physical state of readiness to leave at any moment — shoes on, bag in hand, eyes on the exit, and waiting for the slightest excuse to dip. Being in bounce mode means you've already mentally checked out; you're just waiting for the polite window. It can be triggered by a bad vibe, a boring conversation, a situation that's going sideways, or simply the recognition that peak fun has passed. Bounce mode is your internal bounce check running on a continuous loop.
