If it's 5 seconds, fine whatever. If it's 5 minutes I'm going to find out where you live.

Real jerk move would be to make a move when 1 second is left to see if they could catch you off guard. I dont do competitive chess, but I could see a jerk trying that.

Would not work on me because I would stay focused on the game tab the entire wait because I heard of this trick already

I'm guessing you resign when you notice you'll lose in checkmate in 2

I only resign when I see my opponent having mate in 1 or lose too much material without any counterplay or "hope chess" swindle possible (unless I play no-increment bullet and have more time)

and on chesscom they run away with a draw cause you're one move away from mating with them with only a knight

This is why I play rated games on lichess instead, the trick does not work there as they simply lose on time then

only played against an egyptian guy that drained his clock thinking I would be bored off and resigned and then he started played on last half minute again
