credit agencies.
listen and navigate useless automated prompt then wait an hour for some crony to inform you that you have no immediate control of your credit due to a system error on their end.

On a 4.5 hour drive home, I got caught in a full stop on I-55 for 4.5 hours, thus doubling my drive time. I guess there were fatalities and a great deal of vehicular carnage, so I didn’t complain about the wait. I knew plenty others were having a far worse day than me.

Back in like 2007? I started a line in front of a best buy to wait for the wii console release it was about a 3 day wait. I was the only one there for the first day, but some other people showed the next day. We had a pretty good time.

Waited around 5 hours for a photo on the iron throne from Game of Thrones. This was between seasons 6 and 7 so before the show was completely assassinated. I called my sister from a town 90 miles away and she got a train over straight away, took over 2 hours but I was still in line by the time she showed up lol. Looking back it was definitely not worth it but I have a cool pic of me dabbing on the throne so it’s something at least.
