Longest line ever?

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

Longest line ever?

Damn...i dont see what the fuss is all about but this is a movie showing quite possibly the longest lineup ever in the world. A lineup for what, you ask? These people are lining up to check out a new Apple store in Tokyo. I have no idea why the hell they would wait that long jsut to check out a few imacs Just check out the video, it's insane!!!

Note: Vid is about 30 megs in mov format.

@EB - im no moderator, but shouldn't this be in the "Comical, amusing, and nonsensical thread"?

Uhm....no...it's not a joke, nor is it really funny anyways. It's just something unbelievable.

Hmm. Perplexing.

Perhaps it's somthing like the obsession people seem to have with walmart. (that from my sister. She claims that kids from out of the country see it as some great American icon thing. Can't think why.)

@WLB,

God no! I do not want to be thought of as a Walmart nation! Scouring for deals on already cheapened products while trampling others to get to a drastically reduced DVD player. Walmart can certainly save you money, but it caters specifically to the people who lead small and hopeless lives. That's an opinion, but honestly the people I see that go there seem terribly depressed. The majority are overweight, old, sickly (descriptive not literally), or are recent imports (new citizens, not very PC I know )

It's not the America that I spend my days living in. It's just a segment of the population.

@sS - I know what you mean. I don't even see how it could be thought of as an icon! Plus, why not k-mart?

However, it is nice when all you want is a cheap DVD player, gift for a 7year old, etc.

We've got long lines right now just to get flu shots. Since the panic attack in the media about a few kids dying of the new flu strain we've got shortages all over the country for the flu shot. Long lines for those, in fact you now need reservations.

"Yes, I'd like to reserve a shot."
"Our earliest time is 8:00 next Wednesday."
"Very well."
"How many are in your party?"
"5."
"We'll keep your reservation for up to 15 minutes after the designated time. After that we will have to give your spot to someone else."
"Will you provide menus?"
"No, only the hospital specials. Flu shots, with a side pill of antibiotics. With a possibility for a tetnis shot for dessert."
"Thank you, we'll be there."
"We'll see you soon. Don't go dying on us!"
"Or you'll have to give away our spot, I know."
