I discuss how queuing for hours can be a virtue instead of a social disgrace.
it's definitely a virtue of the clueless. for example, i was directed by a cute jap lady to go to gate 47 at narita to get my next boarding pass with ana. thinking there was an ana customer service counter other than the gate, i went searching for it at the whole airport and found nothing but the info desk. the info desk lady, who was cuter, directed me to go to gate 47. so i went, thinking this must be one all-important mo-fo gate. when i got there, the gate was just another boarding gate, with no one there. so i waited, and waited. and then i scanned around and saw in a hidden corner a set of counters with several airlines' monitors advertising their respective logos. hmmm, that must be it! but there were only 2 ladies, one servicing a queue and the other chobolan idle. i trudged to the queue, by natural instinct, and line up. and waited again. when my turn was called, the jap lady behind the counter (she's a lot prettier than the 1st two) told me she couldn't handle ana and asked me to go to the next line which was empty and served by the ultimate beauty of beauties. ah so desu ne, there was a small sign that read "ana connections here." so i asked the extreme beauty, "what about the 1st line?" and she replied, "mista, that is fo ayeru kanada. dis wano is fo ana." "ah! so desu ne!" the other folks in the 1st line started shifting to the 2nd counter upon hearing our conversation. they were all, including me, virtuous and compliant. i wasted some time, but at least i got 4 erections out of the experience. but be warned, unlike ang mo women, they're quite flat....very much like the airport they work in. :*:
