How much do you hate waiting in line?

Yesterday evening, I got a yearnin' for a chocolate sundae. I hadn't had one for years and was dying for one. It was warm out--not hot, so I figured the Dairy Queen shop shouldn't be too busy. I walked the ten or so blocks there and as I approached, I could see that there was a queue of people all the way out the door. It took me about .001 seconds to decide to walk back home. I think I would rather have a candle burn the underside of my foot than wait in line like cattle. If they were giving away cars, my reaction would be the same. Back home, the pralines and cream ice cream in my fridge tasted better than usual.
