“Hi. You’re next.”

“There are just a few simple rules I need to give you.”

“Sit still, don’t move around.”

“Don’t talk to her.”

“Maintain eye contact the entire time you are seated.”

“That’s it. You can go.”

Trying not to forget how your fingers work, you press the keys to navigate yourself to that coveted chair, now empty and waiting for you. I still remember the buzzing panic of this moment in my own playthrough, the sense that something would go wrong at this critical moment. Whether it’s just cognitive dissonance—“There’s no way I would have waited this long for something that’s not worth it”—or whether the experience in the queue is in some weird way transcendent, I can assure you that there is a deep significance here. And others I have spoken to have felt it too. Somehow, despite doing “nothing” for the last several hours, you feel exhausted and elated, ready to take your place in the pantheon of those who have what it takes: time.
