What do you do while waiting in long lines?

[DisneyFreak23]

I am curious to see what some of us do to creatively pass the time while waiting in long lines for rides and M&Gs...besides get impatient.

I would love to offer some really creative idea, but I am part of the majority who just stares at my smartphone the whole time. At least when the parks are busy, I have no problem staying on top of my emails!

Shift from left foot to right foot.

Same as both replies above. Get on my phone while trying to stand or lean in a comfortable position.

Go have a beer and come back later...

I read memos from work and follow up on any questions people email me sometimes. Sometimes I go through my photos so far and edit them. Sometimes I browse social media and this site. And if I'm desperate I talk to the family members I'm in line with.

Start conversations with people. Play the heads up game on my phone. (super fun and you play with others)
I'M SO READY!!!

Ok. Then I shift and ogle.

Smartphone and people watch. Amazing what some people do and wear at the parks

I imagine most of today's guests will have their noses buried in their phones. However, coming from a much older generation, here is what we do/did.
Read a book---paperback, not hard cover. This is still my preferred time passer.
Read people's polo shirts.
People warch, in general.
Start a conversation with someone.
Played silly games with the children.
Had small hand held games or activities to keep the children occupied.

Beat me to it,

I would always look at the map. Over bad over again.
