The length of time was the line?Twenty minutes. I’m not a really patient individual, and I do not have the time to wait on the line generally.

I like to just hang out outside and do a lot of people-watching and eavesdropping. If I hear something good, I’ll compose it down, and often that’ll find its method into a script.

How come?It’s sort of weirdly pleasurable. It’s this transient area that
you have. It’s likesitting in the train when you do not
want to be productive. Lisa Fa zlija Architecture student, Glen Ridge

, Greenpoint
Are there other lines you’ll wait on?I reside in Greenpoint, and Radio Bakery exists. I wait on that line regularly.

a native New Yorker, what do you consider these long lines?I’m

Aditi Chatradhi Law student, Bedford-Stuyvesant Do you pertain to this yogurt spot
