National pastime?

Pastime as defined in the dictionary.
"An activity that occupies one's spare time pleasantly".
Not sure if I would consider queuing pleasant but it would definitely be considered an activity that occupies a bulk of Singaporeans' time. I'm queuing up for Nasi Lemak. Check out the long queue that snakes all the way to the opposite side. Nuts... hehehehe. But ok lah... the food is worth the effort.

Bo pian lah. Everything we do involves queuing... be it waiting to see the doctor, buying a new mobile phone, getting movie tickets, boarding a plane, etc. Even our other national pastime... watching the Singapore Football team at the National Stadium involves queuing.
