Except it was just a joke from the beloved harlequin, are you a patient person?
Oh, and could a mod please edit the "Doi" to "Do I"? Thank you.

Moved to Gen Chat as it's more relevant here than The Lounge. :)
Also, it depends. If I'm waiting for my computer to boot up, or something to download... no!
No, Kefka. You look like a maître d' of a Chuck E. Cheese on acid.
I'm sat on the bus having just missed another. I only had to wait another 7 minutes but I was still a bit annoyed. So I'm probably not as patient as I would like to think!
in this age of immediate satisfaction, no, i'm not patient. give me my instant gratification
I am a very patient individual.
Not at all. When I want something I want it right now.
Then I sigh and wait.
I got pissed when I clicked reply and had to wait five seconds for this page to load...
So no.
I could give Catelyn Tully some pointers about waiting.
That's how goddamn patient I am.

"Wait," he says. Do I look like a waiter?
That was my very first sig here on EoFF (I even made it myself). It sure brings back memories.
On topic, I'm somewhat impatient when it comes to waiting, but I usually don't complain about it.
Been a waitress in Australia for almost a year now and living in a small beautiful sub tropical paradise... I feel like I am on perpetual holiday. Time simply does not exist.
I can wait 2 hours in the waiting room of my doctors if necessary but when I'm about to get a Final Fantasy from Japan every day is a tour through hell.
So except my absolute hobbies I am very patient.
i am not remotely patient in any way
I think it really depends on the situation.Quote:

Generally speaking I'm extremely patient.
I'm usually last off the bus/plane/etc, last one to go up to the bar, last to go up to the buffet (there's always plenty - most everyone follows the Quina Rules when providing food). If there's a queue to get in somewhere I'll go somewhere else until the queue dies down. If I do have to be in a queue because there's no danger of it shrinking, I'll get in it, shut up, and play with my phone. While everyone else is moaning and tutting.
I neither enjoy nor see the point of joining "the rush" for things and kind of fighting to be first. Probably too many bad memories of the school dinner queue and everyone pushing and shoving. I'd rather wait an extra 5 minutes, it won't kill me and it means I don't have to join the whole "pigs around a trough" scenario :)
However:
Same, that's when I do get impatient.Quote:

And finally, if I am genuinely pressed for time (rare) and people are dawdling. The obvious example I can think of is buying my lunch from the Co-Op.
