    I don’t think we Americans are bad at it, but I don’t think we’ve got anything on the English or the Japanese (bonus, and pardon the links to the bad place), not enough to consider it a markable trait of ours. I suspect we’re probably middle to high-middle in queuing globally, although I won’t claim to be the most world-traveled or knowledgeable person.

      Yeah, my experience is primarily from noticing how prevalent line-skipping was in Germany in my childhood compared to the US. As I said, people do it, but it’s VERY frowned upon.
