Originally opened as a "waiting space" for homeless men, the Secure Waiting Space is a Hennepin County funded overflow shelter operated by Catholic Charities. It is located at 1000 Currie Avenue North, Minneapolis, MN 55403.
It houses around 150-200 men a night. The first floor of the shelter consists of thin mats on a floor, and the second floor is called Pay-for-Stay. Beds are around $4.00 a night, and men must be sober to stay on the second floor.
Shelter workers and case managers refer to Secure Waiting Space as "1000 Currie" or "Secure Waiting," but homeless people almost always call it tramp camp.

One of the most popular Cyanide and Happiness cartoon about a man who discovers that he can run very, very fast, and makes the most of it. Well...he does at first.
"Waiting For The Bus" starts with a man who is...well, take a wild guess what he's doing, why don't you.
When the bus comes, it speeds past him. The man runs to get the bus driver to stop. The bus driver points out that he is in the same predicament as the bus in the movie "Speed." It is at this moment that the man realizes he can run very, very fast. The bus driver gives a brief motivational speech telling him to make the most of his odd skill, which he immediately does.
Things go well at first. The man (Now called the 50MPH Man) immediately becomes a star. He wins races left and right, and unexpectedly finds his true love when he crashed into her after a race. But things take a dark turn when he receives an invitation to race in the Indy 500...and he accepts.
A man who can run at 50MPH can't hold a candle to cars that go more than 200MPH, which is something he learns the hard way. The 50MPH man loses a race for the first time as a result, and his life spirals down. He is arrested for attempted robbery, and his wife divorces him.
Several years pass. The 50MPH man sits alone in the training area where he first honed his skills. He then commits suicide by running full-speed into the stadium wall. The very same bus driver who inspired him to begin his career learns about his passing, and stops to admire the place where The 50MPH Man started and ended his life.
Finally, the bus explodes, killing him.
The End!

"Waiting Simulator" is a term used to describe games, particularly mobile games, that utilize a mechanic of artificially delaying player progress through time-based activities, such as the hatching of an egg, the completion of a building upgrade, or the acquisition of in-game resources. This mechanic is often used to encourage players to spend real money on in-game currency or items in order to speed up the process and avoid the wait.
The term "Waiting Simulator" is used derisively, as it implies that the game is more about waiting than actually playing, and that the player's enjoyment is hindered by the constant delays. It is often used to critique the design choices of mobile games, as this mechanic can be seen as a way to increase revenue through microtransactions rather than improving the gameplay experience.
In summary, "Waiting Simulator" is a pejorative term used to describe games that prioritize time-based activities and delay player progress as a means of monetization, ultimately hindering the player's enjoyment of the game.

"I tried playing that new mobile game, but it turned out to be a total waiting simulator. I spent more time waiting for my buildings to upgrade than actually playing the game."
"The game was enjoyable at first, but once I hit the paywall, it turned into a waiting simulator. I had to wait for days to get enough resources to advance, or pay real money to speed up the process."
"I don't like games that use the waiting simulator mechanic. It feels like a cheap way to make money and takes away from the overall gaming experience."
