Murphy's Law of sitting down

"You can stand in line till da cows come home and da slow customer at da service-desk is still not gonna budge, but da moment you decide to plop down and comfortably settle yer tushie on da floor, DAT'S precisely when da line will start to move again, and then you'll hafta hastily "up, periscope!", putting even MORE strain on yer achy leg-muscles!

Carrying a skateboard to sit on can allow you to somewhat alleviate da "Murphy's Law of sitting down" debacle, since you can scooch yerslef forward more easily without actually having to groaningly stand up again, but unfortunately, many stores/offices take a dim view of bringing wheeled toys into their checkout-lanes or waiting-rooms! :P
