French queue

A line of people who don't follow rules of typical line-courtesy found elsewhere. An anarchic assembling for entrance at a door or gate. This is a normal behavior in France. The word pairing is an ironic construction, because it is really the opposite of a queue.
The skyway door opened and the passengers converged in an impatient French queue, shuffling slowly forward.
