People standing in line to do various tasks. Usually a comedy trope, the joke being one or more of the following: The line is insufferably long or service slow, often to such a degree that people grow beards, raise families etc.; May involve cutting or place-saving; The task itself is... unorthodox; "It's a queue! It must be important! Let's queue!" People see others standing in line and assume that whatever they're waiting for is important, or at the very least worth the wait; Queuing for something that should be urgent, quick or will be unpleasant; Spending a great deal of time (a significant part of an episode, if not its entirety) queuing for something only for it to be the wrong queue, or for the till at the end to shut just as the character(s) get to the front. Frequent butts of this gag are banks, amusement parks, the Department of Motor Vehicles, or any similarly over-bureaucratic institution. If people plan for a ridiculously long wait in line, it's a Ticket-Line Campout. If the queue uses sequential tickets instead of simple position in line, it's Take a Number. If the line is filled with tryhards desperate to get inside an exclusive place or event, it's Wannabe Line. |

Adventure Time: In the episode "Return to the Nightosphere", the Nightosphere has a lot of lines. Finn and Jake wait in one line for 13 days. Also, it turns out that Princess Bubblegum has a lengthy line of suitors. One of them, Braco, apparently took his father's place in line when the older man died. |

The line for Worlebury-juxta-Mare in Sunless Skies is absurdly long. If you actually choose to wait in line instead of bribing your way past, it takes multiple days before you're admitted. However, those pale in from of the queues seen in the Blue Kingdom, which have been described as extended to multiple streets and the rooftops. | |

In Sluggy Freelance, Zoe gets kidnapped by evil cloners, and Torg and Riff go through a Lock-and-Load Montage and go after her. Zoe survives through a whole nerd-zombie outbreak and finally escapes from the cloning facility. Where were Torg and Riff?

Gilmore Girls: In the revival, Rory takes on an assignment about lines as an attempt at getting her foot in the door at a magazine. She and Lorelai pretty much wander around talking to people who are waiting in various lines. At one point, they follow a line to its beginning and discover that it isn't even a line; a few friends were eating lunch outside their building, some other people somehow got the idea that they were waiting for something to open and got behind them to see what it was, and it snowballed from there. It says a lot about the loss of Rory's journalistic ambition that she laughs this off and moves on, rather than making it the centerpiece of her article. | |

The Simpsons: Moe goes to register as a sex offender and complains "There's always a line." Patty and Selma work at the DMV and comment, "Some days, we don't let the line move at all. We call those weekdays." Also used in "Selma's Choice"; Bart tells Lisa a mammoth Duff Gardens queue has to be for something fun. It's actually for the complaints department. In "Brush with Greatness", there's a long line for the H2Whoa water slide. Bart and Lisa cut to the front by claiming she's a lost child and he's helping her; Homer cuts by claiming to be a "line inspector". In "Wedding for Disaster", Marge and Homer are waiting in line for a new marriage certificate, when they both decide to get married properly, they both go to leave, when they're accosted by a security guard, telling them that that's the line to leave (cut to a line as long as the rest). |

In the 1954 Looney Tunes short "Wild Wife", as part of Marsha's busy day, she goes to the bank to deposit some checks, and finds herself at the back of an extremely long queue because there's only one teller open. When a second window opens, she hurries over, but is beaten to it by an old lady depositing $200 in pennies. As the old lady counts them out one by one, the original queue is quickly taken care of. Marsha rushes back over... only for another older woman depositing a large amount of pennies to instantly steal the first spot. | |

A regular part of player missions in the RPG Paranoia is battling your way through the queue (sometimes literally) to pick up the useless equipment you have been assigned. A typical example: A Troubleshooter arrives at the PLC to pick up a Left-Handed Oxygen Dihydrogenator, only to find the line reaches out the door. Arriving at the desk (eventually) the PLC clerk asks for the Troubleshooter's 386-XM-16 form, properly filled out in triplicate. Troubleshooter does not have said form. The form is obtained, an adventure in itself. Back to the end of the line. She gets to the desk again, whereupon she is informed the form is correct, but PLC don't have the LHOD and to come back the next Daycycle. She camps out overnight in the line, only to hear that the LHOD is now in stock, but is not available at her security clearance level and she can't have it without committing treason. Now, the Troubleshooter may now do three things, arranged in decreasing order of safety and increasing order of Fun and Excitement: 1) Potentially incurring the wrath of Friend Computer by going out unequipped, 2) Going to the Infrared Market or 3) Sparking a riot in the PLC facility to sneak in and steal the Dihydrogenator, and likely anything else that isn't nailed down. | |

The We Bare Bears short "Panda's Dream". Some guy cuts in front of Panda while he's waiting to buy a new video game. Panda takes increasingly extreme action, which turns out to just be an Imagine Spot each time: First, Panda calls him out, and the rest of the line applauds him. Panda calls the police, who arrest the line cutter, and the president shows up to give Panda a ton of rewards. Panda starts dancing to K-Pop, and a huge shockwave blasts the line cutter into space. |

Sesame Street: In one skit, Kermit tries to interview some people who are waiting in line to watch a game. He talks to the woman in the back, but she assumes that he's also waiting to watch the game so she can't be last. A similar thing happens when Kermit tries to interview the man at the front of the line but this time it's a woman in the middle of the line who believes Kermit is first. To add to the confusion, the man who's second in line believes he ought to be first because initially, he was, but he went off somewhere. One song is about some chickens being taught how to wait in line. |

The World of Warcraft Looking For Dungeon system. Introduced in patch 3.3, the system guarantees anyone a group with a dungeon cross server. At level 80 during Wrath of the Lich King, it rarely took 20 minutes to find a group, even for DPS during off peak, but during 85, the DPS roles had to wait for upwards of an hour. No wonder why the term "Queue Queue" could describe those many players' reactions. In addition to your chosen role, the time you have to wait can depend on the time of the day, when in the week you were doing it, and sometimes, when in an expansion (queue times for DPS were twice as long at the beginning of Mists of Pandaria as they are now). |

While standing there, they observe several hapless Svenjaya (the local semi-Slave Race) being ordered to move from the head of the line to the back. Offended, Paul intervenes on their behalf, puts them back where they belong, and scares the crap out of the people being annoying. This act of kindness, one of several, ultimately pays off for the four. | |

Played for drama in Obsidian, with the Bureau Realm's "Time Face" holding a long, empty queue line, and several benches around the area, all leading up to a booth marked as the department of "Immediate Action", and you have to go here to get a document approved to fix the bridge to the Bureau Chief's office. But when you hand the form over, you have to fix the Bureau's clock, only to find that after you do this, a built-up backlog causes the approval to take a year to go through. And at that point, the Vidbot manning the booth closes it. | |

Schlock Mercenary based a whole story arc around this. Luna's bureaucracy was so slow, and the queue so immensely long, only the oldest people in line remembered it ever moving.

One of the first episodes of Chowder involved Shnitzel and Chowder spending nearly the entire episode waiting in line at the bank. Not only did poor Shnitzel have to deal with long, slow-moving lines and customers who were depositing huge amounts of change, he also had to put up with Chowder's shenanigans. | |

From Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice, holy man/prosecutor Nahyuta Sahdmadhi decided to sample the local cuisine during his first visit to Japanifornia, and went to a burger joint that had been recommended on a local TV show. Of course, because it was recommended on TV, the line was enormous, and he was waiting in it for well over an hour, but he claims it was child's play compared to his monk training. | |

In Mass Effect, on Feros you encounter an enemy Krogan attempting to access restricted information, whose rant on how stupid the machine is gets interrupted when the computer warns him that there is a queue forming for the use of the console. Said queue, of course, being composed of the most badass person in the galaxy and two compatriots. | |

Seinfeld had an episode queueing for a table in a restaurant. And then there was the Soup Nazi episode, but that queue moved reasonably fast and efficiently; there, the joke was the abuse everyone was willing to put up with from the Soup Nazi, because his soup was just that good. In Real Life, the line moved fast because the Soup Nazi yelled at people who took too long to order. Hungry people stuck at the end of a forty-person line populated by cornfed tourists probably felt he had a point. | |

There is an episode of Drake & Josh where most of the episode is about the brothers (and Megan) waiting in line for a rollercoaster. They finally get to ride, but beforehand, they are sent to the back of the line (if memory serves, twice — once for cutting in line, once for fighting), get into a fight with the mascot, and get stuck by a bratty kid with a mom who won't do anything about her child's behavior. | |

30 Rock: The first episode opened with a sequence wherein a man ignores a line at a hot dog stand. Liz bought all the hot dogs to keep him, and the people who promptly lined up behind him, from having any because It's the Principle of the Thing. Of course, then she didn't have anything to do with all those hot dogs she had bought. This is Liz's Establishing Character Moment. Another good one in "Tracy Does Conan": Kenneth is sent to pick up Tracy's pills from a pharmacy to assuage the apparent psychotic break he's having in time for him to go on TV. During the frantic ramp-up to the moment Tracy has to go on, there's the expected cut to Kenneth anxiously peering over people's heads from the back of a really long line... and then an old lady comes up and he graciously lets her cut in front of him. |

The Loud House: Waiting in line for the bathroom is a Running Gag: One lyric in the Ending Theme is "Stand in line to take a pee." In "In Tents Debate", Lori, Leni, Lola, Lucy, and Lily try to convince Lincoln that Dairyland (a milk-themed amusement park) is worse than the beach by having him wait in line to go to the bathroom and then putting a sign saying, "This ride is temporarily closed" on the toilet. In "The Mad Scientist", Lisa is impressed that the bathroom at the science institute has no lines. In "Pipe Dreams", the parents get fed up with the bathroom lines and build a second, secret bathroom. In "Schooled!", Lincoln cuts the bathroom line by using a homemade zip-line. In "Kick the Bucket List", Lincoln wants to ride a roller coaster called 'Fly Me to the Moo', but the line is ridiculously long. In "Mall of Duty", Lincoln and his younger sisters are waiting in line to get one of Lincoln's books signed. The girls are very bored, and Lincoln tries entertaining them with smoothies and games of I Spy, but they don't find those very interesting. He also tries cutting in line by bribing the man in front of him with a banana milkshake, but the guy is allergic to bananas. |

Solar Opposites: "Pupa's Big Day" reveals that Terry's favorite hobby is standing in long lines, to the point an entire fandom culture has formed around it. He gets the other Solars to wait in a line with him and coaches him on the etiquette of standing in line, despite Korvo finding the whole ordeal boring, instead wishing he could watch the offscreen antics of the Pupa turning giant. To make matters worse, he meets Terry's "line husband" Linus and becomes competitive and jealous. In a couple of subplots, Jesse falls in love with the back of someone's head while in line, and Yumyulack switches over to wait in a faster-moving line that turns out to be a marathon. | |

SpongeBob SquarePants: "Rock Bottom", has SpongeBob in line at the bus station in Rock Bottom, when one of the locals spits out an egg onto his head, which quickly hatches three little critters that cut ahead of him in line. In "Roller Cowards", Spongebob and Patrick use the long line for the roller coaster as a stalling tactic because they're both scared to go on it. They also accidentally get in line for the bathroom at one point. In "Bubble Buddy", some fish complain that they were made to wait in line while Spongebob's man-shaped bubble was in the bathroom. In "The Abrasive Side", Spongebob is established as a doormat by letting everyone cut in line for the bus despite promising Patrick he'll be first in line. |

Afterlife (1996): The "Switchback Mountains" Envy punishment initially seems very simple: Just several queues starting at the very bottom of an enormous mountain, and once you reach the top, you're getting right out of Hell. The trick comes in a bit of applied Helltech making sure all the adjacent lines look like they're moving faster than yours. And since this is a punishment for the Envious, the ensuing utter chaos as they try to skip lines, cut in and even throw hands over their position in the queue ensures this is more of a Self-Inflicted Hell than most. It's explicitly stated you'd be out in about a year if you just stayed put, but most of the Envious take thousands of years if they ever even get there. | |

In Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Hilda and Zelda go to the Magical Emergency Department in order to save Harvey from the Wicked Witch only to be met with a line. They inquire an elderly woman as to how long the wait is and are told (in a rather senile tone) that the woman's son is 58 years old. When Hilda points out that doesn't answer her question, the old woman informs her that said son was born in the line. Cue various and sundry waiting and bureaucratic jokes. | |
