*wide grin* Good point, and in fact, now that you mention it, that is exactly how I used to frame it--- "Don't waste my time!" And then for a variety of reasons, including but not limited to, as you say, the fact that I can sit there and read a book being a thing, I poked around in my objections to waiting in places and realized it was the zoo-animal thing that was what was actually standing on my last nerve. (Why airports have never triggered that from me, I'm not actually sure, except that it seems like most people are more blessedly self-absorbed and too busy getting to where they need to go to give me the fish-in-a-glass-bowl feeling and also the "being stranded somewhere" thing is apparently a big enough deal in my mind to cancel out the zoo-animal thing.)
