also, i am late for german. i have googled this to try and explain myself, and have reminded myself that there is no such word in german as just "late" - there is only "too late".
good job i don't live there, i'd spend my life being too late for everything.

Germans are so German sometimes...
I love the fact that you have the verb "to queue" in English, and we don't have it. However, we have a verb for "to jump the queue" (colarse) and you don't. Shows the way we think.

Sometimes people go before they should, but it also allows for random acts of "NO, after YOU." so it gives people an opportunity to be good and not just obedient.
