I used to feel this way because I grew up in Los angeles and felt it was a tourist trap situation but then I lived by Maru in Los Feliz for a couple years and that place always has a line and I work from home and I realized it’s such a fun social activity even if you don’t speak to anyone. It’s like micro-dosing Disneyland. Long queue with a treat at the end, with a handful of random people all at the same place at the same time for the same reason. It became a sweet break in my solo work day to do this. There’s something beautiful about lines to me now
