As a kid, my method of passing time when I was told to wait a half hour or an hour was to just play back shows, with commercials, in my imagination because I knew they were 30-60 minutes long. Shit worked, too!

I love that😄 How well do you do it now?

30-60 minutes isn't that long to me anymore. I'm usually impatiently waiting months or weeks at a time now. Currently waiting for Shadow of the Erdtree to drop in 8 days. All I can do for these lengths is imagine that WaitMate is real.

That’s so cool that you can do it longer now!
