National pastimes


So I’m in line at immigration at EWR. The officer in the line next to mine leaves his station and the woman there starts looking around. Now, I wasn’t paying attention and wasn’t standing all the way up to the red line, even though I’m next up. So she waltzes over and gets in my line. I decide to let it slide and just move up behind her so it doesn’t happen with anyone else. Anyway, she’s through in about 30 seconds so no big deal. I walk up to the officer and say hello, and then this exchange takes place:

Immigration officer: Did that person just cut in front of you?
Me: Yeah, but whatever…
IO: You shoulda punched her right in the face! This is AMERICA!
Me: …….

Welcome home?
