Oh how they love to stand huffing in line as time bears down on bearing time.

you're not even trying, are you?

Just a little, but I wasn't doing well at all.

Just looked up 'hoi polloi' (greek, huh?)

Still not sure what 'bearing time' is.

I can tell that the word-play is cute, but the meaning is lost on me.

sorry, color me oblivious, still. :/

The only connotation to huffing I've got is inhalants. And/or, breathing in the cold. And/or the big bad wolf...

I read in a Penthouse once (might've been fiction) 'bout a gal who temped at one of them offices. Just what I was reading made me want to throw up. No, is the short answer.

I stood in line once thinking about something I'd huffed about, and loved it, but I wouldn't do it in line. Time bore down on nine months and nothing happened.
