Waiting for that one guy to pick a style from his phone gallery

In my experience, you gotta have a go-to move for this. I usually start scrolling through my own phone, like I'm checking a text or an email. Another thing is to just focus on your own stuff, maybe clean your glasses or fix your hair in a mirror. If it drags on, a light comment like "lots of options, huh?" can nudge them along. Your mileage may vary, but having a few distractions ready saves your sanity.

The guy at the deli knows my order by my comic book t-shirts

Totally get that familiar routine feeling, my coffee guy recognizes my usual order the second I walk in now. It makes the whole interaction feel less rushed and more personal somehow. Ever think about changing your order just to see what happens?

Organizing my craft supplies closet inspired my typography choices for a client project.

Wow, in my experience, tidying up can really spark creativity. I remember once when I organized my bookshelf, it gave me ideas for a collage. Your friend's garage mural must be inspired by all those neat rows and colors. It's wild how ordinary things can turn into art like that. Can't wait to see what comes out of it, if you get to share.
