At the psychiatrist's office, even the tissue boxes are drug company ads. Weeping, the hapless patient reaches for relief, only to be told: LIFE IS WAITING.
Could "Leave the Wait Behind" be one of the worst slogans I've heard in a while? Granted, it's a medical ad campaign and they're not known for wowing the advertising world but the whole point is that life is waiting, not you - you're not waiting for life to come and swoop in and save you from those uncomfortable orange chairs. So the whole point is sort of getting off your depressed butt, hopping on that Wait Train away from Miseryville and chugging off towards Life! Beautiful Life!
Also "Leave the Wait Behind" sounds kind of Jenny Craig-ish.

Over-thinking. It's my specialty.
