I always thought that was a NY thing- "Waiting on line", "Staying on line", etc. instead of "in line". I know of one song from the 80s, from a NY band that uses that line, and Connie said it in Godfather II (not NY, though), so...
In the Philippines they say fall in line. Kek
Definitely a regional phrase. Down south we stand in line. Up north they stand on line.
I was born and raised in NW Indiana and I NEVER heard stand on line. Maybe it is an East Coast thing...rather than a Northern thing...
Raised on the northeast coast and lived there 21 years, never heard of "stay on line" in my life to mean the same as "stay in line"
Maybe we just didn't run in the right circles...🤣
From where I live, on the east coast, anything above me on the map is north ;-). But yes, I meant east coast north of the Mason Dixon line...
