I go with #2, sneak in a quick swig of beer. Now that I think about it, this could be the reason why my gameplay suffers as the evening proceeds  :D

I prefer to

1. Break my jump button while mashing it T&F style (anyone remember this?! Mark? Jeff? Robert? lol)
2. Analyze my previous board to see what I can do better/prepare for the next board
3. Calculate pace, realize it is too low, complain about how much I suck, get pissed, over press on the next board and therefore die stupidly
4. Sing (too loudly) or eat (too much)
5. Wish that I had the Staalboard for Mac! Instead, imitate Allen myself.

I assume we're talking the "falling monkey" moment?

1. Take a sip of green tea/coffee/Rip It energy
2. Look at the chat
3. Frantically claw at my smartphone in a futile attempt to execute the 30 swipes and taps necessary to set up the next thing I want to listen to in my headphones, almost get there, and then plan to finish when I've cleared the barrel screen
4. Reposition my butt and/or legs because something will probably be falling asleep due to the awful ergonomics of my seating arrangement
5. Fantasize about peeing and wish that there was time
