You Don't Even Know, Dude

Okay, remember in Superman/Batman: Apocalypse (originally in the comics as the Superman/Batman: Supergirl storyline) when Superman and Supergirl return from Apokolips and fly to the Kents’ farm to… rest, I guess, and it turns out Darkseid is in the Kents’ house and surprises Superman and Supergirl?
See, we have no idea how long he was waiting for them. He presumably Boom Tubed over there, which is basically instant. He could have been there for hours, flipping through magazines and watching TV or something. Eating the food in the fridge, trying on the Kents’ clothes, going through the medicine cabinet, hiding in the bathroom when the Kents come back because Martha forgot her keys… y’know, hilarious.
Then I see this page. Apparently Darkseid has a history of waiting in living rooms. Who knew?
