Queue Jumpers

RosieMarie_91

Anyone have a good comeback for people that jump queues, it makes my blood boil but, i can never think of anything to say to them. Any tips/suggestions for if this happens again.

Thanks

Say politely "I'm sorry is the queue in your way ?"

FAR QUEUE, FAR QUEUE!

Running clothesline does the trick, took out an OAP this morning. :cool:

I usually say something along the lines of 'I'd like to skip the queue that's in operation here too but unfortunately my manners won't allow me'

The response is generally the exact kind of gormless look you'd expect from such cretins.

It depends how busy i am. Somedays it's "no problem old lady, off you go" other times it's "who the fúck does she think she is!!!!"

Hormones.

I've started wearing jumpers in queues now. Too warm for a jacket, but not warm enough to just go with the shirt. :cool:

Life's rats.

I was in a post office and a woman jumped the queue in front of me. I told her to get back in line and she started screaming the place down, threatening me etc. I really wanted to kick the **** out of her but couldn't. I knew that if I beat her face in I probably wouldn't get served when I got to the hatch.

I had to run down the street after her as she got out ahead of me but when I caught up to her I dished out an unmerciful beating. I stamped her head off the ground until she started this weird gurgling thing; there was all this blackish blood coming out of her - it was like yer man out of bloodsport. Jean-Claud Van-Damme was nearby being held back by an Asian, screaming out 'noooooooooooooooooooooo.' I took some silly bandana she was wearing off and mocked Van Damme. I'd pay for it later though.

I've only had it happen once at the bus, when one of our buses didn't show up and there was an almighty queue by the time the next one came. Some fellow swanned up to the top of it and stood there trying to get on first. He was blocked off by whomever WAS first in the queue, and then by my ex as we were next. Another passenger said 'oi mate, see that? That's a queue, get to the back of it' I then helpfully pointed out that the rest of us had been there for over half an hour so he should clear off
The 'gormless look' on him :rolleyes:

I thought this was about a type of jumper you wear when going to queue for something.

No. You didn't.

I hate when you're queuing outside a venue before a gig and a group arrive an hour beforehand and for some reason can't believe that there is a queue.
Then they walk up to the front of it, stand looking gormless, and ask someone "Is this the queue?". No, not at all, we're just standing here for the craic.... :rolleyes:

Also hate queue jumpers. Never have the courage to say something to them though. Best thing I ever saw was a security guard at a concert refusing to give a pit-band to a girl who he caught skipping.

In fairness if she was skipping she was probably too young to be in the pit.

I can't even think what she was doing at a gig at that age? What did you go see, Justin Bieber?

Yes, because Justin Bieber is the only sort of gig that'd have a pit. :rolleyes:

Oi cunt.

And stab your finger at them.

I believe that the poster is trying to use the term "skipping" to mean hopping / jumping lightly rather than your original context of "skipping" which was clearly intended to refer to the act of jumping a queue. I believe he or she is doing this deliberately in order that they might extrapolate a humorous juxtaposition.
He or she is deliberately misinterpreting a part of your post to suggest that a girl who skips (ie hops / jumps) might be too young to enter a moshpit.

I could be wrong. But that is my interpretation of the situation we are currently presented with.

Mmmmmm ?

Put a tire around their neck, fill it with petrol and then set it alight.

That'll teach them to skip queues

Had left a nightclub one night early enough as I was being harrased the entire night by some drunk dickwads.
Walked across to abrakebabra, which was jampacked - it was college christmas day, everybody was disgustingly drunk.
Q-d in abra for what felt like forever. The guys from the nightclub came in and barged right in front of me. The guy behind me told them to get to the back of the que but they scoffed at him.

Got closer to the top, when this ugly blonde bitch pushed right in in front of me. I said to her "Im sorry, the bottom of the que is further down." She turns to me and says "These are actually my friends, they were holding my place for me". - No, they werent. They skipped the que too. She ignored me and turned her back to me. Antagonised, I couldn't just drop it. I tapped her on the shoulder and said "You have some cheek too. Isn't it only pretty girls who get to skip the que?"

The guy behind me BURST out laughing and she looked me up and down before I pushed her out of the que.

Interesting. I failed to spot said humorous juxtaposition, but now that I see it, I realise that it is hilarious and that I am simply not cultured enough to understand such comedic genius.

An interesting thesis and, while largely correct, misses completely the secondary theme, namely that languagenerd is the kind of gal that would be going to a Justin Bieber concert.

Does this count as a bannable personal attack? :P
