    Actually, I wear a sandwich board with that statement ala Die Hard with a Vengeance. It makes for more efficient douchebaggery. :slight_smile:

    As someone who is big about "respect". I always take someone running my green light, cutting me in line, or anything of the sort as doing exactly what you said. They may as well say "f**k you" to my face.

    Not cool.

    Line cutting is juvenile and plain poor behavior.

    Thir system for Abraxas and Coffee Abraxas Rocked, Start a bottle share at 5am tickets later that morning, drafts all afternoon, and no line at the end of the day to pay for your beer.

    This is why we need laws and rules - to force people who wouldn't otherwise be considerate, respectful and use common sense. While I don't get bent out of shape when it happens in front of me, I DON'T LIKE IT! I don't think I could ever cut.

    Line cutters need to be issued cease and desist letters from those that were there first. That's how the beer world works.

    I have stood at different places in many lines with many people including my brothers, and wife. Amazingly we all saw each other again when we were all through. Sorry to sound like a dick, but this isn't really beer related. Thread needs deleted. Like @jesskidden said, this is kindergarten shit.

    The more I read through this thread the sadder I am for society. General common sense and human decency is slowly being replaced with entitlement

    Heres my take, if it's a limited bottle release, yes, not a good idea, someone will kill you. If they have plenty, tell them to suck it beer geek. What helps? Sharing a bottle while your in line or about to cut.

    Is it okay to cut in line?

    No. Duh.

    This is usually taught and understood in elementary school.

    Kids these days.

    Your agreement with this post is in direct conflict with your post above it. The people that he referenced that aren't using common sense or displaying decency are the line cutters.

    Now, Im quoting my own words. I'm the dude playin' the dude, disguised as another dude!

    First of all, its beer, people are drinking, they loose common sense and they tend to crash more when they drive. SECOND OF ALL, the gentleman already knows about entitlement and hows it taking over the world to ruin it, he just adding that now, its come to beer releases. I was merely just explaining what helps and what I sometimes do, like an AA meeting.

    Don't be an asshole; please contain the grown man "fan-boy" crazy enthusiasm; have your ride in order; pin a note with your info to your back so that we can identify you when your face down...really the same rules for any rock or metal festival apply.

    Yes, it's bad form but your friend put you in a weird situation. Next time just say hi and shoot the shit and then get in line.

    Don't cut...period, if you want to hang with friends have them come to back with you, if their willing. Can't even believe some of trying to justify this!

    Rule 1 of life - treat others as you'd like to be treated. Do you want people cutting in front of you?

    Corollary to Rule 1 - don't be an a-hole.
