I used money to skip a line. I am now an elitest

I went to the movies and there was a big line, so I made the order on my phone, paid the $1.50 booking fee and then went into the pre-book line (nobody there) and was called next, skipping 8 or so people waiting.

I'm now an elitest.

Or you have that money to burn rather than have a little ‘me’ time and rest in a queue.

Dangerous to be in queues these days

Movie session had begun so I didn't want to waste any time.

[–] OratiaGlake (1244) 3 years ago

Stressful! I hate that situation.

What morons don't buy tickets in advance?

You weren't being an elitest. You were not being a moron.

[–] sslssg (30073) 3 years ago

So, are you proud of this? Are you bragging that you spent that extra dollar?

Also why does that make you an elitest?

[–] [deleted] 3 years ago

The elite use money to push in front of people, literally and figuratively.

[–] sslssg (30073) 3 years ago

But anyone could have skipped the line for $1.50. That doesn't make you elitist.

No one says anything about being an elitist. It's all about being the elitest.

I was there, I witnessed the entire thing

He spat in the general direction of all of us peasants and announced haughtily, 'Let them eat cake!'

[–] sslssg (30073) 3 years ago

That may be. But if it is a perk that is available to us peasants as well as him, it doesn't make him elite.

This guy controls 99% of the stock in Astonishing Tales Global Inc.

Of course he's an elitist😉

I was there too, a most disgraceful performance!

😒

Pah! The elite don’t pay darling.

[–] ShogunofYonkers (73483) 3 years ago

True
They make the rest of us pay😤

[–] actionkamen (23176) 3 years ago

While getting paid.

[–] sslssg (30073) 3 years ago

Exactly.

[–] MovieManCin2 (26342) 3 years ago

You cad! You bounder!

😒

[–] [deleted] 3 years ago

Good on ya, bro. I do the same thing whenever I can.

[–] chilone (17393) 3 years ago

You white privilege you!

Did you accidentally knock down a poor, Cockney flower girl, tumbling all the violets out of her basket and ruining her night's wages, then run off without paying? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0p8xnwmVR7E
