Slip Into the Vanguard of Theme Parks With a Fake Poll
If you’ve ever been to a theme park, you know how it sucks to queue for two hours to ride something that lasts two minutes. However, with a clipboard and the right attitude, you can push your way ahead without even blinking an eye.
This post is part of our Evil Week series on Lifehacker where we take a look at the dark side of goal achievement. Sometimes evil is justified, and sometimes knowing evil means knowing how to defeat it. I want more? Visit our wicked week tags page .
In this NSFW video from YouTube’s The Hacks of Life, Mike Capes – whose advice we’ve shared in past evil weeks – showcases some dastardly theme park tips that any Disney villain would be proud of. The worst part of theme parks is the line, so Capes showcases classic social engineering that you can use to quickly come to the fore. All you need is a pen and a notepad with a piece of paper that looks like some sort of legitimate look. As you walk past people, stop from time to time to ask someone a question like, “How long are you waiting in line?” or “Are you happy with your experience today?” If you have a lace or a button, it will really help seal the deal. Plus, there are so many employees in theme parks that vehicle drivers will probably think you work too. You will be ahead and ready to ride in no time. It should be noted, however, that while you are not actually hurting anyone, there is a good chance that you will be kicked out if caught doing it (you might be forbidden to ever return). You’ve been warned, so try this tip at your own risk.
