    Sorry to bother you but it is “missing the cue” not que or queue. Just fyi for the future.

      But what if I cut in front of the line because I missed the queue?

        I’ve done that before. Massively embarrassing.

      Exactly! Cue starts with c like call or clue, which are sort of what it means.

      Queue is a bunch of letters standing in line for no reason (since Q alone would sound the same)

      Que is pronounced like the beginning of queso

      OPs account age is 1 day, this single post and zero comments. Most likely a copy and paste bot, which is hilarious because what are they farming for here? There’s no karma!

      What if you didn’t realize there was a line and just went to the front?

        Then the person at the front of the queue must clear their throat until you realise your mistake and return to the back of the queue.

      The problem is society massively rewards lying within limits. Kind of like when you make a resume that explains your one week spring break drunken binge as a “Cultural Exchange Opportunity”.

      “Never lie!!!”

      Knock knock “Are there any Mexicans in this house?”

      “YES SIR, they’re hiding in my basement to escape your search.”

      Lying to save five bucks at a corporate chain is fine man. Lying to a local business is kind of shitty. Maybe teach kids when lying is acceptable, instead of arbitrarily deciding all lying is bad.

        The headline is about missing a “cue” as in failing to respond correctly, but it’s misspelled “que” - which happens to be Spanish for “what”, which was the basis for my joke using Spanish question marks.

          Yes, I got that. I was just primed to make some sort of joke of my own, but didn’t have such a good one. I loved your Spanish question marks :-D

    A friend of mine’s kid snitched on him when he was in the right. Something similar where 5 and under were free or discounted, and he said to the ticket person she’s 5, and she just decided to play a kid game with him. “NOOO DADDDY, I’M 6!” but she actually was 5. He said, no, you’re not sweetheart you’re 5, and the lady gives him a wink and goes “It’s ok, she can be 5 today.” He was trying to tell her she actually was 5 and he wasn’t trying to cheat them, and she’s like “don’t worry about it” in a tone that said she was not believing him.

      That kid has a future. They understood the premise, found a creative way to use it, then successfully embarrassed their dad. That’s S-Tier trolling.
