How To Cut In Line and Not Get Caught

ewenc writes "A psychology study of hundreds of people waiting for front-row access to U2 concerts points to the best ways to cut in line and not get caught.

    You may get caught for the murders, but no one will ever know you cut in line.

    Depends. Do you murder with a knife?
