Fuck that guy in the lift line

Thats right, I said it. Fuck that guy who keeps on inching up and knocking around my board when the line is clearly not moving. Fuck that guy in the singles line who thinks he can move past you because he has identified another single that he can team up with to steal your spot when it is inevitably yours. Fuck that guy who stands at the entrance of the line waiting for his buddy who is 5 minutes behind because he cannot ski. Fuck that guy who thinks the lift line is the smoking deck at the local pub. Fuck that guy who is too busy messing with his speakers, clothes, or cell phone to make his pass available to the ticket checker when appropriate.

The skiing is always worth that douche bag, but it is not that hard. The lift line works like all other lines in the world.

On the bright side, lines in Utah are relatively short.

you seem like a really anal person. I could write a wall of text about people who do stupid little things when they're driving too, but it's just such an insignificant part of my day. be happy you're skiing.

also, if you're that irritated you could try not being a little bitch and actually tell them to fuck off instead of complaining on newschoolers. newschoolers can't help your problem. sorry.

legitimately the funniest thing i have ever seen in my life, was when this guy with new park skis at the front of the line flipped his shit when some poor old woman nudged one of his skis with hers. he started thrashing around and like stomping on her skis and yelling. your skis are going to get beat up anyway man, chill the fuck out!

Fuck working at the beginner chairs, when all the foreigners decide to show up... Never had a worse time working at a resort. I want to help them have a fun day, but they always have an attitude when you don't bend the rules for them. Eff. That.

fuck the "bro" who asks if he can smoke on the lift, and does even after you tell him no, and think its chill because he offers for you to "blaze" with him. Inconsiderate fucks indeed.

fuckin this.

no man, your side just went, its my sides turn, THEN its your turn.
i think the only people that dont understand must be only child's.

its the same kind of people that cant figure out how a four way stop works.

the amount of times ive just blatently ran into someone who thought it was their turn is approaching the billions.

I believe the proper etiquette is to bring a cup for your placeholder.

Fuck the guy who smokes a cig on the way up the gondola. It's inconsiderate and rude.

I think you may have misunderstood.

Thread related protip: If you expect the worst to happen while you're in a lift line then nothing should be a surprise and you won't get so angry.

I have to agree, the person behind me in the lines that keeps moving forward and hitting my skis... Very annoying. Also, lifties only check my pass when the lift starts at the bottom of the hill. so once you're half way up, they don't check any more. They also have to scan them so it's even more annoying. have to show it and wait for them to get the right angle and then scan it..

Got hit while standing in the lift line over christmas break. I guess the kid french fried when he was supposed to pizza but, he took my ass out real quick. Luckily I didn't get hurt but I still wasn't a happy camper at least the kid and his dad apologized like 5 times so I just blew it off.

this irritates me beyond belief. I like being in the mountains because of the cold fresh air, and breathing in secondhand cig smoke fills me with rage

I would show up an hour early instead and skin up. Then you get a workout AND first tracks. The looks you get from people in line when you get down covered in snow are the best.

Hahaha. Everyone needs to just chill the fuck out about liftlines...

This is what you have to deal with at Squaw, and folks revel in it... It's like a right of passage to wait out that line at the bottom of kt22.

This was a huge powday 2 seasons back at Squaw. Fucking HARROWING wait to get on the lift... and you don't even care, because it's basically like heli-skiing at this point.



Just relax, make friends, pack a 18 rack of hamm's in your backpack and sell them to folks... or hand out redbulls for gnarpoints... Smoke weed, pass around the bud like you're at a concert, etc.

Just enjoy the fact that you're getting on a fucking uphill heading chairlift and you don't have to earn your turns because you paid for a season pass during that season.

Wow...

But those lines are ridiculous, fuck waiting there, why not just walk up/rent some touring skis. That wait would be hours.
