At Disney you put your park pass in a Fast Pass machine at the ride you would like to ride (there are machines at every major ride). The machine will spit out a "Fast Pass" (paper slip) telling you what time to return to redeem your ride (it's usually 2 hours from the time you received your pass) and there is a window of 30 or 60 minutes where you can use the pass before it expires. You can only have one Fast Pass at a time so once you redeem a Fast Pass you cannot change your mind and get another pass until the first expires. In reality you can only do this about 4 times a day because of the time constraints.
Disney has it right! That works much better than some pricy "asshole badge" for those narcissistic wealthy assholes (I'll betcha they are the same wealthy people who complain about taxes, and you can blame asshole-in-chief Grover Norquist for that).
Spend extra money on an "asshole badge"! Oh yeah! But then these pablum pukers have the ignorant GALL to kvetch about being over-taxed!
Makes sense...if you're ignorant, stupid, or a Rapethuglican...but I repeat myself.
But I guarantee you that we, the sane folks here who are truly loony for speaking our minds here and actually WORK for a living, could buy some useful things like GROCERIES or pay the UTILITY BILLS with that money the assholes throw away on their "asshole badges"! Now that's real "cents" you can take to the bank!
I'll step off my soapbox now. ;-)
