Riding on roller coasters is easy if you go in the line for single riders. You cut the whole line and only wait until a free seat is open on one of the coasters. In fact you can do it with friends as long as you don't mind riding together. You pwn the lines.

+1 for lift lines.

For those of you that have dogs who never let go of there tennis balls, sticks, frisbees, and whatnot when your playing catch..

Bring a 2nd ball with you, or use a stick or big rock.. Wave it in there face and they'll just release the ball from there mouth you want to throw and now want to catch what's in your hand, then just switch back and throw your first ball.

For even more simpler advice, if you suck at sex and are worried about lasting long.. When you finally get laid, bang out 5 times.. she'll be very satisfied with at least one (usually 2 and 5) and you won't feel like a pussy for lastin 30 seconds anymore.

When you need to fill in those random words that generate(forget the name) when signing up for something, you can always skip the space.

one thing that helped me deal with long drives while tired was chewing sunflower seeds, for some reason constantly having food in my mouth made me feel more alert and i also had to think about the chewing of the seeds

not sure if this is recommended or legit in anyway

the only problem is when you eat so many that the salt/flavor/sodium starts to burn holes in your gums

I live in Orlando, all major theme parks here have a single riders line that lets you skip 95% of the lol @ those people line

I have never seen a park that you can not. You skip 1h+ at every park in Orlando, plus it works at Busch Gardens in VA. Typically expect about 4-8 people waiting in front of you and waiting about 3 cars. My wife doesn't ride roller coasters and typical wait time is 15 minutes from entering to exiting when the rides are at 90+min wait time.

This. Not sure the exact count but it's way more than 12. Basically a handful. I've never eaten them specifically on a long drive though but it sounds like a good idea.

The only problem is spitting, usually I just use a cup, if you try to go out the window you'll end up with a lot blown back in the car.

You're talking about captchas.

When you encounter a captcha in which one of the two words (or phrases) is impossible to decipher, just make sure you put in the correct number of characters for that word (it doesn't matter which characters you put). It turns out, only one out of the two words is used to determine the outcome of the test. Even if you get one word wrong, there's still a decent chance you pass the test.

Jettisoning 25 sunflower shells from your mouth out the window at 70mph is an art form. It's definitely not for the timid.

3 your usually too tired out from 2 lasting so long..so you want to spice it up and try a new position and bang out fast and go to bed..I usually go with girl on stomach, legs inbetween mine, and I can do work on her while she just puts her head in a pillow and dreams about whoever the hell she wants.

For me, 4 is usually morning wake up.. short, satisfying, and great but not for her.. Thats why you gota save it with a 5.

Those captchas where you only need to type in one word are used to improve document scanning techniques, or at least scan some text their software choked on. They'll use one 'normal' captcha, and one will be a word from some old text that the software couldn't decipher. The assumption is that since you'll try to answer both correctly and got the one they know right, they can use your answer for the other to train the software/decipher the word. That also explains why one of the two might seem easier to you in the first place.

I figured it out while hunting Pearl Jam seats. I skipped the space. It still worked.
I've also had an idea the other thing worked too, because I've definitely put in a wrong word more than a few times and it still worked.
