The appeal of Disney parks

Jeff's avatar

If it ended at, "I think Disney rides are lame," I would've been like, "OK, your opinion."

The reasons I'm enjoying these page views in one of the slowest weeks of the year is that the actual story went, "Disney looks lame, so why should I go, I'm going, it's lame like I knew it would be, but I went anyway and I'll show you."

That amuses me.

GoBucks you seem intent on the discussion ending but you could just as easily walk away.

Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened.

That's not quite it.

Disney looked lame but wife and kids wanted to go.

Go to Disney turns out it is pretty lame for anyone beyond nursery school, ran out of stuff to do half way through the trip so we rinsed and repeated the mediocre stuff we did already.

Come back to report it was pretty much lame.

Cant even fathom why people would want to have weddings, reunions, anniversaries, etc there unless they were just mouse ear wearing simpletons.

Absolutely. But as folks here seem to be interested in what bill is posting (I am not actually -- seems to me his responses are predictable and very played out at this point), I am somewhat fascinated by the responses of other folks in this thread.

How is it stereotyping?

It'd be the same as going into an "American Style Diner" of some sort and ordering a Gator Burger. Just because it's an animal that lives somewhere in that country, it MUST be common to the point where it's being sold at Disney World.

Fair. So, stereotyping based on nationality is less bad because it's called something different? Or is avoiding the point cancel it out?

Was your point really that he has something against Australians because he thought what they were cooking smelled bad?

Stereotyping doesn't necessarily have to be "negative"; assuming every Asian person is good at math isn't necessarily "harmful", but it's still a generalization made for a cheap laugh. And judging by the way his sentence read:

Walking past Austrailia's little kiosk at the food and wine thing, I almost got sick, whatever they were cooking smelled like crap (kangaroo?)

I just felt it had little to do about anything, and just another cheap shot. Not unlike the rest of his posts, it just seemed directionless and arrogant.

Nice picture link to wikipedia by the way.

Thank the Phoenicians for that!

"...but when they are that young you have to drag strollers..."

That was one odd thing I found about the MK--our 2-wide stroller wouldn't fit through the exits! ~1 am with 2 sleeping kids in it. Asked an employee if there was a wider exit, was told no. That stroller has been in a ton of parks, but only Disney couldn't accomodate it. (We lifted it out, don't remember having to lift it in, however.)

I smelled gamey meat. Kangaroo is a game meat eaten in Australia, it's no different than saying China smelled like MSG and fry oil, or Italy smelled like garlic. You're just being an oversensitive dope.

And what is the deal with airline food?

I was just trying to say that your over generalizations are annoying and typically inaccurate. Like the fact that MSG is biggest in Japan, and is present in American food as well.

I fail to see on how having integrity in what words represent me makes me oversensitive.

Hold on a second. There's a leopard, feeding on an impala, out on my deck.

NOPE! It's just Chuck Testa with another realistic mount.

Hi josh. I'm stuck in traffic.

I hate traffic. What else is going on?

Well at least you are not talking on your phone while driving. That would be dangerous. Posting here is ok though.

I got off work an hour late and I'm hungry.

You could get McDonald's for dinner. I heard they have the Best Burger Ever.*
