Sat down next to a man on RnRC, the lights counted down and we take off.
The man goes "S#!T !!!!!" (dirty word)
When the ride stops, I turn to him and ask,"Was that your first time?"

We were waiting to be seated at San Angel Inn in Epcot and this lady comes running in to see if they have availability and then she says "Will we be able to see the fireworks from here?":confused3

My macho, unemotional DH shrieked like a lady during takeoff the first time he rode RnR- and we won't let him forget it. :rotfl:

Not at Disney, but related...
I showed a freind at work my picture I took with Captain Jack in September and she says..OMG.. is that Johnny Depp? I looked at her and said with the straightest face possible.. DO you seriously think I'd be standing there that calmly if it WAS? She then giggles and says.. Then it must be a wax figure or something.. I siad.. NO..he's real.. its just not Johnny..(boy did I wish it was though!)

Last week while having lunch at DHS's ABC Commissary, I overheard a lady trying to tell someone on her cell phone where she was so they could connect. She kept telling the person on the other end of the telephone, "We are at the ABC Commissionary"!

This July while in line for POTC one kid was spraying another with his water fan gadget that is sold all over the parks in summer. The kid getting sprayed complained to his Dad who responded if you have to spray someone spray me. It felt like 100 degrees and 100% humidity that day.

That's so funny! My dh, who HATES rides, decided to go on RnR for some reason. He was so mad at me when we got off the ride, claiming I tricked him into it (hello, the word ROLLERCOASTER is in the name!)

This past trip my parents decided they wanted to ride Expedition Everest with DH and me. Needless to say it turned out to be a bad decision. As we were hurtling backwards, I heard my Dad yelling at the top of his lungs: "WHY did I go on this ride!! I'M OOOOOOOOLLD!!!"
That was it for coasters for the rest of the trip! :laughing:

I was at the Pirate and Princess Party last night. When we were on It's a Small World, there was a little girl seated behind us. As our boat crusied through each "world", the little girl chattered away and was really excited.
When we entered the room with the giraffes and passed under the monkeys with their hands joined to form a long link, I heard the little girl (only about 4 or 5) say, in a voice filled with wonder and awe, "Oh, mama, look at the primates!" (Sounded like the kid knew her monkeys! :thumbsup2 )

Okay, so this one came from my own mouth, and when told to my friends provided a great source of amusement to them.
I was on POTC with my parents during marathon weekend, and since I've been so many times I know the ride like the back of my hand. Anyway, as we approached the small drop, I leaned over to my mom and meaning to be sarcastic said "Wee!" However, at that exact moment we hit the drop and caught me by surprise so it came out more like:
"WHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!"
very loudly and in almost dead silence around me. I was slightly embarassed.

Ok... this may or may not make anyone laugh, but it certainly cracked me up. September 2007, first ever trip to WDW. DH and I ride IASW. Well, for a little background, DH loves Family Guy and they did a spoof on WDW. SO.. we get one the ride, and soon as we start going into the tunnel, DH says.. OMG..HONEY... this is THAT ride.. that ride on FAMILY Guy.. I laughed and said..um.. yeah.. this is the one.. he laughs through the whole ride and when we get to the Hawaii scene and there are the dolls with ceremonial maks on he says.. LOOK, there he is..THERE'S STEWIE... he just has a mask on! Oh man I never thought I'd see him laugh so much and myself as well. We had the whole boat laughing. I sincerely think IASW was his favorite ride!

We were on my DD's first trip to WDW when she was 6. While riding IASW, she turns to me about 2/3 of the way through and with all seriousness she yells, "This is a nightmare!"
Everyone on our boat was laughing so hard when we pulled up to the unloading area that we could barely get out of the boat :lmao:

Ok, funny things I have encountered:
1. There was one of those guys in front of me at the Pirate's of the Carribean ride line who obviously thought he knew everything and he was explaining to his family how this ride was built recently because of the movie...
2. In the Haunted Mansion ride, I was fortuneate enough to get placed in a buggy with a frat house vacation or something but one of them, in a transition area where not much is going on in terms of scary yells "Oh my god, they killed Kenny! You *******s!" c:rotfl: It's esp. funny b/c I'm a big South Park fan.
3. On the way home on my 5 hour flight back to Oregon :sad2: , as we were taking off, some guys say "woooo" and raise their hands as if they were on a ride :laughing:

I forgot a few, sorry:
4. I'm not a smoker, but I know some of them and even they find this funny. I was walking with my twin SILs, 5 (not too weird how young she is, don't worry my husband is 23) in the World Showcase headed back to the Future World. We had just passed the smoking area btwn Canada and FW when we decided to take a bathroom break, still by the smoking area. As we come out of the bathroom, Emmy, one of the girls, walks over to some guy smoking and asks "why are you trying to kill yourself at the happiest place on earth??? are you freaking crazy???" And she was asking him like she was his mom or something, I just thought it was the funniest thing ever but even so, I apologized way more than I should have and told her to do so also because it is extremely rude. My DH's family is pretty conservative too so I don't know where here crazy-liberal thinking came from. Maybe me??? but shhh... don't tell anyone. lol.
5. Um ok, so here's another one from Emmy. She's one outspoken 5 year old BTW, she's very smart and the smart one's tend to be very outspoken...
Ok, so you know how many parent's feel as if it's totally normal and they're doing nothing wrong when they use their stroller's as a way to push through crowds? Well Emmy and Alyssa, even at the age of 5, are very athletic and aren't sissies, they can hold their own and be trooper's and walk around all day. We were walking down Main Street (which is stoller pushing central) and some lady bumps into the back of Alyssa's legs and Emmy turns around sharply gives the worst look a cute 5 year old blonde girl can to this woman and says "next time, why don't you stick that stroller where the sun doesn't shine? and are you really using an EMPTY stroller right now? seriously?" :lmao: I had no clue who has been teaching these girls to speak so openly but I am glad they did b/c a)you can't get mad at a 5 year old b)she's being the rudeness police and that's funny!!! Her mom had to give her a lecture on appropriate outspokeness. She told her that although she was very confident, she's going to get in trouble if she doesn't think before she speaks. And mind you, these are only 2 of the hundreds of crazy things she has said, and the only two that were rude.
I later found out it was her 16 year oold brother :rotfl2:
6. We were at the Poly Resort waiting for transportation to EPCOT, I heard this boy one time, he was maybe 8/9, and he really wanted to go to Disneyland. Not that it's weird but he was saying how he could just take the resort bus from our hotel with his dad, it's no problem and he could just meet his sister and mom at MK later. He was like it would be really cool if they could time it right and be on both of the Haunted Mansions at the same time.
Silly kids, lol.

Several weeks ago, we were talking about who we would see and the things we would do on our up-coming trip. So, we will see the Dapper Dans, Jim who plays the piano at Coca Corner, etc. My DD said "We will see Roger, Bob, and Joe." (Not sure if these names are correct)
Roger, Bob, and Joe??
Roger, Bob and Joe??
My DH and I are looking at each other trying to remember Roger Bob and Joe.
So, we asked DD who they were. In a matter of fact tone of voice, she told us that they were
.
.
.
the bus drivers.
As a follow up, we were on one of the busses a few weeks later, and she got very happy. I asked her why. It was because Roger was our driver. I made sure I told him this little story. He of course didn't remember us, but my DD sure remembered him.

I have to say I agree. Your SIL sounds like a very smart little girl, but I think her comments are very out of place and rude. To tell someone to shove something where the sun doesn't shine is not funny.

I agree. Both comments those girls made were extremely rude. I would have been embarrassed as a parent!! If my kids ever spoke that way to someone they would have been disciplined, not laughed at.

I agree, she was horribly rude. Even if it were wrong to push an empty stroller through the park (and it's not... hello... I'm going to leave my stroller behind just because some random nasty child thinks I should? :confused3 ), her attitude and language were completely uncalled for.

I have to admit that I'm guilty of telling my kids to "SMILE DARN IT!" while we were at Disneyland.
We were there with extended family and the day had totally started off all wrong. The kids wanted to just go and explore the park since it was our first trip to DL.
Well, everyone else wanted to stop and take pictures in front of the castle - right after park opening so there were 50 million other people trying to do the same.
So we stood and stood waiting our turn. Of course, when we finally see an opening to take our group shot it proceeds to take us about 5-10 minutes to get everyone lined up properly etc. By this time, the kids have had it! They're ready to go and could care less about pictures.
My DS who hates to have pictures made anyway was more sullen than usual. He stood there and frowned. I look over at my DD who is a mirror image of her brother. I couldn't blame them but I wanted to get going!!
So, I look at them and say louder than I intended, "Just smile for the dang pictures so we can get out of here. SMILE DARN IT!!!!"
I turn around and there's this woman waiting on us to move so her family can take pictures. She says, "Wow...isn't this supposed to be the happiest place on earth?"
I was mortified with embarrassment!!!

ITA...funny thing is that many DIS'ers are posting on CB how they applaud the actions of a mom who's son smarted off to his teacher. The mom made the kid stand outside the school with a sign and ended up on the news. However somehow it is "cute" if done to a complete stranger

At least my DD isn't the only one who calls lettuce salad. Maybe she has a little British in her! :confused3
Actually, in britain it is 100% normal to call the lettuce and tomato on a burger, salad. That's what we call it. Apart from the portion size and that there is extra things in a 'salad'. What is the difference between a 'salad' and the lettuce and tomato? (This is a genuine question, I don't want to order a salad on my last trip and get something completly different than what I expect!:rotfl: )

(This is a genuine question, I don't want to order a salad on my last trip and get something completly different than what I expect!:rotfl: )
P.s I love this thread :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
I'm baffled over the salads in the US too. One time I ordered a tuna salad sandwich and was shocked to see that the "salad" is actually mashed tuna fish mixed with a mayo and a few other things... but no salad. No lettuce. Same thing for chicken and egg "salad" but then when you get a chicken cesar salad, you get a real salad with actual leaves in it.
One time I was looking at the Coral Reef menu and saw lobster salad. A salad with bits of lobster in it right ? No, other DISers told me it's a mayo mush thing again. :confused3

If you order a salad, you're going to get a mixture of greens, possibly with tomato, cucumber, onion, and other veggies.
If you order a salad with a type of protein in front of the word "salad" (chicken salad, tuna salad, lobster salad, egg salad) it is most likely going to be diced or shredded meat mixed with mayonnaise (the mayo mush thing). The most common exception would be chicken salad, which may be a green salad with cooked chicken on top.

This thread is cracking me up. My husband and I love listening to people say dumb things while we are waiting in lines and then once we are far enough away we laugh our heads off.
Once we were waiting for the train and two women were looking at their map and talking about what they would do that day and one said that they could skip Small World because it was a "Christian" ride, and she proceeded to say how it is about being a Christian.
Not sure where she got that one, last time I checked peace and friendship weren't just for Christians. :upsidedow

I forgot a few, sorry:
4. I'm not a smoker, but I know some of them and even they find this funny. I was walking with my twin SILs, 5 (not too weird how young she is, don't worry my husband is 23) in the World Showcase headed back to the Future World. We had just passed the smoking area btwn Canada and FW when we decided to take a bathroom break, still by the smoking area. As we come out of the bathroom, Emmy, one of the girls, walks over to some guy smoking and asks "why are you trying to kill yourself at the happiest place on earth??? are you freaking crazy???" And she was asking him like she was his mom or something, I just thought it was the funniest thing ever but even so, I apologized way more than I should have and told her to do so also because it is extremely rude. My DH's family is pretty conservative too so I don't know where here crazy-liberal thinking came from. Maybe me??? but shhh... don't tell anyone. lol.
5. Um ok, so here's another one from Emmy. She's one outspoken 5 year old BTW, she's very smart and the smart one's tend to be very outspoken...
Ok, so you know how many parent's feel as if it's totally normal and they're doing nothing wrong when they use their stroller's as a way to push through crowds? Well Emmy and Alyssa, even at the age of 5, are very athletic and aren't sissies, they can hold their own and be trooper's and walk around all day. We were walking down Main Street (which is stoller pushing central) and some lady bumps into the back of Alyssa's legs and Emmy turns around sharply gives the worst look a cute 5 year old blonde girl can to this woman and says "next time, why don't you stick that stroller where the sun doesn't shine? and are you really using an EMPTY stroller right now? seriously?" :lmao: I had no clue who has been teaching these girls to speak so openly but I am glad they did b/c a)you can't get mad at a 5 year old b)she's being the rudeness police and that's funny!!!
I later found out it was her 16 year oold brother :rotfl2:
6. We were at the Poly Resort waiting for transportation to EPCOT, I heard this boy one time, he was maybe 8/9, and he really wanted to go to Disneyland. Not that it's weird but he was saying how he could just take the resort bus from our hotel with his dad, it's no problem and he could just meet his sister and mom at MK later. He was like it would be really cool if they could time it right and be on both of the Haunted Mansions at the same time.
Silly kids, lol.
That whole scenario with the 5 y.o. DD sounds made up. I have a nearly 5 year old and a lot of her friends are 5. I have never once heard them talk so "maturely" or with that type of tone....
And, yes, you can get mad at a five year old. :mad:

I was at DHS last week with my DS. We ate lunch at Hollywood & Vine. While I was going to the buffet to fix my youngest DS's plate, I overheard a mom talking to her daughter as they walked in to the restaurant. She was trying to calm down her daughter who was crying because she was obviously exhausted. She told her daughter thaat they were there to have fun. She proceeded to tell her daughter that they were there to see...DORA! She even pointed to June from Little Einsteins to show her daughter where "Dora" was in the restaurant. The best part was when the little girl told mom that she was not Dora because she isn't supoosed to be wearing a purple dress.
The moment I heard this comment, I immediately thought of this thread.
Someone didn't do their research!

Just got back on Sunday, and here's a few:
We were going to the Magic Kingdom, and we overheard a guy ask his wife, "where are we going now? Treasure Island?" "No, the Magic Kingdom, " she replied in a very patient voice. :rotfl2:
In Epcot, my 9-year old neice was fascinated by the Japanese woman making candy. Another boy about her age came over to see what was going on, and his dad followed. After a few minutes the dad asked me what she was doing-she was in the very first stages of making an animal and it was not obvious. He tried to get his son excited about seeing a woman making candy animals but he was clearly boooored. So dad said after a few minutes, "Come on, let's go see if we can find some thrill rides." Uh, good luck in Japan! The closest ride was in Norway-hardly a "thrill ride".
We overheard a waitress tell someone at Le Cellier that she would seat them next to a window so they could watch the fireworks. :confused3 It is in a cellar, people!!
We got Dole floats, and a family of 4 in front of us drove me crazy while I waited behind them. The oldest male had a Canadian flag on his backpack, so they became "the Canadians" to us. Anyhow, they ordered floats too, and the waitress put the first one on the counter, where it sat in all its glory...then it began to slowly melt down the sides of the dish in the 85+ degree heat. The family was bemused by the scenery around them and ignored it. The second float joined the first...and it soon started running down the sides. The first one by now was forming a large puddle on the counter. I wanted to yell, "Start eating it! We're not in Canada! It's HOT here!" By the time they got all 4 the entire counter was covered in pineapple goo, while they stared around in a daze, not realizing what was going on. :rotfl:
Needless to say, they had to spend a few minutes wiping up, and when I got my floats, I immediately handed them off to my family and ordered them to start eating right away! :rolleyes1

Actually while my parents were smoking at POP they had a 6 year old lecturing them about the dangers of smoking. So I guess they're just very intelligent. :)
(And btw, I'm surprised how some of you are calling a 5 year old "nasty". I guess that just shows who you are, and not the kid.)
Anyways, these are all very funny!

I guess this is my post you're responding to. First of all I didn't call the CHILD nasty, I wrote that what she said was nasty. Big difference.
And, yes, a five year old saying things like "stick it where the sun doesn't shine" to a complete stranger is nasty.
Main Entry: nas·ty
Pronunciation: \ˈnas-tē\

Inflected Form(s): nas·ti·er; nas·ti·est
Etymology: Middle English
Date: 14th century
1 a: disgustingly filthy b: physically repugnant
2: indecent, obscene
3: mean, tawdry
4 a: extremely hazardous or harmful <a nasty undertow> b: causing severe pain or suffering <a nasty wound> <a nasty fall> c: sharply unpleasant : disagreeable <nasty weather>
5 a: difficult to understand or deal with <a nasty problem> <a nasty curveball> b: psychologically unsettling : trying <a nasty fear that she was lost>
6: lacking in courtesy or sportsmanship <a nasty trick>
As far as it showing "who I am", yes it does. I'm someone who does not think there's anything funny about insolent preschoolers.
That's a label I can live with.

I also don't think that a 6 year old should "lecture" an adult about the dangers of smoking. Its rude, not "intelligent".
On another note,
I do think most of these are hilarious..I can't wait to add to it after our April trip and again after our August trip!!!!!! :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

As we watched a character parade... the lady next to us said, "Look paw paw, it's MoJo bear." for the bear from Splash Mountain. The whole trip my kids kept saying that....they thought it was hilarious.
Also, people behind us, not knowing Chip and Dale, said,"Why do they have squirrals in the parade?"
Again...too funny.

Back on topic... this one came from my own daughter, and it's funnier in hindsight than it was at the time. We were having lunch at the Crystal Palace, and she stood there and surveyed this incredible spread, which we'd paid big bucks to enjoy, and said "None of this looks good. Can I have a peanut butter sandwich?" :headache:

I don't know if others will find them funny, but hubby and I still laugh to this day.
We were at AK about three years ago or so, and a girl of about 12 ran past us at full tilt, pointing up and yelling over her shoulder at her family "REAL MONKEYS IN THE TREE! REAL MONKEYS IN THE TREE!!" I'm assuming that they were tired of animatronics?
On that same trip, a little girl walked in to the Team Mickey Athletic Club shop at DTD, took one look around and said in biggest, thoroughly disgusted voice that a three year old could manage "They don't got nothing that I want in here."

My neice had never been in a wave pool, or to the ocean, so waves were new to her. When the first wave at Typhoon Lagoon hit her, she was unprepared so it knocked her down and she scraped her knee slightly. I didn't make a big deal of it, and she was disappointed that I did not fuss over her scrape. She wanted to leave and was outvoted. My husband, daughter and I started enjoying the waves while she watched from a "safe distance" and was clearly puzzled over the whole concept.
After a while she ventured out in the water during a calm spell, but when the waves started again she ran out of the water as fast as she could. "Why do they keep doing that??" she asked, very exasperated. I left her alone, and within an hour she was having fun in the surf, but I loved how she really didn't understand why anyone would purposely create waves.

This was during our last trip to Disneyland. I thought it was so cute.
There was a mom sitting by us on the Main St curb with her son. He looked about 4 or 5 years old. They were eating a cinnamon roll. The kid said to his mom "this is the best day ever. We get to be at Disneyland and we're havin a cinnamon roll for lunch".

We were at POFQ, walking around checking out the food court and the gift shop. There was this guy there that drew charaictures(sp?) and he calls out to me "Hey, Shrek? Want your picture done?" I look around and there's no one else there. However I am wearing a STITCH jacket. I looked at him and said "Shrek? You mean Stitch? And you work for Disney." He turned three shades of red and started stammering. Classic.

For some reason the AK/real monkey story reminded me. A couple trips ago we were walking around and spotted DeVine. People were snapping pics, taking video. . . just watching her to her thing. This couple comes up behind me and the wife takes some pics. Another couple comes up and the husband of the new couple asks "What's everyone looking at?" and the husband of the first couple, with very little enthusiasm replied, "I don't know - some woman pretending to be a bush." You could almost hear his eyes rolling, LOL.
I guess he wasn't impressed?

Thanks. I mean come on I thought it was funny and hi, again... she's only 5. She absolutely got in trouble for it being so rude what she had said, it was just commenting on how funny it was how she is too young to have her own personal filter from what her brother has apparently taught her. But you know what, if you're only 5 and have been out at Disney for hours and hours and someone ram's your bestfriend/sister in the back of the legs and doesn't apologize, you might get mad too. And when you're only 5, you don't know that a simple glare or "excuse me" is in order.
:confused3 Why is anyone getting so irritated about this, if you don't think it's funny, don't laugh. Some of the stories on here I haven't felt all that funny but I didn't rudely comment on them. Please people, be nice.

I just thought of another one from this trip!
We were in DTD by the Legos store. There was a little boy, maybe 8 or so, looking at all of the statues they have outside the shop made of Legos - the dragon, the people walking the dogs, you know the ones. This little guy, in all seriousness, looks at his dad and says "How can they afford all of this?"
:rotfl2:
Hubby and I had to laugh at that one. I wonder how many times he's heard "Not today son, we can't afford it."
ETA - Hubby reminded me of another kid near there who said "Dad, if you buy me more Legos, I'll make you something!" I have no idea if it worked or not.

We had a comment like this from my youngest DD on our last trip. We were at Epcot for an evening EMH. We had a late lunch and were not hungry at our normal dinner time. As the night went on, we wanted a snack and stopped at Sunshine Seasons after riding Soarin'. Not much open, so we picked some chocolate croissants.
As we ate, my DD was obviously deep in thought. My wife asked her what she was thinking. Her response...
"This is much better than the green beans we have at home for dinner.":rotfl2:

While we were in MGM Studios we heard a teen telling anothere teen that they were going to see the " Ozzie Osborne Christmas lights" :rotfl: Now those would be some interesting lights!!!
We just got back on SAturday from a 12 day trip. On one of the buses a woman about 50 was telling her mom a lot of what she called disney secrets. She said one of the secrets was that only disney people could drive on the highways around disney. Her mom asked how would someone know if you were with disney or not. The woman said "Oh they know". LOL
I don't know who I felt worse for the woman or her mother.

We have a habit of sarcastically saying "happiest place on earth" whenever we see a meltdown in progress. Well we added to that after watching a father meltdown at the ticket book. Not sure exactly what the problem was with his tickets but he stomped his foot and yelled, "This is the most un-Disney-like thing that has ever happened!"

I can't find my notes to say when exactly this happened, but it was sometime between Jan 4 and Jan 20 of this year. We were on Jungle cruise. Had an excellent skipper. We thorougly enjoyed every minute. Anyway, we had just passsed the crashed plane, and she asked what would make the plane crashed. The chap across from me yelled out "Hippo's""! We all roared. :laughing: :rotfl2: We were long past the hippo's before we could get back on spiel. Our skipper loved it, and said "Yes, it's those plane crashing hippo's! Is it ok with you if I use that?" She must have told her fellow skippers, because a week later we were on JC again. Different skipper, (not as funny) and he said the plane crashing hippos were responsible for the plane crash.:rotfl:

And here's my Disney faux pas of the day
going to see Figment before he went into rehab
I must've been watching too many entertainment shows in the past week with all their Amy Winehouse talk. . . because I had to reread that three times before I realized you meant when the ride went down for rehab. Yep - for a brief moment I thought Figment was a drinker. :rotfl:

That's OK...DW told me last night that Snow White was getting rehabbed...and it took me a few moments to sink in that it was the ride. :) Of course, I still had to make a few snide comments...

Er... I hate to say it, but the bit with the Hippos is an old, old JC joke:
"Over to your right you'll see a downed plane. And that can only mean one thing: Hippos."
It sounds like the "chap" across from you thought he was being clever and rather than getting flustered the Skipper turned it around on him. :)

"That Jiminy Cricket sure is a fine lookin' grasshopper."

This just happened the other night. I was in line at the CS restaurant right next to the Rose and Crown Pub. The line was moving very, very slowly, and eventually a CM came out to tell us that their deep fryer had been broken all day and still wasn't working 100 percent, so things were taking longer to cook. When I finally made it to the front to get my food (30 minutes later, but it was SOOOOO good), I commented to the male CM ringing me up, "Well, it looks like you had a rough start, but now you're moving along." And he responded in his English accent "Oh, it's horrible, sir! The chipper was down all day, and it's just now getting going. It was bloody awful!"
It was very polite, but just struck me as very funny at the same time. I love how he called the deep fryer a "chipper."

Okay, I am loving this thread. I am only on page 30 so far, but I gotta add something funny that I said. I still crack myself up when I think about it.
Summer 2006 we took a side trip to DL from Las Vegas where my dd had a dance competition.
I had my cell phone in my pocket and I really don't know why since you really can't hear it ring. My dd who was 5 and I rode BTMR. We are speeding along and I hear my dd say "Mommy, your cell phone" and I said "I can't answer the phone, I am on a roller coaster!"
I didn't know that my phone had slipped from my pocket and down through the little hole never to be seen again. I am sad I lost my phone, but I still can't believe I thought it was ringing. :rotfl:

Finally I have my own contribution!! (This may be one of those 'you had to be there' types but I'll go for it anyway ;) )
We were on the bus after the P&PP on Feb 5th -and it has to be said the party was fantastic - we walked on all rides, got spots to watch the parade and fireworks on Main Street only minutes before they were due to start - the park was one of the emptiest I've seen it - (this is relevant, honest :) ).
Anyway.......on the bus a lady was talking on her cell phone and she was complaining how busy the party had been :confused: boy she'd hate it in the summer :rotfl:
She then continued by saying that due to the unseasonably warm weather Splash Mountain had run dry and wasn't working. She was insisting to whoever she was speaking to that it wasn't being refurbed but had actually run dry because of the heat - again I'd hate her to be there in the summer :laughing:
(Yeah, I know you probs had to be there but hey ;) )
One other - not Disney related but it was at the airport on our way home - I was in Borders and overheard a woman complaining to her companion about the lack of new books coming out because of the writers strike..........

I totally forgot this one from a few years back...
We're in the bus line at Magic Kingdom to go back to CBR. A little kid, maybe 5 or so, was none too happy to be going back to the room for a rest in the middle of the day - having to leave MK. He said, "I'm holding my breath 'til we go back in [to MK]!" His mom crosses her arms and leans back against the rail and watches him. He holds his breath with big puffy cheeks - as dramatic as possible. A fair amount of time later, he's still going. We're all watching around him. His mom, very calmly, reaches toward him and pinches his nose shut with her fingers. The kid's eyes got a little bigger and he lets out is breath all at once.
Funny enough, he didn't get mad. He just stared at his mom for a couple of seconds and started swinging on the rail like nothing happened. You go Mom!

I think the best sayings were when we got to talk to the characters.
We were at ToonTown visiting the Princesses. My 13 year old daughter was talking to Belle. Belle asked her if she liked to read. My DD said "I love to read." Belle asked her what her favorite book was. My DD told her the Twilight series. Belle said she hadn't heard of that and said, "What's that about?" My DD said, "it's a series about vampires!" Belle said, "Oh dear. I think that's a book for Beast!" :scared1: lol DD told her it was a love story and it wasn't scarey. We laughed about how Belle reacted!
Another one was when we were visiting with Alice and MadHatter. All of my girls had their sunglasses flipped up on their heads. 13DD had her mouse ears on top of her head. Alice and MadHatter whispered to each other about how the girls had to have 2 sets of eyes. "Their mother must have extra eyes as well. I have heard that moms have 2 sets of eyes," Alice said. Alice also said that 13DD must have an extra set of ears because she can't hear her parents talking to her.:rotfl2:

And then add to the above (hey! it could happen!), Florida in the winter to a person that has never been out of Alaska in their life, it'd be pretty warm!
But I doubt it.
Last year our 2 yr daughter had a private meet and greet with Cinderella thanks to the "Dream Squad". Cinderella asks her if she had just arrived from her castle in a carraige and my our daughter told her matter of factly that no that she didn't have a castle, she lived in a house, and that she flew down on a plane. It's not that funny in writing but Cinderella had to do everything she could to stop from laughing as my wife and I, the photographer and the other CM's could not stop laughing for several minutes.

Kid in audience: I know! That's a Bra!

But...do I have a funny comment to share..ummm...well, I was in Epcot once and heard someone say, I don't wanna be in Epcot, I want to go to DISNEY!
Thanks. I mean come on I thought it was funny and hi, again... she's only 5. She absolutely got in trouble for it being so rude what she had said, it was just commenting on how funny it was how she is too young to have her own personal filter from what her brother has apparently taught her. But you know what, if you're only 5 and have been out at Disney for hours and hours and someone ram's your bestfriend/sister in the back of the legs and doesn't apologize, you might get mad too. And when you're only 5, you don't know that a simple glare or "excuse me" is in order.
:confused3 Why is anyone getting so irritated about this, if you don't think it's funny, don't laugh. Some of the stories on here I haven't felt all that funny but I didn't rudely comment on them. Please people, be nice.
The kid only said what a lot of people think when the stroller rammers do a hit and run. I know they are the minority, but they are a pain-causing minority and we know they exist. They use those strollers as battering rams to make you MOVE IT! From what the poster said, the stroller rammer hit a 5 y.o. with an EMPTY stroller and didn't apologize. I'd call that bad form. So the other 5 y.o., copying language she'd heard from an older brother, gave the adult rammer an earful. That was bad form too. But weighing out the two offenses, the stroller rammer comes off MUCH worse, IMHO. She's an adult and should know better than to ram a small child and not even bother to apologize. If she'd have rammed MY child and failed to apologize, she'd have gotten an earful from me, although the words "stick it where the sun don't shine" would not have been in that earful.
Come on, the poster said the child got in trouble for being rude, so it appears the situation was handled. Lighten up.

Our family was riding the ToT and there was a little girl (about 7 years old) riding for the first time. Everyone assured her that it would be fun. Well, during the first drop, amongst all the "aaaaaaaaahhhhh"s we heard the little girl yell out "SWEET MOTHER OF PEARL!" Everyone in the "elevator" started cracking up laughing. It was just so weird to hear such an expression from such a young child. And used very appropriately, I might add.:rotfl:

Im reading some of these right now with my mom she has a good one that my nephew, Cole said at Disneyland a few years ago.
He was about7 or 8 years old, at Disneyland with Grandma & Grandpa. He kept asking for 'things'. After a while Grandpa told him he didnt have any more money. So then a little while afterwards they were walking by the popcorn cart and Grandpa wanted some. SO he got in line and bought some. Cole, thinking Grandpa didn't have any money left, said to him "I cant believe you chumped me at Disneyland!"

Daughters are wearing sweats but have the full Bibbity Bobbity hairdos with glitter and ornaments and everything. Someone else in line makes a comment on the older one's glam punk hairdo, nothing bad, just that they like her hair. Mom smiles and chats a bit. Dad glowers and chimes in with "Yes and it cost just short of 1 million dollars. When we get out of here we're going to go have their heads shellacked."

They should've just gone to the Main Street barbershop. Can't you get funky hair done there for free? Or cheap?

We were at AK about three years ago or so, and a girl of about 12 ran past us at full tilt, pointing up and yelling over her shoulder at her family "REAL MONKEYS IN THE TREE! REAL MONKEYS IN THE TREE!!" I'm assuming that they were tired of animatronics?
this reminds me of one that's still used in our house.
Also in Animal Kingdom, we were watching the cotton top monkeys for some time..up rushes this 10 year old girl "O MY GOD, I LOVE MONKEYS!!"... takes one picture and rushes off again :confused3
Ever since then if someone has a real short attention span it's "I LOVE MONKEYs"

At first I did wonder, but she was deadly serious and SO insistant that there was nothing to say that the ride was being refurbed. I wonder if she got the idea as the drop was empty of water but there was still water in the bit after drop, as you go back round to get off the ride. I wonder if she just thought the slide had run dry :confused: Other than that, nope no excuse ;) :rotfl:

this reminds me of one that's still used in our house.
Also in Animal Kingdom, we were watching the cotton top monkeys for some time..up rushes this 10 year old girl "O MY GOD, I LOVE MONKEYS!!"... takes one picture and rushes off again :confused3
Ever since then if someone has a real short attention span it's "I LOVE MONKEYs"
:rotfl2: That's a good one too! I'll have to be sure to tell my hubby. What is it about young girls and monkeys?

This isn't something I've overheard, but something my dad - who just loves to crack up (and embarrass) his kids did at the Magic Kingdom.
We had all been waiting to enter the park one morning before opening, with quite a crowd of people. Everyone was getting a little cranky and there was a little pushing up to the front.
When they finally opened the park, my dad (who somehow got towards the front of the line) ran through and did this huge run and leap of joy high into the air, ala Chevy Chase at Wally World.
We just died laughing. And so did most of the people entering the park.
The funniest part was that my dad had to sit down and catch his breath after the big leap.
We still crack up over it.

Yay, I finally have something to contribute!
We had lunch at Tusker House a couple of weeks ago. Our seating was right when they opened for lunch hours and someone forgot to replace one of food description signs from breakfast. One bowl had some form of couscous and another bowl had something else that was similar. The sign left over from breakfast, however, said that the offerings were Frosted Flakes and Raisin Bran.
As I was standing there, a woman came over, looked at the bowls and then said, "Do you know what this is?" I replied (obviously joking), "Well, judging by the sign, one is frosted flakes and the other is raisin bran!"
The woman looked at me and said (in all seriousness), "Oh, I would have thought that it was rice or something." And then she just walked away! :confused3
:rotfl: There really was no way to confuse what was in those bowls with breakfast cereal.

I heard some things yesterday, but they weren't really funny-funny, more like funny-strange.
While in line for Spaceship Earth, I overheard this interesting snippet of conversation from a mother to her approximately-9yo girl. The mom said, "...and the egg couldn't travel down the tube in the right amount of time... and so I had to get the tubes taken out of me. Does that make a little more sense to you now?" :eek: Interesting conversation while in line for Spaceship Earth... :confused:
While outside Buzz Lightyear:
Woman: This isn't a roller coaster, is it?
Man: I think it is.
Woman: I thought this was the one that just drives around.
Man: No wait, I think this is the one that flies. Yeah, this is the one that flies.
Woman: Okay.

While waiting a long time for the MK bus at the AKL bus stop (I think we had just missed one), a very wealthy/fancy looking woman flagged down a bus that showed for a different park and offered to pay the bus driver money if he would change his route and take her to the MK instead. She was quite serious! The bus driver declined of course. The woman was polite about it and sat back down, but boy did she make the people around her mad for holding up that bus!!

I know that the woman in the Spaceship Earth line must have been talking about having an ectopic (tubal) pregnancy. And sometimes kids ask things at strange times.

Whew! These are hilarious, and although I have nothing to add right now, I just had to read to make sure none of my comments from our last trip made it on here. I can be a little too sarcastic and I was hoping no one would overhear me saying things like, "I wonder when the 3 o'clock parade is?", or "Let's go ride Flyin'" and think I was actually serious. LOL.
Oh I just remembered. My husband and I were at World of Disney, and there was a family Mom, Dad and 2 daughters. Well one of the daughters was pitching a fit like you wouldn't believe! (Don't get me started on the lack of parenting skills at WDW!!) Anyway, instead of heading right back to the car, the mother kept pushing the other one in the stroller while the father carried this flailing, wailing child. The mother kept yelling back to him, "I'm taking her to see the damn squirrels, get over here!!!" I figured out she meant Chip and Dale.
Also overheard:
At AK - "I wonder if that turtle is real?" It is.
"Look a gorilla!" I heard this one for any primate, anywhere. Chimpanzee on the tree of life? No. It's a gorilla. Baboon? Nope, a Gorilla. And so on. In fact we heard this so much that my husband and I now say it for any animal at AK. LOL.

I must have been living in the dark ages, because I have just found the DIS boards and must say they are amazing! I've spent the last few days off and on reading through every page of this thread and have been so amused!
On our last trip to WDW DH and I went with the in laws. My DMIL was scared to death to ride RnR, but peer pressure got the best of her and she finally decided to ride with us. She loved it and on about our fifth trip through, we were in the staging area where Aerosmith comes on the screen and gives their little speil. My DMIL says, "man they have boring jobs," DH and I look at eachother wide eyed thinking can she really think Aerosmith is really in the room with us. We then look at DFIL in unison and he says, "yeah now you guys see what I live with every day!" The whole staging area erupted in laughter.
That was such a fun trip, we are all going back in December, where we're sure to have more blonde moments. :love:

The funniest thing I heard was from my daughter when she was 5. we drove down and stopped at ocala at the Disney welcome center. They have a huge Mickey Mouse out in front of it and the inside is all fixed up with Disney characters and what not in case you havent been there.
Anyway, I purchased my tickets for my daughter and I and as we were walking away, I noticed my daughter crying.. I bent down to ask her what was the matter, and she said, " I thought you said Disney was big" ''where's all the rides at??'' Lol, I had fun explaining that one.

One of the funnier comments DW and I heard was while we were waiting to board the monorail at the Poly, to go to the MK.
A family was in line ahead of us (mon and dad) and had a little girl about 5 or 6 with them, they were asking her what she wanted to do, and what rides that she had seen in the brochure that she wanted to ride. She said the first thing she wanted to do was meet the "wallett mouse" When the mom asked what the "wallet mouse" was, she said: "The mouse that daddy said took his wallett" (dad looked a LITTLE embarassed)
(know that feeling!!!)

I don't know if this is funny, or just sad. I was walking into the MK yesterday and I hear a little girl, maybe about 8 or 9 talking with her father. Judging by their accents, I'm guessing they were English. Anyway, the little girl had asked her father if she did or said something, would he think that was funny and laugh at her. "Oh, honey, I would never laugh at you!" came his reply, and I thought that was sweet, that this father was expressing how he wouldn't ever make fun of his child Then, much to my chagrin, he added "You aren't the least bit funny, don't you remember?" If he was joking, he certainly didn't look it, his expression was completely serious.

Okay true story...
I have a friend that is an AP holder for the DLR and we went to visit them and they were telling us about their upcoming plans to visit WDW for the first time and she was asking me for tips since I am an "expert." She then proceeded to say-
Friend- "Don't worry we are going for three days and we got a 2 day park hopper so that we can go to both parks."
Me- "What do you mean by both parks?"
Friend- "You know, the Disney World and the Epcot."
....My husband and I almost died laughing, but we felt bad too because they had already booked this trip and had no idea that WDW is really a WORLD with 4 theme parks, 2 water parks, PI, DTD etc. etc. And to make it worse they went for New Year's Eve and New Years Day...I have still yet to hear from her on how this went. That just shows how little advertising they do for WDW over here on the west coast...people have no idea what it is!

Then he went on to explain how WDW was only for children while Epcot is for adults. Then he went on to talk about how you should also visit Universal MGM studios and go on TOT.:rotfl2:

LOL...that reminds me of one of the very few WDW negative rating/opinions over on Epinions. The guy goes on and one about stuff that just is not true at all. He said there was no such thing as a pass that allows you to visit more than 1 park. Claimed for his 2 day trip he had to buy 2 2/day 1/park passes to vist 2 parks. There is other stuff too, but his claims about tickets was completely wrong.

I am a big chicken of ToT. I rode it once about 11 years ago and refuse to ride it again. But on our most recent trip to the World, my husband wanted to ride and I agreed to wait in line with him. I asked the first CM I met just how long I could wait in line without actually riding. He told me I could go through the library and into the boiler room. Then I should tell another CM to point me to the exit.
Well, I made it into the library, they closed the door and the movie started. I heard a woman behind me say to her companion "You better grab on to something because when this floor drops...." Her friend FREAKED OUT.
Then I get to the boiler room and ask the CM how to get out - She points me down a hall and tells me to get in an ELEVATOR!!! Are you kiddin'?

For anyone who doesn't know (as if), "Dinosaur" is a rather intense ride in the Animal Kingdom Park.
We didn't realize HOW intense. My very tall kids, DS6 & DD3, who had just seen the "Dinosaur" movie (remember - the one with the lovable vegetarian character, Alidar?) wanted to go on it. They believed they would see the character.
Okay, we said. And on we went. Then: Strobe Lights. Runaway Humvee. Asteroids. Carnivores. Madness ensues.
We pry our weeping three year old from the seats at the end of the ride, and exit through the Dinosaur gift shop as she screams at every person she sees: "There's no Alidar in dere! There's no Alidar in dere! Boy was she pissed.
Amazingly, at 5, she loves the ride and wants ride it every time we go.

I had never been on ToT and never will, but I finally walked through with my family on our trip in December and asked for the chicken exit. They instructed me to get on an elevator to the area where the riders see their picture. So, that is the chicken exit. The cm on that elevator was in character and it was kind of funny. If you are afraid of elevators in general, I don't know how you get out unless you go back the way you came.

I would think there would have to be stairs somewhere for fire emergencies so If someone is really scared of elevators I think they would let you use the stairs. How would someone just wanting to walk thru know that the chicken exit was an elevator. I think they would let you use the stairs if you asked for anouther way out then the elevator. :thumbsup2

For anyone who doesn't know (as if), "Dinosaur" is a rather intense ride in the Animal Kingdom Park.
We didn't realize HOW intense. My very tall kids, DS6 & DD3, who had just seen the "Dinosaur" movie (remember - the one with the lovable vegetarian character, Alidar?) wanted to go on it. They believed they would see the character.
Okay, we said. And on we went. Then: Strobe Lights. Runaway Humvee. Asteroids. Carnivores. Madness ensues.
We pry our weeping three year old from the seats at the end of the ride, and exit through the Dinosaur gift shop as she screams at every person she sees: "There's no Alidar in dere! There's no Alidar in dere! Boy was she pissed.
Amazingly, at 5, she loves the ride and wants ride it every time we go.
:lmao: thts funny

Our family was riding the ToT and there was a little girl (about 7 years old) riding for the first time. Everyone assured her that it would be fun. Well, during the first drop, amongst all the "aaaaaaaaahhhhh"s we heard the little girl yell out "SWEET MOTHER OF PEARL!" Everyone in the "elevator" started cracking up laughing. It was just so weird to hear such an expression from such a young child. And used very appropriately, I might add.:rotfl:

That is just sooooo funny and cute!! :rotfl: My DGD5 cracked me up like that too. She saw something she wanted to eat because it looked good and I told her she couldn't know how good it was because she couldn't eat with her eyes. She looked at me and said, "But Grandma, it looks bon appetit-ish to me." I love the funny things kids come up with. :love:

My new bride and I were on our honeymoon at WDW. We were at MK, and DW had very fond memories of the Tiki Room as a kid, and insisted we go. I thought we had better uses of our time, but we went, and I sat through it, and afterwards started to make fun of it.
As a youngster, one year we went into the Tiki Room (fully believing it to be one of the lamer attractions, this was before the Iago rehad, mind you), just because there was no line, and we wanted to get out of the sun for a few minutes. Every year after that, we had a tradition of going in at least once, just because it was so lame. One time, the CM working the line told us we could go in (us, and the four other people standing there), and said, "Gee, sometimes it's really hard to judge exactly where I have to cut off the line and make people wait for the next show!"

I was in WDW this past Saturday and I heard some real gems! :laughing:
-While waiting for the Nemo musical to begin, a guy behind us was on his cell phone talking excitedly about his amazing day thus far. "I went on the Everest ride," he exclaimed. "It's a train and you go into the Andes mountains." :teeth:
-On the way to Mission: Space, a woman strode ahead of her group pointing to Ellen's Energy Adventure and telling them, "Let's go on Dinosaur!" :confused:
- At Soarin' an older gentleman went to the FastPass line and came back obviously put out. He started to go in the Standby line, and stopped short when he saw the wait time was 75 minutes. Upon turning to the FastPass machines and seeing the sign *All FastPass tickets have been issued for the day* he stormed off yelling, "I'm being gypped!" :confused3
- There is nothing so fun or funny as riding a favorite ride with first-timers. On Test Track, one of the guys riding up front was telling his friends how strange the ride was, and it really wasn't all that fun. Once we got out on the high-speed loops though, he'd changed his tune and was whooping and hollering. He caught sight of the speed counter as we were accelerating toward it and this is what we heard: "80! 80! 80!....... Dammit!" :lmao: After we'd slowed down he also said "That was so cool! Way better than the corrosive chamber!" :laughing:

We were at Typhoon Lagoon last week and I was waiting for my family to come down one of the face-first water slides. A dad and his pre-teen daughter walk by and he says "Boy, I didn't think we were going to get wet on that did you?" To which she replies "No". I'm pretty sure they heard me burst out laughing as they passed me. I mean, you're walking around a waterpark in bathing suits what did you think was going to happen??? :lmao:

Ok, this didn't happen at Disney, but if that bothers you, just pretend it was at the Biergarten. :drinking1
I was at Oktoberfest with several acquaintances, and we were listening to a polka band. They were basically three 70-year old men in liederhosen playing accordions and tubas and the like. They did a song that sounded fairly traditional ("Roll Out the Barrel" or some such), and then all of a sudden went into "Living la Vida Loca."
Thinking that to be a really strange song for a polka band to play, and more than a little bit out of left field, I said, "wow. That's a non-sequitur, don't you think?" The girl beside me agreed, but the girl sitting across from me looked at me like I was a complete moron and said, "um...NO. It's actually Latino!"
I can only hope that she blamed the beer for the fact that the other girl and I laughed ourselves stupid for the next five minutes. Never mind that neither of us drank any of it.

I have a cute little story...
I was in WDW this past October and stayed at the WL. I took the boat over to MK one afternoon for MNSSHP. As we were getting off of the boat ahead of us was a family comprised of mom, dad, and three little girls probably about 7, 5, and 2. All three little ones were dressed as tinkerbell and dad was wearing some very basic pirate gear. Dad was pushing the little one in a stroller and asked the oldest one to please hold open the little gait you have to go thru as you exit the boat. She ran up to the gate and loudly responded "Aye aye Captain Daddy Hook!" Her dad was surprised by here creative response!

I find it all to amazing when people go to the parks not understanding what is available.
Standing in the line for Indiana Jones...i see 3 women studying a map of the parks and doing some talking about what they wanted to see. Etc
And then one of the women says "so what is this we are waiting for"...another woman "soem kind of ride" another woman "no i think it is a show"....2nd woman "how could you have a show of Indiana Jones"
Finally i turn around and tell them it is definitley a show!
Same women, same line, couple minutes later still studying map........"isnt there soemthing were you can just go tot he front of this line" another woman "no that is at Universal" 2nd woman "no it is here but its alot more money"
After much consideration(really truly not wanting to give away any secretsthe more Fps the better for me) i turn and tell them about FASTPASS!

When we were on the safari at AK, one of the elephants was not too shy to show everything he had, and these teenagers in front of us exclaimed to everyone to look at how "huge" it was. We all tried to ignore them, since there were so many families and children around.

Don't worry, you aren't alone in this...This is a daily occurrence--one I always tried to divert people from. People are just so immature about it--not just the teens, either! :confused3
Not to dwell on this, but he honestly can't control it. If you had a chance to watch him long enough, you'd understand. I was told that he was rescued from a circus which had been treating him very badly and keeping him i a very small space, so he now has a bit of a nervous disorder. It so sad... :sad1: At least to me. He loves his home at DAK, though and is much improved from when he first arrived.

I am glad to hear that he is much improved.
My funniest moment is funny for us because we are from Minnesota. Though we are German, my mom and Grandma have embraced a lot of the Norweigan traditions and foods. Well, we were in Norway this past spring in the Kringla Bakeri getting some good eats :thumbsup2 when we hear a family behind us order "lef-see" and ask what it was. The girl explained that it was a potato flat bread rolled up with brown sugar and cinnamon. The dad replied, "So, it's like a tortilla?" Hmmm...not really. Later, in the seating area, we saw the family with their lefse and they were scraping out the insides. :scared1: We were horrified! That's the best part! Why even order it at all?
Before I get angry messages, this was amusing for my family becase we make lefse a lot at home and we got a kick out of the dad's pronounciation. The correct pronounciation is more like "lef-suh". And I know that there are a lot of things we don't pronounce correctly, especially places in New England.

We were in AK this past Monday and were watching this little girl recite the pledge of how she would take care of the animals when she got her last stamp "of all the ones she was collecting that day". She was probably 5 at the most. The CM was telling her if she saw a bug, put a cup over it and slide a paper under it so she could move it outside instead of squishing it. The CM said she does sometimes squish roaches. The little girl said "We have lots of roaches at our house!" Her eyes were so BIG!!!!

I think one of the funniest things I heard came from a CM and then the response my brother gave, I still laugh now.
We were riding on the tram that takes you back to the car park and as many of you many know at the end of the day the CM at the back of the tram likes to make jokes to keep everyone entertained... well we arrived at a section of the car park and the over the tannoy came "please do not get off the tram until it has come to a complete stop, you will know when it has come to a complete stop when we are moving at the same speed as the pavement" my brother then proceeded to say "but the pavement isn't moving". What makes it worse is that we were at the back of the tram next to the CM making the announcements who heard everything and who continued to say over the tannoy "yes that means we have stopped" We laughed for so long!!!

It's a sentimental favorite of ours, and there's nothing quite like having that song stuck in your head all day. :rotfl: On our first ride we were greeted by an older CM and ushered into the room along with quite a few other people. The CM picks up the microphone and asks how many were riding COP for the first time. Much to our surprise we were the only veterans on the ride. The CM then announced that the newbies were in for a great treat. He cautioned them to make sure they were in a seat with a working seatbelt and to pick up their 3D glasses from underneath their seats in order to fully and safely enjoy the show. We fell out of our chairs laughing, as did the CM, as we watched the newbies lean underneath their chairs to find those much-needed glasses. :lmao:

I have it on video and laugh about it every single time I see it. No joke!!! :rotfl:

It's a sentimental favorite of ours, and there's nothing quite like having that song stuck in your head all day. :rotfl: On our first ride we were greeted by an older CM and ushered into the room along with quite a few other people. The CM picks up the microphone and asks how many were riding COP for the first time. Much to our surprise we were the only veterans on the ride. The CM then announced that the newbies were in for a great treat. He cautioned them to make sure they were in a seat with a working seatbelt and to pick up their 3D glasses from underneath their seats in order to fully and safely enjoy the show. We fell out of our chairs laughing, as did the CM, as we watched the newbies lean underneath their chairs to find those much-needed glasses. :lmao:
:rotfl2: I love it!

My best friend and I were in DL on Friday. We went in to see the ASIMO show (kind of interesting) and before the show, they were doing questions up on the tv. Well there is one question...what writer did Walt Disney get a lot of his inspiration for Tomorrowland from? The answer was of course Jules Verne, and they put up a picture of Walt reading 20,000 Leagues. My friend looks at me, dead serious and says...Who is that guy reading the book? :confused: (yeah, she isn't a Disney freak!) I was so disappointed in her at that moment. She tried to cover it, but I knew she was lost...

A couple of years ago in MK there was a photo of Walt Disney and Shirley Temple behind some glass sitting on a shelf in one of the buildings near the entrance. I was looking at it when a woman and her husband came over to look too.
I nearly lost it when I heard her say to her husband, "Oh, that's Shirley Temple and Charlie Chaplin" :lmao:
