Lime Green.. is this the thing of the past? - Page 4 - The DIS Discussion Forums

RustManFan · 06-20-2012, 12:27 PM

I am a DISigner on the Creative Boards forum and people continue to request lime green Mickey heads with their forum names quite regularly.

Had mine on my backpack last trip and a woman rushing by in SOARIN' line grabbed in and said "I DIS too!" We had no time to chat but it was nice that it was acknowledged!!

I have never had anyone notice my LGMH but I keep hoping. I promise to be friendly!

Same here.. I honesty don't remember the start of "LGMH". I've been away from the DIS for some years. What I did before LGMH was to wear a lime green ribbon pinned to my shirt and one pinned to my backpack and that was it. A nice lady did come up to me and asked me if I was from the DIS, her name was Colleen and we met at the Polynesian gift shop.

I'll have to look for one for myself. Thanks for the info.

Yep, had that experience more than once. So now? I just keep to myself.

same here... i finally spotted a lime green mickey head on one of my trips - i approached in a very friendly manner and she snootily acknowledged she was a DISer and then i got snubbed! i was so embarrassed and i don't think i can bring myself to approach another LGMH wearer again

on the other hand, i always forget to bring/wear one. i am noting on my list of "things to do" to make sure i remember this time... so, if anyone wants to approach me i will welcome it

We are going in October for F&W and FD this year so hopefully we will see more DISers! Maybe I will even decorate our window.

looks like we will be there at the same time! say hi if you see me, lol!! we are decorating our window and door too!!

In April we took the Hawaiian cruise and spent a few days at DL before. Both my husband and myself had the line green Mickey heads from Home Depot on the front of our shirts and no one came us to us and I know that there had to be a lot of Disboarders there because there were over 200 on the cruise that I know of.

I'll definitely look for you. We are arriving October 19th and now I will make sure I decorate our window!

I promise to be friendly if I do see you. I don't know why people would bother wearing them if they didn't want to be chatted up!

Yep, same here

. I love it when other DISers come up to me, and I don't mind going up to others that have them too. My whole family proudly displays our LGMHs on each of our suit cases plus on our backpack for the parks.

I am going to wear one in September too...please come up and say hi!

I spotted a LGMH when I was there about 5 years ago (and had one on my own backpack), the other family and I chatted very briefly about being on the Dis but were heading in opposite directions for ADRs so it was a very short conversation. But nice!

I also approached a car in the pick-up line at my daughter's school which had a bumper sticker that included a LGMH and asked if they were posters on the Disboards. Unfortunately, the mom was not - it was just a bumper sticker she had bought somewhere - so she probably thinks I am crazy now.

Oh well.

We will be there next week...I probably won't have any lime green anything, but I'm easy to spot. I will be pushing DS in a wheelchair and he is bald...not too many kids who are bald out there. He still looks pretty much like the pic I have here. Stop and say hi if you see us!
