What's wrong with that? Don't believe in breastfeeding or something?

Actually, if we had a baby, my wife would feed it (discreetly) whereever he/she (not it) was hungry. I put that in there because I have seen so many posts on the DIS complaining about inappropriate breastfeeding. The comment about slurping is because my oldest (now 17) once made a very loud slurping noise while being fed on the back row in church.

Just keep your foot in the door of the monorail. That way, it can't close so the train can't move too!

Don't know why, but that one made me laugh out loud!

He doesn't find it funny.

 

[ktglads]

Its like free daycare! He can sit there and I'm sure after a while some people will come sit with him. That way, you can have fun in the parks and get to see the shows with awesome seats. Best of both worlds. What does your son know? He's the youngest and should do what everyone tells him to do and be happy about it!

Oh so funny - I didn't realize it was a joke until the part about the bacon! ROFLOL!

 

[rexmundi]

Don't forget to pack your extra-tight Speedo for the water parks (or even for just strolling around Epcot.)

You have all made me laugh so loud! Thanks!

Now I have a tip for you

If you want to renew your wedding vows, don't go through the hassle of doing it officially, just sneak a quick ceremony in front of the castle. Maybe you knew that part, so here's the tip: do it at the very end of your day, then when they throw you out, you were leaving anyway so who cares!

You could also try refusing to leave - sit on the ground and link arms, and maybe they will *carry* you out, thus saving you that long tiresome walk back to the car.

And don't forget to drink from the water fountains just after you leave the restrooms, where you didn't bother washing your hands. Hey, you wiped 'em off on your pants, right? Who needs soap! Then everyone can get your nasty stomach virus and blame the water!

Okay, in that case..... since being sarcastic about OTHERS complaining about this (I should have got that to begin with)- I get it now. Sorry for being so slow. Can I atleast plea tired-mommy brain? LOL

So how far down the list were you before you realised this was a joke?! Be honest now .....

It took me to paragraph 4/5 to fall in. My only defence is that it is still early in the morning here!

 

[philaround]

I can't follow most of your advice. No kids on this trip. I am so distraught!!!!!!!!!!!

I was suspect after the refillable mugs.

I KNEW when I got to the breastfeeding.

 

[laurie31]

To be honest, I was suspect when I read that the OP had "bought 7 day hoppers with 5 days left" - LOL!! My first thought was that he'd been scammed, but then when he called his 3 year old "it" I was even more suspect. Some people do call their infants "it" (which drives me nuts) but usually by age 3 or 4 you don't see that Then the refillable mugs from '91 cinched it. By the part about a more powerful flash for the shows I was LOL!

I thought of another great tip for saving money on food. It sounds like you're well-prepared for the buffets, but at those expensive sit-down places, you should eat 1/2 to 3/4 of your luncheon entree then discover that it's undercooked and send it back for a replacement. Threaten to call the health department if they resist. Then you get two meals for the price of one. Get a to-go box for the second entree and voila - dinner is served!

Oh, and make sure you're really rude to all the guests from other countries. We don't want them to like it over here so much that they decide to stay or something. I know sometimes it can be hard to tell who's a foreigner and who's not, so just be rude to everyone, to be on the safe side!

LOL!!! I'll be there with you too. I was thinking that I can't wait to cut in line at the character greeting so my children can get there first. Want to join me?

 

[Gregg]

high-larious!

You forgot a good one though -- bringing the Aerobed so that you can cram 10 people in a single room.

We've used that one on many occasions. Don't forget to hide it under you clothes so housekeeping doesn't see it!

[ktglads]

10 people? What, are you staying at the all-stars or something? Come on! You can get at least 15 into a moderate and a couple more into a deluxe. Make sure you just tell the front desk that you are staying by yourself so you don't have to pay for ANY additional adults. Also, make sure that before you go to the parks in the morning, you mark off enough seats for everyone to have 2 apiece so that you will have good seats by the pools when you get back. You don't want to chance that! Oh, and make sure you have ALL family arguments after 12 at night OUTSDIE your room, preferably where it can echo down a hallway!

 

[tinkerbell211]

We're leaving in 7 days too! I feel so special to be going at the same time as someone like you with so much good advice to share! We can't decide whether to try to fit all 12 of our family in one resort room or just take turns sleeping in the car in the parking lot. Just so we can all take showers, use the pools and the early entry. Any suggestions?

Stay in the car and bring a bar of soap to the pool.

 

[magic teacup]

Philaround you have me in tears over that, I'm picturing Fantasia pool in ASMO with the shower from Mickey already coming down. Bubbles bubbles all around.........laughing again ......ooops fell off my chair.

Actually, there is a dead giveaway right at the top. Anytime you see the phrase "A Modest Proposal", it indicates that the writing is satire. (A reference to a 1729 essay with that title, by Jonathan Swift of Gulliver's Travels fame.)
