Beer at Magic Kingdom

[Planogirl]

I know you can buy alcohol at HS and AK but no one is complaining about that...only Epcot which is apparently over run by drunk millionaires (being a millionaire is the only way you could afford to be drunk at Epcot!)

You aren't kidding! How does anyone afford the drinks at WDW to begin with? I'd say that Disney might be keeping the drink prices high to discourage too much drinking but then logically they must also be discouraging too much eating.

With all due respect, when people say "if you can't make it through the day without a drink, you have a problem" in answer to people CLEARLY saying they'd just like a glass of wine or a beer with dinner, YES THEY ARE suggesting that's the case. Just because they didn't phrase it exactly that way doesn't mean that's not what they're saying.

Anyone who wants to back down from that now, fine. Welcome back to sanity.

Since I don't drink wine or beer with dinner - EVER, rarely drink at all, and personally have no problem with the MK being dry, the only reason I joined this conversation was BECAUSE I read people jumping (unfairly) all over people who did want that glass of wine or pint of beer as if they were raging alcoholics. It was just so massively unfair, I had to respond.

And if you don't want this conversation to "escalate", reframing things that were said to fit your purpose doesn't help.

If you look back that was an offhand comment someone made to the subject in general about why it shouldn't be a big deal. It was not made in response to any one in particular. No one was jumped all over with claims of raging alcoholsm as you suggest.

Furthermore I did not "reframe" any thing to "fit [my] purpose". Editting of a comment is mostly done for brevity in order to respond to specific comment while leaving extraneous content out. Nothing I editted changed the context of of the words as written. This is not uncommon. In order to prevent a repeat accusation I have left this entire post intact...
