Formal or informal dining?

[CruellaDuVille]

IMHO, our whole country is beginning to look like a bunch of slobs. People used to look forward to vacations (whether they were rich or poor) and look forward to dressing appropriately.

Been to Las Vegas lately? Frank and Dino would roll over in their graves to see all of the pot bellies and t shirts at the tables.

Been to church lately? My (not rich) Grandma and Grandpa (union auto worker) went every Sunday and Grandma managed to wear a pretty hat and dress and Grandpa ALWAYS wore a suit. Now it's slob-time (with notable exceptions).

There is a time and a place for EVERYTHING. You wouldn't want to be caught at a Grateful Dead concert (hey, they're coming back sans Jerry) in a suit, WOULD YOU?

If you don't want to sell out to the establishment, then hey, have some FUN with it. Make it a costume. Dress like Elton John on a good light. Dress like Prince Charming.

Please lighten up, use some Disney imagination and have some fun.

PS I was TOTALLY grossed out by a sweaty guy and his arm pit hair and his "wife beater" shirt (Jockey strap thing) dining at the WDW Swan. This country is getting more than dumbed down, it's getting downright gross!

We seem to like to have this discussion every few months or so on the Cruise Board, and generally it ends up on the Debate Board, and it looks like this is no exception. I'm going to close this here and if you'd like to start a thread on the Debate Board regarding the issue please feel free.
