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!" cIt'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, as we were taking off, some guys say "woooo" and raise their hands as if they were on a ride
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 love that confidence that little girls have when they're small.
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?"
I later found out it was her 16 year oold brother
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.
THANK YOU. For a while I thought I was the only one who didn't find this amusing at all. It's not cute, or funny, it's plain rude and nasty.
), her attitude and language were completely uncalled for.
At least my DD isn't the only one who calls lettuce salad. Maybe she has a little British in her!
)
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!
P.s I love this thread
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.
