Funniest comments you've overheard in WDW

[AnaheimGirl]

This is another one not heard at Disney, but about Disney... On the TV show "Street Smarts" (a game show where the host finds people on the street and asks them questions to which they often have really dumb answers), the question is asked "What's the name of the main road that takes you into the Magic Kingdom?" (or something like that -- it was obvious the answer was Main Street).

This woman thinks a minute and answers "Apricot Center. You know, there's that big apricot there."

And you thought "the big golf ball" was bad.

I have heard many many comments over the years. One of my favorites is when my dad and I were waiting for my mom and sister to come back from the bathroom. This dad and his son were were arguing about something and then the dad said to his son "were going to walk over that trash can and you are going to throw that attitude away."

I love this! I am a teacher, and I will be using this one!

My nephew said this one, when he was just over 2. My nephew had a small blanket that is some kind of person. Meaning the blanket has 3 knots tied into it to form the head and 2 arms. He also had the nasty habit of sucking on those knots to the point where they were wet. Because of this we called his blanket the "skanky blanky". We were walking through AK in 2003 and were looking for his skanky blanky as he was going down for a nap in the stroller. My sister-in-law calls out, "Has anyone seen Connor's skanky blanky?" I was bringing up the rear in our grand gathering and could hold in my laughter when I saw the families' reactions that heard this as we were passing by.

I could see the gears grinding in their brains and a look of disgust on their faces. It was priceless!

A couple of weeks ago while my husband and I were walking out of the Mexican pavillion at Epcot we heard a father tell his daughter who was about 12 years old, "Now you can tell everyone mommy got drunk in Mexico!" It was more shocking than funny at the time...

Ok so I didn't actually overhear this one my friend did and thought it was so fuinny. She shares this one on a regular bases. Will waiting in line a mother turned to her whinny kids and said "Don't make me take my shoe off again!" It was the again part that DF thought was so funny

Last weekend we were walking past the Leave a Legacy wall. A boy about 8 or 9, looked up at his mom and exclaimed, "Are all these people dead!?"

I'm not surprised! This area looks like a graveyard to me, too. I HATE it.

Ditto! Who remembers all the beautiful flowers there?
Sorry to hijack this thread-carry on!

Okay not at Disney but this board related.

Shortly after booking our upcoming trip I was spending lunch hours here on the boards getting caught up.

So for a few days I was coming home and at dinner sharing my findings with DW and DD9.

On about the third day I said oh on the boards today i found out...

Interrupting me DD says "Do you do any work? "

Said by a Dad to his two small children (around ages 6 and 8) as they were leaving the Germany pavillion, each holding what looked to be a glass of white wine: 'Now that's it! You kids are cut off from the wine!'

My favorite funny/shocking moment happened last year - my boyfriend and I were in line to meet Aladdin & Jasmine. We were the last people in line and then the CM there closed the line and said they would re-open the line at 7:45pm (here it was, 7:15pm) This girl comes up behind us and the CM tells her that the line is closed but said the girl could wait until 7:45 or come back at that time. The girl (and when i say girl, she was probably in her mid- to -late teens, but she was there with what I assume was a younger sister) starts yelling and ranting about how they've waited all day to see them, and they can't just leave, they HAVE TO take pictures and sign autographs. The CM said (and SOOOO sweetley, i would have smacked this chick) well, they need to take a break just like anyone else, they've been out here for 2 hours. The girl goes "so get another Aladdin and Jasmine out here then! The CM goes "Uhh....there's only one Aladdin and Jasmine! Well the girl sat down and sulked and me & my boyfriend went up and had pictures taken. Jasmine says to me "what's going on out there?" I told her that the girl was complaining and told the CM that they weren't allowed to take a break. Then, totally out of character (which is VERY unlike them, but she must have been really upset/uncomfortable) Jasmine says, "Man, I have to go to the bathroom SO BAD!"

One late night, after a long, hot day at MK (my Dad definitely believed in commando style!) we were on the tram back to the car.

OK...this is the funniest thing I've read (not heard) on this thread...as "commando style" DEFINITELY means something else around here , and so I am wondering why Dad is going commando, and how it relates to the long hot day (commando would make it cooler...getting my drift yet?) ...so I am thinking along these lines and just cannot sort it out?!? Then...oh, something else...I get it ...like does WDW aggressively - attacks with vigor ...not what I am thinking ...THANK GOODNESS! The other "translation" just went too far too fast in the wrong direction. My faith in the world (or should I say World) is restored.

But the first line of thought was pretty entertaining!!

 

[Simba22]

. It still scares the heck out of me, but I still go on it.

I wouldn't go on TOT the first time I went to WDW either...of course the first time I went on it, I was petrified! Of course we bought the picture, and there is my brother and my boyfriend with their arms in the air, LAUGHING hysterically, and my sister and I are holding each other's arms screaming in horror! My boyfriend and I went back last year alone and I was determined to get a picture of us on the ride, where I didn't look like I needed to change my shorts. We did MGM twice that week and must have rode that elevator 10 times each day....I still didn't leave there with a TOT picture...I looked scared out of my ever-loving mind in every one of them!

On my last day of my January trip I was in front of the Haunted Mansion and a girl about 10, looks at the Haunted Mansion then looks toward Fantasyland, stamps her feet and declares "I am NOT going on any ride that is not in Fantasyland."

Her mother walks over to a Haunted Mansion CM with the daughter and wants the CM to tell her daughter that it's not scary. Well the CM remains in character and says "my home is not a scary place" or something like that .

The mother was a little peeved.

"You kids are cut off from the wine" - what the heck? This is hysterical!

I love how you tell your story with all the smiles.... It made me laugh out loud!

From our trip last Sept - DS12 (who has Down Syndrome, so isn't always on par with his chronological age), gets great joy out of trying to get his dad and I in trouble with each other.

Power Rangers are something he loves, but are forbidden in our house - too much trouble at school when he pretends they are all with him - like he won't board the school bus until all of the imaginary rangers do.)

Anyway, I really wanted to see the parade at MGM and he didn't. So I told him he might see the Power Rangers to coax him. So we saw them in the parade. Then later, we were in the "wrong" spot at the wrong time and here they come for a meet a greet. What's a mother to do? I HAD to let him get pics and autographs! (And it was great to see him SO excited to meet his idols!)

Anyway, to this day, he tries to tell DH that I should be in trouble because I "made" him see the Power Rangers.

A waiter at the Whispering Canyon Cafe was heard referring to the Grand Floridian as "The Red Roof Inn" --which I found really funny.

When "Universe of Energy" in Epcot had to shut down due to problems during the Final Jeopardy part, my wife yelled out - "I guess they ran out of energy!".

Upon returning home, I've been talking with my son (6) about his favorite parts of Disney. He talked about seeing a fire truck. This had me confused. Did he see one on Main Street?
He said, "That character that snuck up on us".
Turns out fire truck was actually "Friar Tuck".

I don't think I already posted this, so I apologize if it's a repeat.

This past summer DH and I were riding the bus from BB back to the resort and passed MGM along the way. Two ladies across from us were looking out the window and one of them pointed and said "Oh, look at that nice hotel. We should stay there next time!" Of course she was pointing at the TOT Hollywood Hotel.

Well, I'll stay there too if I can stay in the parks all night!

My Hubby and I just got back from a trip to DL and I kept my ears open for anything I could post here.

The funniest I heard was when we were in Calif Adv and a man was talking to a CM and to someone in his party on his cell.

He says on the cell "I'll meet you there" he turns to the CM and says "how do I get to City Hall?" The CM replies "You need to go over to the Magic Kingdom" The dad says "well, then where am I?"
