Have you ever had a shock?

[MinnieM21]

The Riddle thread reminded me of a shocking riddle I overheard a classless father telling his 6- or 7-year-old daughter. Q: "Why is Mickey going to divorce Minnie?" A: "Because she's f-ing Goofy." And no, he didn't use the abbreviation I just used; he actually said the F-word!

Last year I was shocked at the number of people in motorized scooters. Now I will not presume to say that many of them are just lazy and should have been walking, but I did see many of them get up and walk when it was convenient. And just as there are inconsiderate car drivers, there are inconsiderate scooter drivers. We pedestrians are at their mercy. I suppose as long as medicare pays for these things, they will be everywhere.

Now before you flame me, I know that they are a blessing to many people who would be confined at home if they didn't have them.

Unfortunately there are things considered "invisible disabilities" that warrant using a scooter. I would much rather someone use a scooter when needed and walk "when convienent" than watch someone pass out from overloading themselves with the activities. Please I know you don't mean anything by this post but I just felt you should know that not all disabilities are easily visible.

OK, not too shocking but I'll add it to the thread to keep it going...
We were at the inspection table before entering Epcot. This couple on the other side of the table were getting their backpack inspected. The guard pulls out two pair of bug eyes (3d glasses from ITTBAB) these people had stolen. The guard (without mentioning a word) put them both on his head, gave the backpack back to the owners and told them to proceed.
So lesson learned, if you are going to be stupid enough to steal stuff try to remember to get rid of the evidence before going thru the inspection.

A security guard did this at MGM by Al's toy barn. The kids had 3d glasses as souviners and they handed them to there mom who put them in her bag. The guard came over and said" I will return those for you" I mean come on are they such a"must have" LOL

Jclark,

I agree, come people in ECVs can be a little reckless. I use a manual wheelchair and I have to say a good percent of the time I am at the mercy of pedestrians. People that look anywhere but foward and then run smack into you and get pissed at you because you aren't watching where you're going, just for example.

In general, I have no problem with breastfeeding in public. As long as you don't whip the puppy out in full view of everyone and leave it there while Jr. hooks up. It sounds like MommyPoppins did it right. She was pretty discreet and covered up.

"whip the puppy out" "while jr. hooks up"

As a BFer who never Bfed in public (son was too much of a mover and never wanted his head covered) the terminology used when describing BFing in public amazes me.

I have not noticed one BFer while at WDW. I guess if your not scoping out for them you wouldn't notice.

Ok, I was trying to cast a little humor on the subject. For the record, I've never noticed any breastfeeding of any variety while at WDW.

So did I.

We may want to steer away from this topic, I would hate to see this thread get closed.

Ok, to change the topic, I'll repost that I saw a young lady remove here underwear from under her (very short) skirt while in the HM line. All I could think at the time was, "wait until I post this on the shock thread."

Last May we were staying at BC and DD4 was playing on the sand area at SAB. A little boy about 3 stood up, pulled down his pants and started to pee. Right in front of DD.

I was sitting on the side of the pool drinking a Margarita. Well, the Margarita ended up in the pool when I ran over to move her away.

The lifeguard just sat there and ignored it. I had to say something to her twice before she stopped talking to another lifeguard and called someone. Meanwhile she did nothing to keep the other kids from playing in it. I watched from the side of the pool, it took about 20 minutes for someone to show up and they just dug up the sand and took it away. But all the kids had moved it around to other areas by then. YUK!

Ok, where were this little angel's parents?

What!?! Why would you do that? Well, I know reasons why SOME people would do that before going into a dark ride, but I like to think that doesn't happen at Disney...

That is disgusting

But I'm sure it happens. But you know that the CMs have those cameras, so wouldn't it be funny that when ever they caught some one doing that, they could just turn on a big spot light, then over the loud speaker say something like, "The Ghost are Watching You!"

I bet they couldn't get off one another fast enough. And they will think again before they think about doing it again. And they might even tell their friends, so they won't be caught.

Or at least one could hope.

I never saw them.

I may not have been standing right next to DD, but at least I could see her and kept an eye on her.

While standing in a VERY long line at one of the food stations in the POP, a little girl walked up to her dad and quietly ask "Daddy?" He then in turned YELLED "WHAT!" The look on that little girl's face was horrible. I felt so bad, so did the other dozen or so moms that witnessed it. We all then began to talk rather loudly on how lousy it was for him to do that to her, then we preceeded to let his wife know, who had also just walked up on how he had treated his daughter,of course not by teling her but commenting LOUDLY to each other. I bet he got the couch/floor that night!

Maybe she had never been on it before and thought it would scare the "stuff" out of her.

You ALWAYS want to have on clean underwear!

Okay, so technically this happened at EuroDisney but it fits the bill. It was late, and crowds were low, which means there was little line for BTMRR. Ahead of us were two young boys who had obviously entered puberty, but not much beyond that. They were sweaty. In their hands were sweaty t-shirts. In line we caught the first hint of their offensive odor, but it wasn't until we were loaded two rows behind them that we became REALLY certain. Throughout the ride they waved their arms and shirts in the air, and made it quite clear that that were very proud to be offending the people behind them. (They were trying to get the ride to themselves.) It was one of the worst things I have ever smelled, but they didn't know us. After that, we stayed clear of them, but we were not going to be deterred!

While at Peco Bills I asked the Cm if there was anywhere I could get chicken nuggets for DS she said go to the Liberty Tavern. A parade was about to start and I was worried I would get caught there so I high tailed it over. I got to the podium and asked the CM there if they had chicken nuggets. She just kept repeating how they were booked and they were not seating. I explained that I was just looking for somewhere to get chicken nuggests for my son and Peco Bill's sent me down there. She then said they weren't seating because they were booked. I was getting nowhere with her so I asked the CM standing next to her if there was somewhere I could get chicken nuggets for my DS. She sent me to another place across the street then they sent me to another. I spent a good 15 minutes going from place to place. So as I am running around like a nut it dawn's on me that neither of them answered me. So I went back in and asked again. "I know you aren't seating people but do you serve chicken nuggets?" She said "Yes but we are not seating anyone."

So I was a little annoyed but kind of understood why she sent me away. They couldn't seat me and they don't do take out. So I just said to her. "I understand you are not seating people but you could have just told me you served chicken nuggets and not send me to another place. I just spent 15 minutes running around only to come back here again. Every place I went to says you serve chicken nuggets. Please if anyone else gets sent here just tell them you do not do take away orders. All the other counter places said you do."

I was thinking I had the wrong place the first time I was there. SHe was worried I was trying to seat because they were booked. All I wanted were chicken nuggets instead I got a workout. DS wound up getting a cheeseburger after all of that LOL.

It stinks but some CMs are ready for a confrontation from the guests. So I guess rather than try to tell me they don't do take away and get into an arguement, she just sent me away on a goose chase. I guess she didn't think that all the other places would tell me to go back there. The screwed up thing is I understood the take away thing I would not have argued. The run around was more annoying than my child not getting nuggets.

Oh another shocking thing (which others have stated) were the amount of sea gulls. I have been in Feb before and never seen it that bad.....Of course with my luck I got pooped on in Epcot. Another shock is how short the faucets are. I never noticed you can barely fit your hands under them. Much less your head. Yeah I was lucky to get it in the hair.
