Jerkiest Thing A WDW Guest Can Do

[luvthemouse71]

I voted line cutting, followed by yelling at a CM and then flash photography on rides.

I voted line-cutting, except for special circumstances like when a child has to go to the bathroom, or something along those lines.

It just says that you, the line-cutter, think you and your family are more important than anyone else waiting in line, by doing it deliberately.

Same thing for people who wait for the parade for long periods of time, and then at the last minute, someone else thinks they should be in the very front, and tries to crowd in front of those who have been waiting.

Here's some video of a shockingly jerky family.
There is part #1 and part #2 of a family on IASW throwing coins at the audioanimatronic children.
In the second part, the kids really get into flinging the coins as hard as possible, while the adults watch.
Seriously?

Cutting in line is the rudest due to what the person above me said. I also voted taking flash photography, although that is not as rude because most of those people have no clue how distracting it is to everyone else.

Jerkiest thing a guest can do? LIE, CHEAT or STEAL.

 

[kaligal]

the things that most annoy me in the parks are the line cutting and bright stuff on dark rides.

I'm in .......

I love Gus!!!

Gus would never cut in line!

I thought mine was the only crazy family that played these games in WDW. We call it "Collecting Angry Dads." The best I've seen was the angry Dad who was threatening to call security on his children who appeared to be about 5 and 6 years old.

PS. I didn't vote because I find all of them to be equally jerky.

You can vote for all of them. It's multiple choice.

I voted for not giving your seat to someone who needs it. This is assuming that you are able bodied and the other person is obviously not.
I couldn't imagine watching someone with a disability (or very elderly and frail, or 9 months pregnant) struggling to remain standing on the bus while I sat comfortably in my seat. To me that would be much jerkier than line cutting or using an old mug.

 

[sdzman]

Anyonw who does any of those things is a jerk and deserves: blisters on his/her feet, lost ADRs, the only WDW room on property with bedbugs, being stuck on a broken down monorail, a 220 minute wait at TSM, chaffed thighs, a ripped poncho, and getting stuck on the Stitch ride with the shoulder restraints in the down position.

 

[Murron]

how come you don't have a category stating "all of the above" ???

 

[si-am]

To me, the "jerkiest" thing someone can do is yell at a CM who is just trying to do his/her job. That's jerky.

It's different than the things that *annoy* me the most, which would be flash photography in dark rides and the 20 family members with ECVs who cut in front of everyone else.

No, no. The worst thing you can do is go out of your way to ignore and mock a cast member.

Just be sure that I am not there.

The last time I was at WDW, the DGF and I were doing Epcot which is my favorite of the bunch. She makes out a schedule and it works pretty well except, to punish her for making me go see Ellen drone on about energy--I hope the dinosaurs eat her one of these days--I take her to Captain EO. Now we both love Michael Jackson. But I adore Captain EO (as I hope the name indicates) and she, at best, tolerates it.

So we get there and there is only cast member, a lovely girl named Amber who was very friendly and professional. But we have to wait 20 minutes for Captain EO and, as so often happens in my life, I get dangerous when I get bored.

Amber kept telling the guests not to sit down for their own safety but there was a whole family that kept sitting down. Amber would walk over to them and tell them to please stand up. Once Amber walked off, the family, en masse, promptly sat down again.

After this happened 5 times, I could no longer control myself. The family was sitting down, all of them mocking Amber. Since I was concerned about my safety, I remained standing--which gave me the tactical advantage. Yes, to quote my favorite Confederate general (James Longstreet), you must always hold the high ground.

Since I was standing and the family was not, I was in prime position to pass gas in their faces. And I promptly did so. The silent blade cuts best! I allowed myself an archaic smile, much like a statue from antiquity, as I could hear the family complain about the smell but, of course, they did not realize that I had ripped one on them on purpose.

I suppose I should be ashamed of myself and there are times that I actually am. But they had crossed the line so to speak in disobeying Amber who was there representing the Mouse.

I have done many bad things in line. One time, I was on Space Mountain and this little boy is so afraid that he has to get out of line. I shook my fist and waved it at the parents. "How do you expect your son to be a man if he does not ride Space Mountain?" I demanded.

The family did not hear me but the woman in front of me did. She turned to me with a look of horror on her face--and then she started laughing as she realized that I was correct and trying to shape a manly society.

I did a jerky thing. But I think the family that mocked Amber were acting even more like jerks.

 

[tinkerbellandeeyor]

Why dont they have a forum on here just dedicated for complaining?

I would like to see that

Farting in line is by far he worst - well that and not wearing deodorant.

That is just gross

Anyone who says the words I paid XXX amount for this vacation...
It doesn't matter how that sentence ends

That spells entitlement if you ask me

 

[DizzDoll]

Blew it out my cheeks on "fartriloquist"!

 

[disneyfav4ever]

I had to vote for a bunch of the options. I hate line cutters, as well as people who show up two minutes before a parade starts and expect to sit right up front. Yelling is never acceptable. Also, a general pet peeve of mine is people who don't say excuse me or thank you, etc. I find that very rude.

This topic has set my mind racing.

A few weeks ago, my DGF and I were at ropedrop for the Magic Kingdom. The train came...and there is no nice of way of putting this, we were stuck with Mickey and a bunch of third string characters. Even the mayor of Main Street did not show up. We got the fire marshal. We got Mickey of course. And the White Rabbit. And Dale from the future but no Chip. Stitch was there. So was the raccoon from Pocahontas and a young woman who, I think, was supposed to be Wendy from Peter Pan. So the crowd starts booing. It was awful. The ropedrop show is an extra bonus to your day--and since you don't see Ariel or Donald, you start booing? Jerks.

Then there are guests who are simply wrong when they lash out at CMs. I once was on Splash Mountain behind an English family. We exit the ride together and the mother from England rips a poor cast member for the content. Apparently her children are now corrupted by hearing the creatures sing "pretty good show us your bum" to them.

Except that's not what they are singing. They are singing "pretty good sure as you're born." I wanted to say to the lady, this is from "Song of the South." The South. It ranges from roughly the Chesapeake to somewhere in east Texas, from parts of Kentucky down to just north of I-4. The South in "Song of the South" is not Suffolk and the Isle of Wight. The critters are not demanding guests show them their rear end--and had the woman thought about it, she may have realized that Br'er Rabbit and company are not exactly English. If Mr. Toad or Mary Poppins demanded guests show him or her their bum, the mother would have a point. But that's not what happened--and she should have realized that before yelling at a cast member. Jerk.
