One of the funniest things I've ever heard at WDW:

[amzking]

Now that is funny!.

I have been calling MK, Disney for almost 40 years. HS is still MGM to me and there are a host of other things too.

Yes, me too, I have been going since 1971 and still catch myself calling MK Disney World. I think because MK was all there was when we started going.

Disney will 'build it and they will come,' but there's no guarantee they will understand.

True. So very true!

about 5 years ago,, my husband and I had dinner at CG. We came down the elevator and decided to expore the Contemporary. at one point we took a restroom break. I went into the ladies room, and heard a voice when i was coming out of the stalls. lined up with the sinks is a child sized sink and this 4year old was singing every single line of small world. her mom was still in the stall, i smiled and went to wash my hands, she was just singing away.......
mom comes out while i am drying my hands and said"can you guess where we were today?" I said enjoy-she sings very well.

IT made my day seeing a small child soooo happy.

 

[SoMosMom]

"What were you thinking! I thought you loved me! I could have been killed!" When I reminded her that she insisted on riding. She yelled, "What do I know! I'm a kid, you're supposed to be the adult! Geez! ..... she could have been killed, and grandparents are supposed to take care of their grandkids. She then started stalking off muttering to herself about how adults shouldn't be responsible for kids.

That is freaking HILARIOUS!!! ....and, boy have her parents got their hands full!!! Wow.

 

[SoMosMom]

Second happened the other night on the bus from MK to Pop Century, it was EMH evening, we were all tired and wanting to get back to the resort, when someone on the bus passed gas, and it was TOXIC, so these two southern guys started making comments about the smell, and how bad it was, but the funniest to me was when the announcement came over the loudspeaker about taking small children by the hand, one of them said "the children are all dead, they suffocated from the smell", ..... now whenever we smell something nasty we say to each other in a southern accent "the children are all dead,they suffocated from the smell!" and it gets us going now.
Jules

OMG!!! I literally laughed out loud and my eyes watered from laughing so hard!!! Totally sounds like something I would say.... still laughing at that one.... I can't wait for the opportunity to use that... no matter the toxicity level....

 

[Railwoad]

This was on a bus to HS. I was standing and made sure I didn't look behind at the speaker because I probably would have fell down laughing. She was talking about how exciting it was to go to HS now that Disney bought it from MGM and put rides on it. Then she called Tower of Terror "Terror of Tower" and kept on calling it that multiple times. It would have been an honest mistake except she was so arrogant about it which made it funny.

We were waiting for a bus at the Grand Floridian at another point and a little fellow, probably around 5, would wave at the monorail and he would drop 'the' when talking about it so his sentences were like "There go monorail again!" I just thought it was cute.

When Epcot had the 2000 sign and wand, I thought it was a rollercoaster and was really excited to go on it. haha.

 

[tarrbear]

Here's a good one...

While riding Spaceship Earth, there was a 20ish couple in the car sitting behind us. They were intently listening and watching, obviously very into it.

We got to the part with the Egyptions "pounding reeds flat", and this is what I hear:

Narrator: (sorry, this isn't going to be verbatim...it's just from my memory) "This Unknown Egyption, pounding reeds flat, created the first paper. With the invention of paper, Egyptions created the first written communication, and unfortunately, the first taxes".

Rider behind me: "Thanks, a** hole!"

And frankly that comment reminds of something I would probably say haha

But I try to watch my language in WDW : )

On our family's first trip to MK we overheard an upset father tell his children "we're in Disney World, Do you want a spanking?" We said that to each other all trip! What made it an even better family joke is that we don't spank so to hear DD 6 at the time say it made me crackup!

 

[ToddyLu]

DH and I boarded ToT and the young lady next to me says---when the doors open before the drop "Is this the ride that drops you?"....ahhhh....yep. She cussed her boyfriend all the way through the shop. I mean did she just not look up and read the sign before entering the Tower Hotel.

This isn't so much a funny conversation. I took great delight in getting the DDP for my parents in 2008. My Dad was 70 and Mom 64. The look on Dad's face when he could get "all that food" and not have to "pay for it". Of course he knew it was prepaid, but it really had value for them. My Mom didn't have to hear him gripe about cost of stuff....which was the plan all along. To this day he says, "that DDP is the only way to do Disney". We stayed at Pop. Their next trip we have gotten them a SV studio at AKV. Wonder what he will think about that?

Aren't parents precious.

On one trip, we were taking the boat from WL to MK when a girl near me pointed to the Contemporary and asked, "what's that?" Her father replied, "That's Space Mountain" I had to bite my lip to keep from laughing out loud.

Also, the first time my mother entered the Mexico Pavilion in Epcot it was about 12pm in the afternoon. While riding El Rio del Tiempo, my mother loudly said, "I'm so glad we came here at night!" I had to quickly remind her that it was noon. We've never let her forget it.

 

[HARVEYSGIRL]

I checked into the Contempory resort on 12-19 and while I was at the counter and a man came up and asked how to get to universal studios.he then explained how were going to use their Disney tickets to see the park. He got really upset when the cm told him Disney did not own Universal and his tickets were no good there. I was amazed.

it was about 12pm in the afternoon. While riding El Rio del Tiempo, my mother loudly said, "I'm so glad we came here at night!"

Did she stop at the tequilla bar first?

Kind of along the same lines, but it was my own mom who said something funny.

One trip to DHS, myself, my boyfriend (now husband), and my mom and dad all went on RnRC about 5 times in a row because there were no lines. We were like little kids, all giddy, because it was so much fun running out of the ride, and just running back in. It was my BF's first trip, and he thought my parents (in their 50s) were pretty hip for loving such a crazy ride and going on it over and over.

A couple years later we were all at Disney together again, and somehow that story came up. Someone must've mentioned the loops, and my mom to proceeded to say "The RnRC doesn't go upside down! I wouldn't have gone on it if it did! I don't go on roller coasters that go upside down!" Somehow, after going on it all those times, she didn't realize she was going upside down, and now refuses to go on it, claiming it's too scary! Unbelievable!

I LOVE this thread. I always remember hearing stupid stuff but then forgetting about it. Here are four I remember:

1. At the Wilderness Lodge, I overheard a customer asking for a park map to Adventureland. The cast member tried to explain there is no park called Adventureland, just that it's inside the Magic Kingdom. The guy was getting furious, saying things like, "you don't think I know my way around here... we've been to Adventureland three times this week!!" Then he goes, "Oh here it is," and pulled an Epcot park map. He said, "Yeah, see, this is Adventureland. It's the one with the big old golf ball thingy." Poor guy was either very mistaken or just totally confused.

2. We were at Animal Kingdom, one hour before close, in line for Everest. There was this couple in front of me who just would not stop complaining. I mean, everything, down to the crowds, the heat, how tired they were, how they hated Disney and how this is the last trip ever they'll take here, how there are bugs, I mean NOTHING could please them. I honestly think they would have complained if everything was free, they were that kind of people. NOTHING would please them. Finally, the husband said, "Well, at least we get to ride out favorite ride again." His wife agreed and said, "Yeah, let's end it on a good note." Well, suddenly, they had to cancel the ride and roped it off. So they never even got to do that.

3. On Main Street, I overheard a guest ask one of the balloon sellers how all the cast members fit inside the castle. The cast member was like... "what do you mean?" The guest was convinced that every single cast member all lived in the castle and that it was their home!! That was hilarious.

4. This one isn't a stupid remark, but it was hilarious. We were on the way back to the resort form the park, taking the bus ride back. It was a night, so the lights were out. The bus driver decided to play Disney Trivia. He asked us to name all the Disney animated movies that were one-worded titles, such as 'Fantasia, ' 'Aladdin,' etc. We got most of the obvious ones out of the way, and someone shouted 'Shrek!!' The bus driver stopped the bus, pulled over to the side of the road, and turned on all the lights. He then asked 'who said Shrek on a Disney bus?" and acted like that person had to walk the rest of the way. It was so very hilarious. And then, someone else guessed Pirates of the Carribean, which one, isn't animated, and two, isn't a one-worded answer.

Oh, I just thought of another one! A little girl, who was in line for Cinderlla, asked her, "Were you the one who was murdered by the Queen by a poisoned apple?" Cinderella said something like, "No, that was Snow White, and she was saved from love's kiss" or something ... and then the girl replied, "Oh, you're the one who pricked her finger and died, right?" She again said, "no, that was Aurora, and again, she was saved by love's kiss. I'm the one who had the evil stepmother." Finally the girl said, "Gee, you've had it pretty easy, don't you think? The others get poisioned and pricked to death, you just had to mop the floor like I did? Sheesh!"

This has got to be one of the funniest things I have heard in a long time!

Walking past the American pavilion in EPCOT, DH overhear two ladies reading the sign about the American Adventure show.

"Starring Ben Franklin and Mark Twain, I didn't know Mark Twain was still alive?" I guess she thought Benjamin Franklin was alive but wasn't sure about Mark Twain

LOL, I can't believe no one commented on this yet. This one had me rolling!

 

[mickey&minniealways]

Yes, and there are no "hotels" in the World, they are resorts.

I am sorry, that is another one that bugs me too.

And everyone who works there is a cast member no matter what their job is. There is no ride attendants or waiters in the resteraulnts, no lifeguards or bus drivers, no sales clerks. They are all just Cast Members.

My husband and I were entering the Magic Kingdom one time just under the train station. A group of people (maybe 8 teens & adults) ran in front of us towards the area by Roy Disney's statue as some of the characters were out for photos. . . Loudly as they ran, "Goofy!, Goofy! Goofy!" A CM nearby and within our earshot yelled out as loudly, "Pluto!" correcting them enroute. . .to which the cries then became "Pluto!, Pluto!, Pluto!". Quick save, there. A lot of people around us laughed having witnessed the whole drama. . .

We've only done one character meal, Crystal Palace. The first character to come to our table was Tigger, who I enthusiastically greeted with, "Hi POOH!" Worst thing was, I didn't figure out my mistake until he had moved on to the next table and they greeted him in a way that sounded like an imitation of my greeting, but of course they said, "Hi TIGGER!" Light bulb on, face turned red.

On our recent trip my youngest Dd 6 had to use the bathroom quite urgently. I get her set on the potty and she starts singing very loudly, "taking care of business, everyday, taking care of business oh yeah." I almost fell over laughing so hard.

I have to ask, were you there the first two weeks of November? I remember getting a kick out of a little girl in the stall next to me singing as she went to the bathroom.
