Secret Handshake!!!!!!

[icartjetta]

O.K. My DH wants to know if I'll be doing any secret hand shakes with my fellow dis members. I personally don't know of any "secret handshakes" but I would love if we could come up with one. He laughs at how much time I spend on this board, but he does appreciate all the information I have received. And thanks to all for all of your time and knoledge.

Well, I don't know of any secret handshake but I'm know that we definitely speak our our language here with all the abbreviations (though I haven't noticed it as much on the cruise boards as the boards for the parks).

DH came to me just today and asked what "DH" stood for! He was afraid I was corresponding with a bunch of disgruntled housewives and that "D" was not something nice!

Oooh I would love to have a secret handshake! Maybe we could even come up with a club song!

Did I read somewhere on these boards that DIS'ers identify themselves with the lime green Mickey paint samples from Home Depot? Either using them on their backpack IDs, or ticket protectors or in some other fashion?

 

[jordgubben]

That is in fact correct. I have a laminated one hanging from my "disney" pack.

 

[pppiglet]

I'm going to Home Depot!

I think you should do a nice, flamboyant regular handshake followed by a hip-bump

Icartjetta, I can't think of anything other than the lime green mickey heads, the magnetic door signs w/ the mickey heads incorperated in it (you gotta have your DIS sign on name included), or wearing lime green yourself the first day. Sorry, but I would like to say, have a fabulous trip!

 

[icartjetta]

Thanks, could you clarify the magnetic hanging door thingy.

My all time favorite secret handshake is the "HI SIGN"! Anyone remember "The Little Rascals"?? Hand under the chin (palm down, fingers pointing away from your body) wiggle the fingers and say HI SIGN!

The magnetic door "thingy" is a sign thta many DISer's make out of magnetic paper and put on their stateroom door (they are metal) to help decorate the door, make their room easier to find and possibly designate them as DISers.

My DH was worried that I might be corresponding with a bunch of freaks until he met a few of my DIS friends last week on board the Magic. He now says for me to tell them "Hi" when I am writing!

I've met some great people on these boards!

Here's the door sign I made for our cruise.

I also made a lime green Mickey icon (HD paint chip) magnet with my DIS user name on it.

DIS also sells a lime green water wallet that you can use and when you are out on the islands other DIS'ers will know you.

It's funny that you posted about the "Secret Handshake". My DH was sure that I had a bunch of imaginary friends. On our first cruise we didn't meet any DIS'ers, so then he was pretty sure that I had some "issues" to deal with about my imaginary friends.

On our second cruise, a DIS'er got up on stage for WWTBAM (can you believe she missed a question about what Cinderella lost that the footman brought to her house?), and she mentioned the DIS. I spoke to her afterward, so then DH decided that maybe you all are real people. On our next cruise, we were supposed to meet up with someone from the DIS, but we played phone tag for four nights, so he wasn't too sure again. On our last cruise, I wasn't wearing my Mickey head, I wasn't wearing ANYTHING green, in fact, and someone came up to me in line and greeted me by name. It was quite a while before DH figured that one out (she recognized us from pictures posted...DH has a rather distinctive red beard).

Now, he's never read these boards, never had any interest at all. Last night, he just happened to look over my shoulder while I was reading, and suddenly (after 3 1/2 years )figured out what was going on.

A secret handshake is just what we need to throw him off the trail again!

Maybe two fist on the side of the head for Mickey ears

Ooops, duplicate post!

I love it Luckey!!!!

I also have a dh that thinks I belong to some weird cult. I keep saying, "My friends on the board said......."
