Something you never heard of until you read the DIS

[FireDancer]

Until yesterday, I never realized that there were people who were afraid of holes. After reading about this on the Dis, I spent the rest of the day noticing things that would surely freak out trypophobics. Word of warning if any of you are reading this: Never, ever play snood deluxe - or if you do, be darn sure you don't lose!

That was a new one to me too. How would a trypophobic reproduce?

Sedated, with their eyes clamped shut?

People dont use hotel drawers.....really?

I never knew that some people would come on a message board and ask for advice about having sex on vacation in the bed next to your sleeping children. Some things are best left private. We dont need to know that you are doing the banana dance 3 feet away from Little Suzy.

I never knew that there are parents out there who would say its okay for their child to pick and eat their boogers and get mad at the teacher when she tried to correct this behavior.

No kidding because then the kids in the next bed will tell Grandma at Christmas time they saw their dad laying naked on their mom when they were in the hotel room on vacation when mom and dad had no idea they were watching (said my then 6 year old nephew who then had a surprise new little brother about 9 months later).

I didn't know so many people WASH their clothes before wearing them!!! That was a NEW one on me!!

Have you ever looked around a store and seen some of the people trying on the clothes you may want to buy??? Scary enough for me....That shirt was probably on the floor about 10 minutes ago with someone's icky feet stadning on it... Or maybe it fell of the hanger and layed on the bed of a DIRTY freight truck during delivery.... Also, there are TONS of chemicals in clothes.....
Work retail for a bit, you'll wash EVERYTHING before putting it on your body!

I don't use hotel drawers. I live out of my suitcase when I'm on vacation.

That's funny because I thought everyone did wash clothes before wearing them. I wash everything, clothes, towels, sheets.

Nah, this east coast Italian-German-American says sauce. So did my Italian-American grandma. So do all my Italian-American aunts, uncles, cousins...well, you get the picture. I never heard it called gravy until I read it on the Dis.

I never heard anyone call it gravy either until the DIS. I actually live in Italy and they do NOT call it gravy. It is sauce.

I had never heard of the huge WDW turkey legs referred to as emu, nor had I heard of anyone taking a can of corn into the parks to eat as a snack.

I never knew toilet paper could be such an issue while on vacation.

 

[kaytieeldr]

"How else would I be able to expreience different park restaurants without it?"

I do, as well - not because I have an aversion to hotel dresser drawers; simply because I'm too lazy to unpack!

I agree that the red stuff we put on pasta is SAUCE and not gravy. My inlaws were the first people I ever heard of calling sauce by the name of gravy and at first I thought they were weird, then said "well they are Italian so maybe they call it gravy in Italy" but nope, I think its really a Jersey thing

I'm from NJ, and people call it gravy (unless there is no meat in it - then it's sauce), and I've heard old Italian women with very heavy Italian accents call it gravy, so I'm guessing they call it that in certain regions of Italy. Restaurants here even have "Sunday Gravy" on the menu - meatballs, sausage, pork, braciolle, in tomato sauce.

This, and that damn Diva cup. Also that people act like pool hoppng is a cardinal sin.

That some people get seriously bent over someone with a non-visable handicap uses a handicap bathroom.

That people will dress their small children in ridiculously over the top outfits for every meal, ride or parade at Disney.

I didn't know that it would be better to have a gun on a crowded bus then run for your life when needed.

 

[PADISFAM]

& insert puky smilie on the goat thing -- diva & family cloth were bad enough!

[PADISFAM]

They're... what?

it's ok -- I can show you a picture of a child over the age of 5 in stroller if it will make you feel better

That people don't walk barefoot in hotels

The big one for me was how many people do not want/liked to be surprised or get mad at their DH for doing so.

But the best is there have been so many things that have tried or not tried because of some great advice here.

And how a stranger can cause me spit drinks on my screen. just when I needed it.

Ladies-just reporting in. I stayed at a hotel last night. I used the light switches, the remote control, the toilet and the closet. I did not remove the comforter when I arrived, I did not take Lysol, and I used the towels provided. I even drank from the glasses in the room. I am OKAY. Do not dial 911. I made it.

I used to make coffee in my room (hotel/resorts) in coffee pots, till I read on the DIS that some women use the coffee pots to wash their panty hose in them. I washed them before I used them, but I haven't looked at those coffee pots the same since reading that.

People do WHAT???!!! Why don't they wash them in... oh I don't know...the sink??!!
