This is very funny - I love it OP!

(And to those commenting on the OP advertising their own page - it's just a link to a Facebook fan page they created - there is no advertising or personal website involved.

I don't know what's funnier: the whole idea of OWDW, or that not everyone understands the intent behind this.

Love it.

Nice.

DEFINETLY the part that people are taking it seriously and/or find it not funny... duuuude.... sit down, have a beer, and laugh once in awhile

Thank you OP. I have recommended your FB page to all my friends

 

[OccupyDisneyWorld]

Thanks for all the love everyone.... Mickey's entire town was bulldozed and he was evicted against his will by the elite 1 percent just to make room for a circus.... With your likes and comments, someday we may be able to prevent further travesties like this.

I'd personally love to see more hippies inside WDW.

I found and Liked your FB a few days ago....so did my DH... and now here you are on the DIS!! We are getting a TOTAL kick out of it!!

 

[Tori 2001]

Funny. I can actually see this happening on a small scale - protesting the money Disney makes or the money people spend on the parks. However, they would have to be able to afford to get in there in order to protest ; ]

So the real question is... is Mickey the 1%?

I pass the Occupy Wall Street crowd every night on my way home, I shake my head and think... "Get a job! Or at least get out of the road so I can get home from mine!" LOL But Occupy Disney.... now that's a protest I can wrap my head around! I'm down for it!

Look out Mickey, we're all moving in!!

 

[FlightlessDuck]

Wow, it took 5 whole pages. I'm glad nobody started an over/under bet, I would have lost.

be thankful you have a job....(and can afford to join a protest in Disney ) many cannot find a job or have lost one and cannot find another..... My DD graduated college with her BA in communications in May and is still waiting tables... not what I thought she would be doing at this point. She was going to go for her Masters, but right now, money is just too tight for her. Why should she get into debt to come out and continue to wait tables..She is also a certified Paralegal and cannot find anything in that field. She has moved from where we live, to CA, to HA and still looking for work. She is now considering joining the Navy..at the age of 23....

I do think that is why you see some "students" there.. that is their thoughts.... they spend so much on schooling to come out and not find employment If you notice, many are not that "old"... Then you see older people who have had good jobs to have only lost them to downsizing.. and cannot find another in this economy... again, be thankful you have a job to come home from.. and this is not meant to be nasty... but to open your eyes that many cannot find one to where they can support their family or pay off their college loans...

The Yeti is back, according to a poster about a week ago.

I would protest for the return of the original Journey into Imagination ride.

No Yeti,,,trust me

no he is with the 99%, it is those that run the company who are the 1%

Thanks for the laughs OP. It's so nice to finally see protests from someone other than those Mad Hatter Tea Party people. I couldn't take seeing one more "Hands Off My Free Dining" or "Fastpasses Are Socialism" sign.

 

[stargazertechie]

Seriously! I am so sick of hearing about Occupy. Go occupy somebody elses board.

Moderators -- please close this thread for advertising and having nothing to do with Disney!

I just spit cider all over my keyboard. Did you even READ the post? This is satire, and has EVERYTHING to do with Disney.

 

[JoshuaShaw]

There are two types of people reading this thread: those who don't think it's funny and those who know what satire is.

Well played.

 

[cmurray234]

OP - That was my first good laugh of the morning! Thanks.

To those of you turning this into a debate about the merits of Occupy Wall Street -- take it elsewhere, please. There are plenty of places to hash out your differences. You'll get this very funny thread locked if you start politicking on here.


Back on topic -- Mickey would NEVER EVER be part of the 1% *horrified*!
