But can’t help it, society is getting worse. By all means none of the below mentioned gripes caused me not to complain or to have a bad trip.
Just another trip that dumb things people do/did this round. I’m sure you’ve heard them all before but why won't people act civilly
The me me me world is getting worse.

You’ve all experienced this stuff right, it’s really not just me…Think of this as a psychological check for myself. If this has happened and people feel it’s also getting worse then I will feel better knowing it wasn’t just me witnessing this stuff
Here goes:
1. If there is a huge line waiting to board a bus at your resort don’t think you can just cut in
and jump right on when the bus comes. (there’s a special place for these people)

2. Put the darn cell phones away. It seems that no one enjoys being at Disney anymore because
they sit on their cell phones.

3. Make sure your whole family cuts me off when walking. Because just you cutting me off just wouldn’t be complete.

4. It used to be a good idea to give up your bus seat for an elderly, child or disabled person. Not anymore.
Good job Society. There is also a special place for you too.

5. Go ahead and try to shove your kids to the England/France Railing to view Illuminations. I’ll make sure they don’t stay long, which I accomplished. IF your parents simply asked me if it was ok to do so I would have kindly obliged.
I didn’t sit here for 50 minutes for nothing you know.
It was hilarious to hear the parents coaching their young up to the railing, gave me a chance to prep my space taking tactics. ALL YOU HAD TO DO WAS ASK!!

6. If they say move all the way over to the end of the row, I think they mean it.

7. Scooters! Please keep running me down, no really please do, don’t let me get in your way. (there’s a special place for you too).

8. A serious epidemic: Watch where you are walking. I swear that the next trip I take, I will NOT pay extra attention and if you walk into me I will not apologize.
9. Seriously, We have to stand 10 feet apart on a bus? I am standing on the bus, more people are trying to get on the bus that have been waiting forever as I have so I try to move back as far as I can but idiots seem to think that it is mandatory to to keep a nice large distance between eachother….They seem to ferget that others are trying to get on …Oh, I fergot, it’s a me me me world, As long as I got on who cares about anyone else.

Really?
 
As i said, I had a fun as heck trip, you missed the point completely.
thats fine though, Should have thought twice about writing that...
But thanks, you just confirmed that its a me me me world and this does happen.
Feel better now, thats all it took, cool!

I hope it was your kids i kicked out of the Illuminations space.

Wow..........someone lives an unhappy life...
 

oops...I meant not to complain as to disney.....like a formal complaint that many do....

No sorry I don't have any kids, I am a 25 year old. I would never let my children stand in front of someone that was already there. Im glad you had a good trip and didn't like your observations get in the way.

Disney is just as much for adults as it is for children so I agree on some of the things you said, it just came across very bitter.
 
What I'm most confused about is how other people using their cellphones affects you...? I know I plan on using mine to send my friends and family quick photos and texts while inside the parks... I'm not sure how it keeps me from enjoying myself, either.

Not the OP, but what I think he/she was referring to is the fact that you constantly see people on the phone/texting. It seems like he/she is pointing out the fact that people aren't even enjoying things around them because they are always on their phones. I can't tell you how many teenagers/young adults we saw not interacting with their families at dinner/on rides/at shows/etc. because they were on their phones. One girl was inside a Japan building yelling at her mom because she couldn't text back her boyfriend (she had lost her signal). I think that is just a sign of our times and of course it had no affect on our vacation. It is just a shame that more people can't enjoy the wonderful things around them!
 
this is exactly what I meant. Everyone is too busy chatting and texting
and are too busy looking down that the whole magical experiences
and disney surroundings are being lost to a thing called a cell phone. its sad.

It doesnt affect me at all what so ever. It only bothers me in that these teens mostly, are just too busy and not taking in what disney has to offer.
I dont care if they arent interested in Disney and are more interested in texting it just reinforces my ldeals that the cell phone stays at the room and I know I dont need mine.

Actually I felt bad saying what I said to you but my comments did come across bitter and what I thought you said was bitter.
Good to hear that you would never let them do that, I actually encourage it happening but only if the parent has enough courtesy to just ask, I am more than happy to let them come up to the front, but when a parent encourages bad behavior to their kids they do not deservce the courtesy from me.
If you are courteous to just as I will return the courtesy. Its not that hard of a concept, but this friggin world is terrible now.
Oh and as a making amends for the kids I kicked out of my spot,
The next day I picked out what seemed to be a nice child and gave them
a pin that i accidently purchased doubles of this trip.
I am honestly a kind mannered person and when bad things like that happen to me its in nature to defend myself.
So ya, I had an awesome time and none of this got in the way of that and for my bad deed I made a good deed out of it.
