Vote for you biggest WDW Pet Peeve!

[deadheadbelle]

Ok folks, what really gets your goat at WDW??? I've listed 11 things, some bug me, some are things I've seen around the DIS that really bug other people. Please feel free to select "other" & add your own peeve if I've neglected to include yours.

Have fun!

I voted for the Stoppers,But they all annoy me.

Well I voted for the walkers--I hate it even when I see people walking in front of other families trying to take pics. I equally hate the stopper and blockers But the most vile offender was not to be listed. Its like the Pretenders with a different angle. See I am a stroller pusher. Im aware of people around and I do not try to run over others but there is quite a few people who will just walk right in front of the stroller So I can either stop every 5 seconds to let everyone walk in front of me and around me because I have a stroller or I can keep moving and maybe hit a couple

 

[deadheadbelle]

Shoot! I meant to allow everyone to vote for "all that apply", but I forgot. So you can only choose 1. Oh well, I chose the "BOARDERS & SQUEEZERS". I mean, do they think it's the last tram of the day?

 

[Bichon Barb]

Hi DHB. I voted for strollers (or was it pushers? ). Since my kids are out of strollers now, I think they should be illegal at WDW!

 

[auntpolly]

LOL that was a hard choice. I gotta admit that after a hot day in August at the MK I'm probably one of those "Stinkers"!!!

 

[EsmeraldaX]

I picked "Other".

My biggest gripe is people who drag young babies out in the blazing FL sun and the babies have no hats on, and who knows if they have sunscreen.

Saw a woman in Feb when it was 78 degress out holding a newborn in her arm and smoking. The smoke was blowing into the babies little face and the babies face and head were turning red because of the sun. It was awful. That poor baby.

Also, people who smoke in line, or make snide comments about special needs people who go to the special lines.

Heard a teen last time say they "wished they could get sick so they could get front of the line priveledges" and rather than correct her and tell her what a terrible thing that was to even joke about - the mother just agreed and said it "isn't right that they don't have to wait in line like everyone else".

I corrected them and explained that the reason people in wheelchairs go to another entrance is because there were only a few ride vehicles that could accomodate and they actually may end up waiting longer than they were.

I just could not believe the mother did not say anything to her daughter for saying she wished she'd get sick.

I'm also not a fan of people who wear shirts with swear words or sexually explicit pictures to the parks.

Last time , a guy wearing a shirt that said f word you on it was actually chosen by a CM at Universal to be one of the audience participants in Twister. (I think it was Twister)

That's Ok deadheadbelle. This way you HAVE to pick one.

There are so many of these things that bother me that it was difficult to choose. But I too have the biggest issue with the stoppers and blockers.

HELLLOOOO! Maybe you don't know what your next move is gonna be, so you pause. BUT, I know where I'm goin' so please don't stop right in front of me. Kindly step aside and let the rest of us continue on.

The parents-who-don't-seem-to-know-their-child-is-annoying came in thisclose for second place.

Fun poll! Good job deadheadbelle!<a href='http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb008' target='_blank'><img src='http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/4/4_1_201.gif' border=0></a>

The one that bothered me the least, btw, is the muggers.

 

[Figment22]

I voted for the SITTERS. It drives me crazy when they just stop in the middle of the row and then everyone has to step over them. I've sometimes taken the advice from the Unofficial Guide and make sure to step ON their feet.

BTW, you could also include FLASHERS. No, not THAT kind I mean the people who insist on taking photos even after the "No flash photography" speech. They make me mad

 

[Annette_VA]

Had a hard time choosing between "sitters" and "stoppers"! Both drive me bonkers. Ended up choosing "stoppers" - they're more dangerous.

 

[llebrekniT]

Woohoo! I think I picked the winner!<a href='http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb008' target='_blank'><img src='http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/5/5_1_122.gif' border=0></a>

Go stoppers and blockers!<a href='http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb008' target='_blank'><img src='http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/18/18_1_204.gif' border=0></a>

SITTERS are particularly annoying because the CM or recording usually says "PLEASE MOVE ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE END" about 50 times!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks a lot DHB, now my blood pressure is up!

 

[wishuponastarforever]

I voted other

How about the runners - the people who just have to beat you there? They generallyturn into the sitters too!!!

Wah wah wah. It's about time something got you going!

 

[disney4us2002]

I think below others you need to add "all of the above"!!

Okay, just kidding. I try not to get too upset because it's Disney and I'm on vacation at least.

I ended up going with stroller pushers. No offense to those here who are conscientious of those around them, but I have been knocked to the ground and had my foot run over so many times by stroller zig zagging! Drives me batty.

Probably my number two choice would be SWEARING but that wasn't a choice. How awful to overhear a string of vulgarities while surrounded by children!!!!!! I've asked my husband to stop doing it............. j/k. I'm feeling punchy today from lack of sleep I think.

I chose the pretenders, but the sitters were a hair beind.

My DH hates the sitters. If he encounters a sitter, he steps on thier toes as he steps over them.

At 6'3" and 300+ lbs., they know they've been stepped on. I must admit, I am not too careful when climbing over a sitter to get to the end of the row either!

 

[2MuchOhana]

Well, I would chose all of the above mentioned; but since I can only vote for one thing I am going to say other. My pet peeve is the pushers, shovers and tramplers. They bulldoze anyone down just to get closer to the front of the line.

We always do our best to stay together as a group; but we don't like being rude or agressive to do it. My dad is a little slower than the rest of us and we keep that in mind; and go according to his pace. But it really gets to me when people push him aside and mow him over to get ahead of us in line. After that happens the rest of step aside to let others through until he can catch up. I don't mind let nice people get in front us; but those pushy rude people make me mad!

 

[Dan Murphy]

Voted other. Trash mouths, people talking as if they are on the wharves, talking to sailors (not that it is right there either), but then again, everyday language is pretty sad today. And smokers, blatantly abusing WDW smoking guidelines, even after being made aware of them. There are places set aside for that.

 

[deadheadbelle]

Smokers, cussers, pushers & runners. Shoot. forgot those. Good ones.

 

[IloveWINNIEthePOOH]

STROLLER PUSHERS.... you have a stroller cause you need it, and I know you can't see my ankles right in front of it, but please, if you do bump into me, or the occasional "ram" into me, the least you could do is apologize, and not stand there like it is my fault!

The reason I didn't pick any other?? I find myself doing some of the stuff mentioned!! Sorry!!!!!

I also really REALLY dislike people who don't smoke in designated areas!! They put them there so I don'thave to choke on the air they pollute. Please, use them!!!


Please, no flames, just voicing my opinion!!!!
