What are your Disney inside jokes?

[Lady_Gracey999]

Everybody has funny stories of things that happened on their trips that they will never forget (or live down in some cases). Here's your place to share. I know it might be hard to explain these on here, but let's give it a try! I'll start...

So here the thing: my friends and I always get so annoyed by people who stop in the middle of the pavement at the parks to stare off into space. I'm not talking about people who are taking pictures. I'm talking about people who for no obvious reason just decide to stop themseves (and sometimes entire clan) with no warning in the middle of a major highway. Annoying right?


So to get some fun out of this irritation, we like to walk in front of each other every now and then and do a full stop while staring off into space. Doesn't seem that funny to you? That's why it's an inside joke. Next trip take notice of these people and pretty soon you'll be giggling too.

I have others, but now it's up to you! So share!

Ok I'm going to tell another one since you guys aren't responding...here goes.

My first evening at WDW my friends and I ate at San Angel Inn in EPCOT (bad experience btw). Shortly after leaving the restraunt my friend's DH got really bad stomach cramps and had to use the restroom. I should say at this point that we had decided to take a walk around WS before heading back to the resort to go to bed. Everything was pretty much closed. It was LATE.

Well anyways...friend's DH (We'll call him "Sam" for discussion purposes.) was sick in a BAD way. He was stopping at just about every restroom we encountered for extended periods of time. I was walking behind said friends and stopping to take pics along the way. I would usually catch up as he made a stop. We eventually made it to England, and while friend and I were taking phone booth pics Sam headed to RR. After taking the pic friend turned to me and said, "OMG, I think Sam just went into the ladies room." I just brushed her off and tried to reassure her that he would never do that. He's not that clueless.

Guess what? I was wrong. After about 10 minutes went by friend started freaking out b/c he hadn't come out of the men's yet. I told her that there was an easy way to figure this out, we could just walk in and check the feet under the stalls. We slide in as nonchalantly as possible (there were some women in there) and glanced towards the floor. There he was. Not in a far-down stall, the SECOND stall from the entrance. We we floored to say the least. I was laughing my head off and friend was about to burst into tears.

I could regal you with the rest of this story, how we got him out, what happened while he was in there, but I'll wait for you to ask.

So ask...

Our inside joke is simply the line "Where's Canada?".

My aunt had gone off on her own one day at Epcot. When we meet up with her she seemed lost. She asked my cousin "where's Canada" as she was trying to get to the World Showcase Canada area. Somehow she could not find Canada on the map. However when my cousin looked at the map he noticed it was German. On the map Canada started with a K instead of a C.

We have two inside jokes from WDW trips....

The first stems from an.....overindulgence.......at Mickey's Backyard BBQ. I had quite a few too many of the free drinks, and way too much fun, and had to apologize to everyone in our group the next day. (And if you were on the boat from FW that stopped to watch the fireworks that night, and had to listen to our group sing for an hour, I apologize to you as well)

Everyone who was with us that night now refers to tying one on as "pulling a Mickey." (If you stop yourself before crossing the line, and just get fuzzy, you've pulled a Minnie )


The other joke comes from last year when all the mommies and daughters in our group did BBB together. The daughters were adorable, the mommies, not so much. We looked very, well, trashy. However, it happened to be Jersey week at the Mouse, and I swear, the ladies from NJ thought we were gorgeous. So many came up to us to exclaim over our do's and our sparkles. And to our NC ears, it sounded like they were saying: "Oh, my GAWD, you're so SPAAA KLEE!"

So now whenever we notice anything shiny or bright about each other, we all put on our best Jersey accents and comment on the Spaaklee - ness. (And more apologies, here, if I've offended anyone from up North)

I can picture myself doing that and I love it.

Oh, my GAWD, you're so SPAAA KLEE!"

I have been to NJ and I can so picture this!!

Oh this is such a good thread and brings back some great memories from my last trip to the World in April.

We were going on Haunted Mansion and there was a family in front of us and well the line was not long at all, but they had NEVER been to Disney before and it seems like they had just gotten here. So we were stopped right by the turnstiles and well the kids were climbing all over them and yelling and burping. It didn't bother me really b/c the parents just were too into themselves to mind. Finally a cast member came over and asked them to not climb on them OR ELSE...in character of course. Well the parents started complainging etc. But then they started asking out loud.....

"Is this a ride?"

I looked at my best friend and we tried so hard not to laugh!!

Ummm did you do any research? You get in line for something and have no idea what it is?

Just as I was about to tell them it was a ride, one of the wives spoke up and she said....

"Oh God, I hope its not that fast, my hair cannot be ruined. If it does then we are going back to the hotel!"

So pretty much the rest of our vacation, whenever we felt the need we said..."Is this a ride" and to this day it cracks us up!!

"Is this a ride?" Maybe you should have told them no and then the line would be shorter!

My wife and I have an inside joke about the Glaskunst shop at the Germany pavilion in Epcot...but this is a family board...so we won't go there...

 

[SamRoc]

My daughter and I have an inside joke that happened to us at Disney. We were standing right in front of the castle and a very excited woman ran up to us and said "Wheres the Castle Wheres the Castle???!!!" She was running around in circles. My dd and i were hysterical. I pointed up and told her its that huge white thing right there!
We couldnt stop laughing. Her friends started laughing too, it was her first time there and she REALLY wanted to see the Castle! guess she found it!
Now everytime my dd and i go to WDW we always look at eachother and say "Wheres the Castle!?!???!??

We have a few...

1. One year, my high school BFF came with us to WDW for spring break. While we were walking through the crowd, we overhead a man (holding an umbrella) say, "If these people don't watch it, I'm going to give someone an umbrella enema!" Obviously, this guy was over the crowds. However, we thought his comment was hysterical. Now, whenever my BFF is annoyed with someone she says, "They better watch out, or they are going to get an umbrella enema!"
   
2. I absolutely adore TTA. My favorite line is whenever they say, "Now approaching [fill in the blank]." DH is not a Disney fan, so I will use this whenever we're driving up to something and I feel like annoying him. I think it's great, and he just shakes his head.
   
3. While we were in WDW, I had a rather unfortunate accident with the sneezeguard on the toppings bar at the Liberty Inn. I didn't see the overhang above the bar, and when I leaned over to grab some tomatoes I slammed my head into it really hard. I swear I saw stars! So, whenever I'm around a toppings bar or eating a tomato my family tells me to exercise extreme caution - they don't want anymore head injuries.

I went to Disney as an junior high kid with my Girl Scouts troop. We all split up but another group came back saying this comment they overheard about the Swiss Family Robinson tree - "That's not a ride, that's a tree trunk" (with accent that we all mimic). We'll see if others think it's funny or just our troop. To this day that still gets me smiling.

Ours has to do with Monster's Inc. Laugh Floor

When we went there the first time there was a girl in a Cinderella outfit interacting with Morty Wasowski (Mike's nephew) and he asked her what she wanted to be when she grew up. She replied "A princess". And then he asked her "Do you know what I want to be when I grow up?" She got that look on her face that kids get when they are thinking really hard about something and she very seriously replied "A doggie?" The monster on screen got this blank look and said "Well, I was thinking about being a doggie" Everyone busted out laughing! It was hilarious if you were there. So now me and DH will randomly ask each other "Do you know what I want to be when I grow up?"

We also like to randomly quote lines from the Top 7. Unless you're a Disney visitor, you won't get it!

One night we were riding back on the bus from the Magic Kingdom to ASMu. It was after park closing, so everyone was pleasantly tired, kids were asleep on their parents' shoulders, etc. The bus was pretty quiet. A little girl and her mom were across from us. The girl, who looked to be about 6, leaned up against her mom and said in a dreamy voice....

"Oh, mom...isn't it all just so *wonderful*?"

It brought tears to my eyes...and now whenever we like something, we say, "Oh _____________, isn't it all just so *wonderful*?"

One day we were walking towards Test Track. An Asian lady was practically dragging her child along going the opposite direction. She was saying to him "NO! NO ice cream! Ice cream SIX DOLLAR!" That was funny by itself, but it is made funnier by the fact that I have never been able to find $6 ice cream. Maybe she meant $6 for two? Anyway, we frequently say that to each other.

DS12 likes to imitate the guy on the Safari ride. He will tell us "Watch out for POH-chahs (poachers)!" He is a goofball.

On our trip this past July, we happened to catch a streetmosphere performance featuring The Mayor of Hollywood and his nephew Ready Freddy Fiddlesticks.
Throughout the entire performance, the Mayor repeated "Pick up your baaaaaaaaaaags and get in the caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahr!" at least a dozen times, which DS thought was HILARIOUS.

Now, whenever he gets ready for school and he's taking a bit too long, I say, "Pick up your baaaaaaaaaaag and get in the caaaaaaaaaaaaahr."

We have a couple

On our honeymoon we were eating at one of the sit downs in the Magic Kingdom (the one that overlooks Small World) and a mom was trying to get a picture of her son in front of the window and he was having none of it. Crying and crying. My DH leans over and whispers to me "But Mommy...you're stealing my soul!" so now when we see parents taking pictures of crying kids we say "you're stealing my soul!"

Then one time we were in the front of the monorail with another couple and I kid you not this guy asks the monorail driver "Do you ever hit any deer up here?" so that's our monorail line.

Then for some reason whenever we are waiting for a bus, our whole family always says "We need more monkeys! That's the whole barrel" and we laugh and laugh

Wierd Al Yankovich has a song to the tune of "Riding Dirty" called White and Nerdy". The opening line is "I like to roll on my segway.....they all think I'm white and nerdy". Now when we go to Epcot I have to go to the pavillion where I can try out riding a segway so my daughter and I can sing that song and have a good laugh.

When our DD was almost 4 we took a trip to Disney that has left us with some great family memories. The best, by far, has got to be riding the monorail with a guy with a suspicious tooth to tattoo ratio. You know how the monorail will stop and wait at times for no obvious reason? This guy next to us was absolutely hysterical that our DD had her fingertips on the door. Not leaning into it or anything like that, just fingertips. He kept yelling at DH "She's touchin thaaaat doooor!" Like a 4 yo barely touching the door was the reason the entire monorail was shut down. So from then on when we are being silly, someone always yells out "she's touching that door"

We also have fond memories of the bird (one of thousands it seemed)that pooped in Mom's (me) expen$ive fruit salad at Downtown Disney before she even got the first bite!
