Dave at www.**************.net had a funny comment today. He said the two things Disney fans hate most are: 1. Things Disney does. 2. Things Disney does not do.
I had a big laugh at that.
there are just some things on the board that most of the people cant stand, which do you think is the most hated
Not hated... just don't like that description...
but I'd like to add
Frustrated with...
The "experts" of Everything Disney ..
No one knows Exactly what Disney will say/do about any given situation...even Disney sprinkles some pixie dust sometimes...
Just say'n..
Ahh, the infamous "canned corn" thread. It's just some dumb thing that happened on the boards a while back (I wasn't even there to witness it but have heard tales). It has something to do with someone in one of the parks opening up a can of corn and eating it with a spoon. It was a way to save on dining costs or something. The thread apparently got pretty intense and is still mentioned around these parts.
Here's one we can all agree on: posters who start threads that have us wondering how things turn out, and who never come back to follow up. Case in point: brown paper bag in the window.
It was a thread about the craziest thing you've seen in the parks. It's probably the funniest thread I have ever read here, up there with the most embarrassing thing that happened to you at the parks. Among the different posts was one where someone saw a family sitting on the steps of City Hall eating corn right out of the can with their spoons - whole family. Another one was where Snow White and some of the dwarfs were out meeting people, someone got fresh with Snow White, and the Dwarf brawl ensued. He described the dwarfs trying to hit the guy with their stationary arms (this was a long time ago), and the images were so funny.... anyway, many of us ended up with sore sides from laughing so much.
If I recall, the dwarf story is from @King Schultz <3

Okay, here's the dwarf brawl story.
This was my first contribution to the classic "What's the strangest thing you've seen at WDW" thread. I'm going by memory, but it's a true story and my post went something like this:
"My strangest thing actually happened at Disneyland back in 1975. I was born and raised in Long Beach, but we were selling our house and moving to the Midwest, so my mom dropped my younger brother and I off at Disneyland one summer morning for one last visit before we left.
I was 15, he was 14, and we had a blast running around the park, hitting rides, eating, hanging at the old Magic Store, playing the old arcade games. . .
We were supposed to meet our folks out front at 6pm, so around a quarter 'til we headed that way. We got to the area between the train station and ticket booths were you could see the pick-up/drop-off area and didn't see our car, so we hung out there waiting om them.
In the area, Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs were interacting with guests coming and going and we were watching that, when a group of 5 or 6 wanna-be gang-bangers (around our age) pushed their way through the crowd and one said something to the young lady playing Snow White. I couldn't hear what was said, but Snow said something back, and the kid reached out and grabbed her in a inappropriate place.
Next thing I knew, one of the Dwarfs slammed his plastic head into the kid and knocked him back, Snow screamed, and the brawl was on!
The gang-bangers were winging punches at the Dwarfs, but their big plastic heads absorbed the blows; the Dwarfs were winging punches at the gang-bangers, but their floppy arms weren't doing much damage either. Pretty soon Dwarfs and gang-bangers were rolling around fighting, with about a hundred people standing around in stunned silence.
Just as security arrived, I noticed my folks pull up and my brother and I got the heck out of there. On the way home we told them about what would be called "The Great Dwarf Brawl of '75" to this day.
We moved soon after."

What is pool-hopping? My interwebs says that it is the art of hopping into as many neighbourhood swimming pools as possible in quick succession. Somehow, I doubt this is what the DIS means by it?

I think you meant "The Dinning Plan."
