What is one of your favorite Disboard questions?

[madthemouse]

As we all know, the Disboard forums can provide some useful information. Some questions over the years have ranged from interesting and funny to absurd and sad. So I thought I would ask, "What questions got your attention"?



For me, one of my favorite, "Is the tissue paper of a better quality at a Deluxe Resort then at a Moderate Resort"? When I recall this question, It always brings me a smile. One question from childhood, (For those of us older enough to remember a real "Penny Candy Store") walking in, reaching in to our pockets, pulling out what little change we have, slapping it down on the counter and asking soundly, "What can I get for this much monies"? I don't think that one has been asked on the Disboards.



We're all looking to be frugal or get the most out of our hard earned money. And the Disboards give us an opportunity to share informative information with one another. How cool was that idea?

Bolding is mine - you obviously don't visit the Budget Boards too often.

My favorite question is always "Has anyone ever been to...", "Has anyone tried...", etc. Nope, you're the only one!

Hands down it was Acepepper's "Childbirth, is is REALLY that hard?" question. Got a lot of folks involved heatedly in that one!!!

 

[JerseyJanice]

My favorite generic Dis questions are:

1. Can we bring and use our refillable mugs on our next trip?

2. Can we smoke on our deluxe room's balcony? (Playing the guitar there is a recent and fun twist on this classic question.)

3. Can I put platform sneakers on my 3 1/2 year old so she'll be tall enough to ride the Tower of Terror?

The absolute most common question, at least in the TPA&S forum, relates to using "additional days" on a pass instead of paying for hopping.

Here is my stock answer:

A base ticket is one major (theme) park per day. You are allowed to re-enter the same park if you leave it on one day, but it can only be used at the one park.

Note that the ticket will state on it either "Not Valid For Park Hopping" or "One Theme Park Per Day". That should be a hint.

If you put the ticket in the turnstile of another park the display on the Guest side of the turnstile will be "ACCESS DENIED". The top line of the display on the Greeter side will give information about the ticket, and the second line of the display will say "CROSSOVER NOT PERMITTED". The turnstile will not unlock.

This is because Disney charges $3.00 per day over four days on a ticket, but charges $52 to allow hopping. It does not make economic sense for Disney to allow this.

If you actually have multiple tickets (more than one physical ticket per person) as opposed to multiple day tickets, you can use these tickets for multiple entries. But it makes absolutely no economic sense as a separate ticket costs a lot more than adding hopping to a ticket.

Or, as I recently told a Guest who was arguing with me about using a different day on the ticket:

The turnstile computer thinks today is Friday. The turnstile computer at the other park also thinks today is Friday. The two turnstile computers talk to each other. If you can convince this turnstile computer that today is not the same Friday as the other computer thinks, it will let you in.

I have many monies

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I need advice on how to hide it from my wife so I can have more monies for myself. Can anyone help with this please?


This guy had me rolling. Illuminati.

Another gem from the same poster:

Children leash

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My story of vacation 2005:

My wife in room getting over sunburn so I stayed up all night and for me that's the first time. Then I sneak in room just as cool as I can and pull back the sheets and the bed all empty except for a note left from some guy named Stone.

My head got all light and the room started spinning, so stepped out side just to get air fresh. Out on a wave was my own darling Keiko and pretty boy with bleach in hair!

Back on the home and everything's normal. Beach blanket bingo comes on the TV. We talk in sleeping and then the next morning. I ask her who's Stone and she says who?

So I think it beach is problem. You know salty smelly air and breezes. Can I buy some leash for adult size like is used for children sized leash? I see leash when we go on Zoo and park and Wall martt. I need stop Keiko from being go to beach.

We like use the leashes for our babies but they be so small they make little yo-yos. Cute. Cute.

So many come to mind:

Refillable Mugs
How many in a room
How to have "relations"
I didn't have the magical vacation and I need to blame someone so I need thoughts and ideas from others

just to name a few.

"What time is the 4 o'clock parade?"

 

[mking624]

"I haven't been since the 80s or 90s...what has changed, new/different, etc?"

 

[Briarmom]

How do you get a dead body smell out of a house?

 

[tink_n_pooh]

I've heard lots of talk about threads that have asked about 'how to have relations' in WDW but never actually seen a thread about it yet

 

[parrothead365]

I like :

breast feeding in public questions

Pool hopping

"What time is the 4 o'clock parade?"

I think it's at 3 .

 

[happygirl]

Tipping thread and Spanking thread are always fun

 

[KristaTX]

I always get a kick out of the oddball threads that seem to come out of nowhere. There was one last week asking what kind of pie makes you sick. I think C. Ann wave must have been craving some blueberry pie but couldn't eat any because blueberries make her sick.

 

[Lisa loves Pooh]

Any question that includes a solicitation for an opinion....

And what makes it great--

somewhere in the thread, the OP then chastises folks for providing an opinion and then commences to convince people that noone has the right to post opinions (they disagree with)--despite the many requotes of the OP that in fact shows that the OP did indeed ask for an opinion.

One of my all-time favorites, a DIS classic "What's the oddest thing you've seen at WDW?"

Canned corn on the steps to Town Hall - ah....good times.

So that's the reference to corn. I was wondering what that was about.

Don't forget the 7 Dwarves getting into a fight, from that same thread!

You're right - it was me.. And yes, I was wishing I could have some blueberry pie..

Sometimes it gets pretty dull around here, so out come the "oddball threads"..

The venting and arguing threads are getting to be a bit much.. Guess it's because I'm in such a good mood, I'd rather talk about oddball or fun things instead..
