What is your Disney shameful secret?

[sunny_stace]

Every time I am in the World, I expect Prince Charming to show up and sweep me off my feet...
...maybe one day.

I have this one too...Cinderella Sydrome is what my mum calls it!

I love this thread, although 'shameful' conjures up images of strangely sexy disney underwear and such. I pretty much just go for the most comfortable I can get while park hopping... ANYWAY...

HILARIOUS!!!! My drink dribbled down my chin!!!

 

[lhuggi1]

I hate the fact that they took out Alien Encounter which scared the crap outta me and made me scream out loud while my brother and dad laughed at me
and put in lame old Stitch's Great Escape ....( but i do love stitchy)

 

[MHSweb79]

I refuse to ride space mountain because I have a fear of being decapitated by a steel beam without notice or reason.

As opposed to being decapitated by a steel beam WITH notice or reason...

Hi I'm a newbie!

My most shameful Disney secrets?

1. I don't let my Dad go to Epcot. I don't like it so we haven't been back since 1999.

2. I only go on the kiddie rides because I have a phobia of fast scary rides. I nearly had a heart attack on Pirates of the Carribean!

3. I didn't have my picture taken with Mickey until my 12th trip to WDW. I looked back to find my pictures with Mickey from my first trip in 1994 and couldn't find any - I was only 10! My parents were bad disney people !

4. I have never ate a dole whip.

5. I was too scared to go and meet Jack Sparrow at the P&P Party because I fancy him soooooooo much and I thought I would actually faint if I got to meet him

6. Just knowing that they didn't have the BBB when I was little makes me feel really upset!

7. Wishes is so beautiful is makes me cry

 

[SoScary'09]

1. I've been to WDW many many times as a kid since my grandparents used to live down there, but I still can't remember how many times it was!~

2. I've never been on: Splash Mountain, Space Mountain, or Tower of Terror because I'm such a big chicken....and yet I'm crazy over R n' Rollercoaster?! (I know. What is that all about?)

3. I can't wait to get to Epcot just so I can shop in Japan.

4. Actually, I can't wait to get to WDW just so I can shop period.

5. I probably won't ever stay at a value or moderate resort. If I'm gonna go, I'm always gonna go all out Perhaps that's more excess than snobbery on my part.

Well I really only like to go to WDW about once every 5 to 6 years because I get bored. I don't read the same book more than once or watch the same movie over and over either. (no flames please)

Haven't stayed on property until this trip (saturday) and could care less about staying on or on property. Maybe my thoughts will be changed after this trip.

I HATE strollers, heelies and whiny kids with parents who push them too hard.

I hate people who practically have sex in public, in the park, then feign lack of understanding of english when they are told to stop.

I love turkey legs and plan to eat my way through the world this time.

 

[MHSweb79]

I don't like Dole Whips.

 

[Trinka]

Oooh! This is terrific! Here goes...

-My GF and I actually count "meltdowns" (that point that you just lose it from stress, exhaustion, whatever), both parents and kids, when we are in the parks. This is very shameful, especially since we both have our own!!

-I do not like DHS. The only reason I go is to ride TOT over and over and over again.

-I don't feel very "magical" when people ram into me with their oversized bags, elbows, or stollers, nor do I appreciate when someone stops dead in front of me, making me run into them. Arggghhhh!!!

-I actually cry with joy when we make the decision to go to WDW. Every time.

-I have "When You Wish Upon a Star" as my ringtone and my heart flutters when my cell phone rings.

-This is a good thing- I really, really want to be a CM someday!

 

[Shelton123]

People who fake their lack of english vocabulary.
Yeah, we count meltdowns too.
I've never done two attractions - Sounds Dangerous and American Idol
I didn't like Monsters Inc Laugh Floor

 

[WizardLarz]

I like Coasters!
Rock-n-Roller; Cool start, but way to short of a ride!
Expedition Everest;Backwards was cool, but also to short of a ride!

'88 off site
'00 off site
'08 Wilderness Campgrounds (Yes! Used a tent!)
'09 Pop or CB

..I think BO BEEP IS C-U-T-E!!

She blew me a kiss (when I took her pic at last week's parade) & I still can't believe I blushed!

 

[cherylleigh59]

-Bring back the appetizers on the DDP, you should have your choice of an appetizer or dessert
-I've never been on Space M, TOT, RRC, EE, ST, or TT, but I love Disney!
-I hate families that share a wheel chair
-I hate people who walk up and stand right in front of you 2 minutes before the fireworks when you have been waiting in that spot for 45 minutes
-Bring back the Hunchback show, it was so good it made me teary
-My caller id ringtone for my daughter is Splash Mountains Laughing Place. I have the spectromagic music for my son and my husband's is illuminations music.
-Magic Kingdom favorites: Pirates, Peter Pan, Haunted Mansion, Splash Mountain
EPCOT favorites:Universe of Energy, Maelstrom, "the Countries", Living Seas
AK favorites: Safari, Kali River
DHS favorites:The Great Movie Ride, Stunt Show, One Man's Dream.......
BOMA IS FANTASTIC!!!!!!

1) I have a serious crush on Maleficent.

2) When Space Mountain opened when I was a child, I made my mother stand in line with me for an hour, and by the time we got to the front I was so unnerved by the darkness and screaming and warning signs I chickened out.

3) I can still sing the "If You Had Wings" song from the old Eastern Airlines ride.

4) I could sit on the Tomorrowland Transit Authority peoplemover for hours without objection. Amidst the general chaos of Tomorrowland, it's as relaxing as a jacuzzi.

5) I was three-sheets-to-the wind visiting MK during grad night, the result of my ingenious notion to circumvent the bag-check by our chaperones by spiking fresh oranges with vodka using a medical syringe.

6) I have two daughters now, both of which are older than I was the first time I visited WDW. But that delicious thrill of anticipation that I feel when we drive in from I-4 and see the gateway arch -- has not diminished one bit.

I don't think a dream is a wish my heart makes.

 

[dahirsh]

It occured to me while I was at WDW this past week that in all my trips I have never had that WDW popcorn that people rave about

 

[imprimouse]

I'm 42, and hate parades not named Spectromagic. (ok, Mickey's Jammin Jungle ain't bad..) I've stayed in MK after my DW & DD10 return to our resort to watch it & the fireworks on several occasions. she gets over it

the only souvenir i need from my trips is the refillable mug, i never drink coffee out of anything else @ home as we've accumulated several

I secretly enjoy hearing people complain as i pass by them in the SR or FP lines for rides, they'll figure it out someday..

I love the extremes Disney goes to with their theming, they have ruined me though for other amusement parks.

we always stay in value resorts because we're on the run from sunrise to exhaustion. they're always clean & exceed our needs.

I gotta try dole whips & tonga toast on the next trip.

"sounds dangerous" isn't fit for the county fair, much less Disney. seriously, very disappointing.

I listen to Disney music all the time, and my wife (who loves Disney) still rolls her eyes.

DD10 & I often recite the monorail spiel about standing clear of the doors, and it's the only spanish I know

my eyes leak when i think of all the memories we've amassed since my DD's first trip in '01 when she was 3. I've got near 100gb of memories but that figure will grow exponentially on the next trip with my new HDcamcorder!
*one more*
my first trip was in '77, my mom would NOT ride the new ride, space mountain. we climbed aboard TTA (wedway back then) & when we entered SpM my mom started screaming, thinking we had tricked her into riding it

cant wait to return to my laughin' place. *sigh*

 

[Dee77]

On my first and only trip so far, the only Hidden Mickey's I looked for (or made any fuss over) were on pins that we traded for.

I secretly came up with my own game-plan for my immediate family even though my SIL had taken the reigns for making arrangements. Glad I did this because it became follow the leader after day 3.

 

[Floydian]

Well, I had a couple, mostly related to Grad Nights. But after reading some of these, that doesn't seem to be the right theme here.

Hmm.....Well, when I want to go for a walk to get some exercise, I'll drive 30+ miles to a WDW park, just to stroll around for a couple of hours.

I wish I could do that.

And as far as the PP who wrote about his mother freaking out on the peoplemover when it entered space mountain. I'm pretty sure I did the same thing. But I was 8.

It is Donalds 75th Birthday this year!
