What is your Disney shameful secret?

[NJDiva]

Yeah Space Mountain is simply over rated. PS...tip for you, if you miss wishes etc, download the sorcerer radio app (apple) or go to their website, everynight at 9pm they play, celebrate the magic, wishes, illuminations, and Fantasmics. My wife and I occasionally turn it on. Haha. When not listening to normal music, we play the app. We indeed are Disney dorks.

ok you should have never told me about this app! I totally just downloaded it and have it on in my office. right now it's the Indiana Jones Stunt Spectacular so I'm sure the guys in the office don't mind...plus it's great music to work to!

Ah now I'm jealous! I should be doing this! And yeah...for the most part, its just music for atmosphere...can't be too distracting for an office environment. Glad to see other people are enjoying as much as I do! Haha.

I second that question!! If I could get Stacy and that Disney Parks TV channel she does the infomercials for, I'd be a happy camper!

Do you have Roku Plus player?? Or if not, Im sure the others have it also. Subscribe to the Disney channel... her and I have become very good friends!!

oh and y'all got me totally open with the Sorcerers Sounds App... god, my feel sorry for my coworkers right now...

I have the Roku Disney App...and I've watched every video that has to do with the parks, as well as the classic Mickey and Friends app! Currently I'm working on the D23 Walt videos! Hahaha.

Now I haven't looked into it yet, but read an article, saying that Disney was teaming up with Samsung and LG for smart tv's and blu rays players on an app that deals with the parks (and Roku maybe a couple months down the road..which I hope, because Roku is the best!). I have an LG Blu Ray player, and need to look into that too!

Its so refreshing being able to talk with people who get the obsession, I have to say!

OMG! Thank you!!!

Are these the actual names of the apps? I haven't found either of them on my iphone. I found other Roku apps but not sure which one I'm looking for.

Thx!

The Roku Player is an actual device that you connect to your TV. I connect mine through my wifi, and then you can subscribe to channels that you may already pay for or some are free - such as Netflix, Hulu Plus, Amazon Prime, HBOGo, etc... well they have a bunch of free channels you can subscribe to and Disney is one of them. They have a bunch of short animations, classic animations, Park tours, my girl, Stacy and her videos, different activities you can do with children, music videos, etc. I think I paid $79 for my player two years ago, but I think its a little cheaper now and probably with many more features/channels.

If you are in the iTunes App store, search "Sorcerer Radio" it will come up, with a green mickey type logo, and says Sorcerer Radio - Disney Park Music

I also verified MouseWorld Radio is still in my iTunes App store. If for whatever reason you can't find them there...I think you can always check their websites, and they have links too I believe! I hope you can find them! If you have internet access at work, I think they stream over their websites too!

*UPDATE* I just looked on the Sorcerer Radio website, they indeed do have an app in the Android store too. If you have a blackberry or windows phone, you can use the Live365 app and find their channel as well...pretty cool!

LaLa hit the nail on the head! Its pretty much the bees knees! I've purchased two, both off the website woot.com when they have sales, on refurbished ones for no more than $50. If you have netflix/hulu/amazon prime, this is pretty much a must.

1. Splash Mountain scares me so much that I won't ride it. I won't ride Tower of Terror either. Yes, I'm a total wimp when it comes to drops.
2. I'm not a huge fan of Disney movies. My extended family and friends are completely baffled by my Disney parks obsession.
3. I tried to recreate the pot roast from Liberty Tree Tavern for Christmas dinner. It was good, but not as good.
4. I kind of like It's a Small World.

I'm gonna get burned at the stake for this one but here goes.

I've been to Club 33 and Club 1901 so many times that when someone in my party suggests to go there I'll say "Nah, that's okay. Lets do something else."

you so need to hang out more on the forum, it's crazy how obsessed most of us are...like I still have to figure out 2 of my table services and my trip is 3 weeks away. you will totally get your fix of Disney conversation here!



by the way, still listening to Sorcerer Radio....

Oh, I've found my home!!!! I thought I had it all figured out on the last trip, but now with a year+ to plan the next one (and getting active on the disboards, woo!)...in a lot of ways, this will be almost a new trip altogether, while still going to the same place!

 

[themommy]

Stacy's a freak thanks for starting this thread! It's been a long run!

1) I read this whole thread...took me days!
2) I can't get through Snow White...every time I try to watch it, I fall asleep.
3) I have never seen Sleeping Beauty.
4) I don't care for the CoP, SGE or BL.
5) We've never had a Kitchen Sink.
6) Order from the kids menu every time I have eaten in Pizza Planet.
7) I want to smack the person that closed the bar in Africa ...they put in a new one that does not serve frozen drinks. I want my Pina Colada w/raspberry!
8) I had an ugly panic attack on MS the first time I went on it...went on it again a few years later just to prove to myself that I could do it. Not sure but, I think the xanax that I took an hour before probably helped a little!
9) At a show the CM says to "go all the way down" and then people stop in the middle of an isle it ticks me off. I will go by them and "accidently" crowd myself closer than need be and step on their feet on my way by. I do however say "I am soooo sorry!" very sweetly.
10) When you walk into the main entrance at Epcot....it is ugly. Someone here described them as tombstones and I have to agree!
11) Think they need to update TGMR in MGM (yes still MGM to me). Does anyone under 25 even know what 99% of those movies are?
12) I don't understand how anyone could think that HM is scary.
13) That I can't make my friends understand being Disney crazy because I don't like hearing "but you just went, can't you go somewhere else?"
14) I absolutely love the corny jokes on the JC.
15) I think, if I could ever get over the guilt, I might enjoy doing a solo trip...for shame on me.
16) DS12 filled me in the other day that he has never been on IASM. Totally my fault for avoiding it. I hate getting that song stuck in my head! Guess I'll have to brave it on our next trip.
17) DD30 hates getting wet on rides...I think she is a weenie!
18) DD25 and DH like Disney but are not Disney crazed like the rest of us. What did I do wrong that I can't turn them into us?!
My 2 biggest things though:
19) I...ummm...smoked illegal things on HM when I was a teenager. Guess they did not have video cameras back then. Please don't judge...didn't you ever do anything stupid as a teenager?
20) Extremely ashamed that one of my daughters is on the board and is going to see all that I wrote here!

T0 ALL!

I hadn't ever been to a Disney Park until the age of 30 on my honeymoon (my wife's decision), and am now obsessed with all things Disney.

I try to keep this obsession minimized, but Facebook friends ask me what the obsession is about, seeing as I'd gone the previous 30 without much passion...well from 15-30 at least.

So you basically sound like my husband. He didn't even watch a Disney movie before I persuaded him to go to Disney for our Honeymoon. If I'm not mistaken, we came home with a couple of movies from the park. haha. He's converted for life!


Okay, and so I'm not totally off topic here...

1. We don't have kids. So we sort of enjoy watching people attempting to calm their crying children in the heat .... or watching out of control tantrums. Yes, I realize it is not fun for the parents, but it does make us happy we didn't bring kids to Disney - although we do hope to some day. I'm sure Karma will appear then.

2. We stopped going to the Indiana Jones Stunt show. Come now, I saw it on my Sr. Class trip... in 1994. It's old.

3. We have not gone to Fantasmic because nothing is worth that long of a wait (we usually go in July because I'm a teacher).

4. We hated CBR, which so many people seem to love.

5. As adults, we go to many Character meals. Enjoy every moment, and I get all "butterfly stomached" when they come to talk to us.

6. Someone else mentioned this... and I'm with them - Emperor's New Groove is highly underrated. However, I believe this is because there is more adult targeted humor. When I saw it in the theatre, my friend and I would be laughing hysterically.... and the kids in front of us kept glaring.

7. I miss the longer version of the Backlot tour. The tram ride is pretty pointless now.

8. It is and will forever be called... The People Mover.

This shall be all. (for now)

 

[Asuva03]

Forgot to mention that she DID appreciate it! A few times she told me to quit talking to her and go have fun! Not sure if she knew I was doing exactly what I wanted to do...

awwwwe!!!!

 

[pandille]

I can't deal with ToT, I've only ridden it once and cried right before getting on (which was last year...I was 22). I just hate the drops. Loved The Twilight Zone show and the queue was great, even the part right before you start dropping was awesome. I just can't get over the drops.
Splash Mountain freaks me out every time I ride it for the same reason, but I still do it as much as the DBF wants to. I guess riding it as a kid makes it easier to ride now. EE, MS, RnR, BTMRR, SM...pretty much all the other rides at WDW are no problem.

 

[SoCalNerdGal]

The Haunted Mansion scared me so badly that I refused to ride it until 8th grade and, even then, I cried through the entire ride. I haven't ridden it again and I'm 35 now.

In my defense, I wandered into a really scary haunted house/fun house as a toddler and that warped my little brain. Also, anxiety.

I'm going to conquer it, though, on my next trip. I can feel it.

ok I totally mock those parents, mostly because they should have taken their kids back to the resort for some pool time or a nap. I watched one kid go into meltdown mode at 11:30 in the morning and they hadn't made it to the park yet!! they were still in the resort having lunch...the worst thing was that the parents were trying "rationally" talk to the child....I'm sorry after rationalizing for 5 minutes of a 20 minute tyraid it's time to be the mean parent and take your kid back to the room to let her cry out her issues away from the rest of the world.

Risking persecution...I confess, I wasn't wowed by Frozen. Thought Tangled & Princess & the Frog were way better. Didn't think it was best since Lion King. Maybe I bought too much into the hype and had too high of expectations. Even DD said "eh" 3.5 stars out of 5. I'll go hide now.
