You might be a DIS-er if........

I have two to contribute:

You are required to change your password at work every quarter, so having abbreviations only a Disser would know helps!


You are on the phone at 6 am making ADRs and one of your dds says she has to throw up. You tell her to take care of it herself or wait til you get off the phone. (Really I am not a bad mom, but deep down she understood.)

What a fun post! Really like the Arlo Guthrie reference.

If you state something about Disney with confidence and your spouse now responds, "I know, I know, you read it on the Dis." OR If too many of your sentences begin with, "Someone on the Dis said . . . "

If you have to bite your tongue to keep from correcting someone when they state things about Disney that you KNOW aren't accurate (like the boat captain that said, "Walt died just two weeks before WDW opened").

If you just happened to "forget" to remove the LGMH from your vehicle when you get home from a trip and wonder how long your spouse will let it stay there before saying something.

If you lose your LGMH at a park and at first you are sad but then you think, "Hey, maybe another Dis-er will find it!"

If you tell your spouse you are just going to check your email and instead he finds you on the boards -- Well, the link did come in my email (because I have a ridiculous number of subscriptions).

PS -- I am still waiting for an explanation about the golf ball and phone booth.

If you Have a closet only containing ponchos, swimsuit coverups, dollar store glowsticks, a hanging shoe organizer( with no shoes in it) , body glide, moleskin, crocs, a pop up hamper, lanyards, a huge can of pennies ( only the shiny or the really old ones!) and quarters, and several lime green baggalinis... you might be a DIS'er!

If you've ever been told you are "like a walking Disney brochure " and it made you proud you might be a DIS'er.



Love this thread! Lol I'm DIS'ing from my smartphone at work to get through the day. Lol

if you periodically check the trip report threads to see who was there the same time as you, and then check to see if you got in the background of any of their photos, well you might be a Dis'er

you might be a DIS'er if someone at your house needs a drink of water, and opens your kitchen cabinet to find resort mugs from every resort at Disney, past, present, and future!

Ok, I lied, I had to post the one I thought of while out to lunch....
you might be a DIS-er if you have your next 2 pet names picked out are Disney names and you have no pets at all...(Sherekahn and Mufasa)

Really like the Arlo Guthrie reference.

Glad somebody did! Did you see Arlo in the Macy's parade?

We got an announcement card at work today for a new Pollo Campanero (in East Providence, RI) and all I could think of was "but isn't that the new restaurant in Downtown Disney?"

My sister was at my house on Thanksgiving and said, "This is a great mug. Can you get it for me but without Winnie the Pooh on it?" NOT a Dis-er......

If you went to the post office to apply for your passport, and end up chatting with another customer also there applying in order to go on a Royal Carribean cruise and she asks where you're going and you reply "Disney Cruise" - and everyone around you goes "oh we're so jealous!", .....you might be a Dis'er.

Yea, I did...looking pretty old isn't he? I don't understand how I haven't changed at all but everyone that I knew back then seem so old looking. Just lucky I guess.

If you've told your wife "the next time I get married, it will be at Disney World!" (Yes, yes, I did.)

 

[Disneyfreak616]

If your little sister is doing a project for school on indian tribes, and she needed the name of a clan. If you tell her, "how about Kidani?!" then you might be a DISer.

 

[Tinkerbell0614]

If you've ever read a book on Disney Secrets, a biography of Walt Disney, or Hidden Mickeys.

If your kids are assigned at school to write a report on their hero and a fight breaks out over who gets Walt.

If your three year old knows all the words to the Three Caballeros.

If you've been put on-call for friends visiting WDW in case the master plan you've given them needs adjusted due to a ride breaking down so they can text you and you can immediately give them an new emergency back-up plan.

If you've pondered buying a tent just so you can stay at Ft. Wilderness.

If you've started practicing juggling so you can do the new Four Park challenge.

You have ever pondered building a ride (Soarin' for example?) on your property using a porch swing.

You know the algrebaic formulas to figure out if AP rates, 3/4 deal, or free dining is a better deal.

If you don't think it's weird to pick out exactly what you will be eating in 6 months.

So we have to ask.....what is the new four park challenge??? and what is it about juggling?? Sorry lol we are totally lost with this one!

we said the Disney Cruise with a vow renewal.

New four park challenge (watch the whole Youtube video for the juggling) And yes, dh can juggle and I bought him juggling balls at Dollar Tree so he can practice for when he & my 13 yr old nephew are gonna do it in March:

Years ago there was a video of the original Four Park Challenge going around but I can't find the video anymore. Over the years lots have been posted on here. But the above is one of my favorites of all time. 17 years ago dh & I did a 3 park challenge without a car that started with my dad dropping us off at the Swan and us boating over to Epcot. But we feel due for a 4 park one as soon as the baby of our family is old enough.

All of you asking about the four park challenge and the golf ball in the phone booth are making me feel like I might be even crazier than all of you!

By the way, I called the phone booths today. A new one for me. Called 4 times before I got someone. Freaked the first kid out. He threw the phone at his brother. Freaked him out too. Then I finally got the mom. Had a lovely conversation with her.

What do you all say to the person who answers? Because evidently, "I'm a stranger who loves Disney World and wanted to see if those of you in Epcot are having fun today," is stalker-ish.

Has this already been said?:

You might be a Diser when dh says ALL the time: "por favor mantengase alejado de las puertas." (or however it's said/spelled)

I did this! And I won!! It was a wonderful report by the way, if I do say so myself. Megan

 

[mstinson14]

if your christmas decor is showing a definite disney theme, you might be a little disney-crazy.

if you've made your own tshirts with iron-on transfers of dis-igns from the creative disigns forum, you might be a dis-er. If such activity got your zazzle order canceled, you get bonus points. Copyrights? We don't need no stinkin' copyrights. guilty ooohhhhh bonus points!!

if your dd gets excited that her plate, cup, and bowl make a hidden mickey at the dinner table, or if your ds has ever made little mickey ears on the letter "o" while writing at school, you might have to scale back your dis-er-ness.... i've done both!!!

wow!

 

[mstinson14]

You might be a dis-er if you have two christmas trees-one for all disney ornaments and one for non-disney ornaments!

Yes!!! This is my Windows logon sound! My DH gets worried if I don't quote it each time it plays.

 

[marie1203]

You might be a dis-er if you don't stop at the entrance of the parks to pick up a map because you know where everything is.

You might be a dis-er if you have your DH putting wreaths together just so they look like mickey.

You might be a dis-er when you go to get your mail and a neighbors comment "you must love mickey" by just looking at your house.

ohhh how do you do that??? i'd love to change my windows sound
