Adults going to DisneyWorld as if it was a sacred shrine
Adults going to Disney without kids.
never understood the appeal either lol
Going to Disneyland, buying that doll, having that retro console, collecting all the items in the set, buying that vintage car, getting a fat hog to crank it up with...
Its melancholic nostalgia, having the things we could never have when we were young.
I worked at Disneyland for 8 years. I still go there every year. It's been over 10 years and I'm still running into people I used to work with and can shoot the shit with them for an hour.
For me, there is something about that place that I took ownership of, cared for people there, and tried to make it better in the small way I could. I see all the effort that so many people have and continue to put in and really appreciate the artistry and care these people have.
It's a place that I feel comfortable in, and I like to just sit, listen to the music and the sounds of the crowds and people watch.
Yea but Disney makes money off of that passion...
Went to Disney last year. Never again. Lines are too long, you must use a phone app to get 'fast access's to rides, but fast access is now just normal access. Standby waits are over an hour for all rides. Some rides had no standby, so no phone app, no going on that one. Oh and the phone app has limited space that I found out is usually gone 5 min after opening at 6 am or some shit.
I had to wait 2 hours for jungle cruise while watching a non stop line of fast pass people just constantly walking on.
It's too crowded, elbow to elbow people.
Still 20.00 for a crap hamburger.
Tickets were like 380 for 2 of us.
Save your money and leave Disney for the foreign stupid tourists
We foreign stupid tourists have Disney Land Paris, thank you very much.
Still 20.00 for a crap baguette.
This is why I went through a period of collecting multi-cultural dolls in my 20s. When I was a kid and asked my mom for a black Barbie, she got weird about it and made me feel very uncomfortable. All over wanting a doll that wasn’t white. Fuck that noise, my Barbies span the human rainbow now.
When I meet a chick in an online dating way, at the first mention of Disney I'm gone. Unmatch, block, whatever's fastest.
i read an article where a guy was going there almost everyday, or every chance because had nothing else to do. i think somewhere in that article mentioned that people were creeped or got suspicious because he is a man with no children at that place frequently.
Lots of people that live locally near Disneyland or Disney World have annual passes. Except for a few "blackout" dates you can go for free everyday. I can't imagine why you would even go more than, maybe every 6 months.
