The way you phrased your previous post made me think you were referring to some hidden setting to stop all programs running in the background. I know about the individual app settings (I have a Galaxy S8), I disable all the stupid bloatware as well as turn off notifications for about 90% of my...

Nope, because I have a handful of apps that I want running in the background. I usually just manually close all open apps and clear cache whenever I'm done using the phone for the moment. It has worked pretty well up to this point, usually by the end of the day I'm at about 40% or so (unless I'm...

Um..........don't tell anyone but I goofed on my math, I'll be celebrating 19 years this year, not 18 (got married in 99). Shhh......don't tell my wife. :facepalm:

I've never let my geek flag fly too high, but my wife knows me well enough these days that she just knows what I'm thinking and laughs at my geekiness(been married almost 19 years). Whats funny is I'm rubbing off on my son, hes 11 and loves WDW as much as I do, so my wife is outnumbered. I will...

Based on my personal experience, I think the battery issue is 100% caused by the Disney App. I have always used Android phones and if I use the Disney app while I'm in the park and for some reason forget to close it out completely (so its no longer running in the background), my battery would be...

That place is a complete crap shoot when it comes to food quality. We ate there back in 2013 and the food was excellent, I had the most amazing burger. But then we went again last year and it was the worst meal of our trip.

For any of you that drove down to WDW during the 80's and 90's, you will remember that when you could finally tune in to the WDW information radio station, you knew you were close and the excitement became that much more unbearable. Now I remember several different spiels that used to run on the...

Holy crap!! Are you me? My favorite spots have changed over the years, but what you just mentioned will always be some of my favorite childhood memories. EDIT: Speaking of the WDW radio, does anyone know where one could dig up a recording of that whole loop that used to play on that station?

I just have to say that I can't believe this thread is still active after 11 years. I haven't been on the site in quite a long time and to come back and find people are still posting here is pretty funny. The Yeti has been in B mode for the past 10 years. LOL!!

While you are more than welcome to your opinion, I will say that you seem to continually set yourself up for disappointment by expecting to relive the experience you had as a kid in the 80s and 90s. WDW has evolved from those days to appeal to a wider audience (that seem to have different tastes...

For me and my family, its all about leaving the stresses of life behind you for a few days and escaping to a world of fun. When we're in WDW nothing exists outside of the parks as far as we are concerned, no day to day stress, no schedules, no traffic, no appointments; just lots of fun, food...

PoTC or the area of Adventureland just outside of it. Also World Showcase

This is feasibly the only situation where they would ever put any sort of ride anywhere outside the parks. A small carousel at Boardwalk would make sense as far as continuity and theming, anything beyond that would just be dumb. Why have theme parks if you're not going to put all your rides in...

That would be completely awesome. The idea of a complete immersion resort where you are allowed/encouraged to dress in costume to participate in the immersion(a la Westworld) sounds absolutely amazing. However, I doubt they would ever take it that far, the costs alone for staff upkeep(makeup...

The problem with that is its not guaranteed income and most wait staff have to take on a second job just to make ends meet, its becoming more and more common for people not to tip, especially since most European countries do not allow tipping of wait staff since they're paid full hourly wages...

Nope. Its not like I'm saying they're boring, these attractions are air conditioned and you can sit down for an extended period. Now I will admit Tough to be a Bug is a bit loud for any sort of relaxing, but its always cold in that auditorium which is HUGE during the peak of Fla summers.

Magic Kingdom: PeopleMover, PoTC EPCOT: SSE, Grand Fiesta Tour, Energy Hollywood Studios: GMR, Muppets 3-D Animal Kingdom: Tough to be a Bug

So they're required to make the towel animals? Or is it just a general "Do something unique"?

Wow, I can't believe you guys are arguing over semantics and personal preference. There is no standard as to who deserves a tip and who does not, each person sees things differently and will not always see a need to tip in situations where others do. But all in all no one should be insulted or...

I've been staying at Pop Century for years (pretty much since it opened) and I've never had an experience such as yours. I've never had a room that smelled musty, usually they smell very clean (maybe we just check-in later than most so the ventilation has a chance to clear out any bad smells)...
