I'm curious to hear about any negative experiences people have had at WDW....whether it be rude cast members, rude park visitors, etc. Anyone care to share?

When seated for Space Mtn., I caught some cast members looking up my fiancee's skirt...there wasn't much she could do, because she had the lap bar down already...they stalled the launch so that they could make sure all the guys working there could see....they weren't even trying to hide it. When i got home, I wrote disney a nasty letter, and ended up getting free park tickets out of it.
Doesn't really make up for it, but I guess it's better than nothing.

During a visit several years ago, we had some filthy-mouthed teenagers riding behind us on the train in the Magic Kingdom. After a few glaring looks and finally a few words, they shut up. But, my young kids had to hear some garbage from those punks.

see...if we genetically engineered kids to be more courteous, we wouldn't have these problems! One of the benefits of A Brave New World....

Is it too much to ask not to spout filth?
When did mannerly become prudishness and vulgarity become enlightenment?

Kyle, I do not consider myself prudish; I suspect I could teach you a few new phrases.
However, there is a time and place for everything, and standing in line at a family oriented theme park is not the place to spout off one's list (usually fairly limited, I've noticed) of vulgar phrases relating to human anatomy and function. I know the words, I just don't use them in public among strangers. Knowing what is appropriate behavior doesn't turn you into a genetically engineered clone....just someone who is more pleasant company. (Oh, and trust me on this, when you save profanity for appropriate occasions, it is much more effective!)

I am VERY guilty of spouting off like a sailor in the parks...
HOWEVER....
I have NEVER done it with a child in listening distance, and only when I was REALLY peeved about something (like when some south american countries tour group trampled on my foot)
Here is a list of words you can use in replacment of the "Naughty" ones:::
Sugar
Farg
Gosh
Golly
Great Jimminy Crickets
Wowzers
Bum
Mother Lover
Son of a Bee
Tell me some of the ones you use...Im curious

Now, that reminds me of the time the movie "The Usual Suspects was on "real" TV. We were wondering what the censors would use to replace a certain frequently used word. "Put your hands up, you fairy godmother!" Now that's one of my daughter's favorites, plus Geez Patoot and Buttmunch.
Now that I think of it, I believe they did alternate fairy godmother AND fairy godfather, depending upon the lip motions.

So that was you?!
last summer my wife and i and my 2 kids were in line at peter pans flight.it was like 600 degrees out (typical florida summer) .
wait time was like 40 minutes and of course everyone is hot and cranky.anyway,im standing there after 15 or so teenage band camp members from some high school and all of a sudden
PHEW-SOMEONE CUT THE CHEESE!!!!!!!
it was the rankest thing i have ever encountered in my life.
being that it was hot,humid and muggy out didnt help either.
now i swear on a stack of bibles it wasnt me.
since i was the only guy in the area all these girls were giving me the nastiest looks u can imagine. i dont know who it was i even asked my 2 kids if it was them i even asked"honey was that u?" to my wife- after about 10 minutes of this green cloud of "hell on earth" we finally boarded and that was finally the nastiest experiene at wdw.
i still think it was my wife!!!

I could only imagine what it would be like to stand in a line as closed in as Space Mountain's or in the library room of the Haunted Mansion and having someone pass gas. As if the b.o. of people who apparently haven't heard of deodorant isn't bad enough. Another thing I dislike is when I'm in line for something and all around are these extremely overweight people or just grungy looking people (women mainly) who wear their bathing suits as they walk around but obviously have nipple rings or are sweating up a storm. That happened in a number of places this past September in MK particularly.
i hear ya-im the most liberal person i think on the planet and have known many people who have tats,piercings(in some scary places) and many other"non disney"characteristics.my own wife has a tat on her shoulder.i curse like a drunk sailor and and can get real freaky at times too;howeever there is a time and place for everything.
some things i have seen are
a-at disney village where the ground spits up water there was a girl who was around 14 who was topless
b- a guy with a shirt that said on the back"if u can read this the fell off the back-harley davidson ft lauderdale.
c-a lady who was wearing a t-back with a tatoo of a rose on her buttcheek at river country.
d- then about 3 years ago i saw a t-shirt with marge simpson giving homer a little oral fun if u know what i mean.
i have no problems with any of that-agian im real open minded) but use common sense and dont come to a family theme park with kids doing crazy crap like that.

Errrrhemmmm....I grungy lookin'(you would probably think my jeans had been ran through a meat grinder) and overweight (not extremely) and sweat up a hell of a storm. I wear deoderant and am by no means smelly but I do sweat. You've got to realize not everyone is perfect like you!

DisJosh, I think he specifically mentioned that they were wearing bathing suits! I don't think he has anything against grungy, sweaty, overweight people in general...as long as they're not dressed for the beach at WDW. I personally am not fond of the super neat, non-sweaty, slim ones wearing bathing attire in the parks, either!
