That talking skull and crossbones for picture taking on Pirates. THE BIGGEST CHEESE BALL ADDITION IN DISNEY HISTORY!
Looks like they spent under $85 on materials and employed some 3rd graders for design and assembly.
C'mon Man!!

I can't resist this one, closing honey I shrunk the audience and having nothing to put in its place, you could have left it open it was as good as anything you cycled through there since it closed. come on man!

I have seen 5 quite well done short 3-D films in its place. As far as I know this theater houses different shorts as a standing attraction. For me it is a welcome change since I thought Shrunken Kids was by far the weakest, corniest 3d show on property. Tough to be a bug, philharmagic, Muppets are way better.

Why do you walk around the Parks & Resorts with your head down looking at your phone, come on man!
The entry fee for AK (which is pretty much a over hyped zoo) is a big "come on man".

well it is getting a rename, which I'm sure will soften the blow a little. But the loss of the animation academy is really sad, I feel like it could still stay in modern hollywood studios, like as a post ride experience after mickey and minnie, but there's no evidence it will ever come back. come on man!

Sitting in a dark ride and then boom! A huge flash of light right in my eyes because someone had to take a flash photo. Come on man!

Probably my biggest pet peeve: sitting on Main Street USA watching HEA and seeing a thousand or so cell phones light up the sky taking pointless videos. People, put down the phones and take in some real visual stimulation, form actual memories, and think fondly of those memories months and years later. If you want to see the show again, look at a much higher quality video on the internet. COME ON, MAN! See the world through your EYES, not a screen.

This has always annoyed me since I was a kid even but when the cast member greets you and thinks the audience's response isn't loud or energetic enough and then wants you to repeat it ("Oh let's try that again people!"). I just have never been able to stand that.
Also............scooters. Yeah, yeah I know, it is a tired old debate. I don't mind strollers if you need them for infants. I used one but only because our daughter is under 2. That makes sense, not for a 5 year old though. But my main complaint is scooters. I mean, COME ON man! If you are in your 30s or 40s you can walk. If you are obese you need to walk. If you are 90 or genuinely disabled, that's different. I get it, you still want to experience it even though your body doesn't think so. I realize looks aren't everything and someone who looks perfectly healthy and young isn't always what we think, but let's face it, not everyone in scooters needs to be in one.

Big Phil... let me explain something to you. You will almost never see an able bodied person on a scooter. What you will see are elderly people, perhaps overweight due to the fact that their joints no longer function like they did when the were young so therefore are unable to exercise, etc.
You will see people, like myself, who will also be called Obese that up until a month ago walked two miles per day played golf and was on the go all day, unable to do that due to spinal degeneration. I can no longer walk over 50 yards without severe pain from my left hip to my toes. I can no longer just stand there for endless hours without the same result. I may have been overweight all my life but I have never been lazy.
Due to having gone to WDW with a young lady that had severe back issues and also having to use one myself for a brief period of time, I witnessed first hand the hassle that using a scooter is. Let me give you an example or two. First you have to maneuver it through crowds of brain dead people that are so entitled that they think that every square inch of space is theirs and theirs alone. Do they look around to see what may be behind them or to the side of them. NO, they do not! They just step over to the side and, Oh my, look at that somebody was already there. They get hit and blame the person that THEY walked into for hitting them. Not to mention that the rider has to stare at everyone's butt the entire time and because they are driving a vehicle cannot see the full picture of a place like Disney. Then, in spite of the foolish claims that they "race" through the parks, generally walking is much faster and can take the most direct route to their destination. The time spent getting those things around more then makes up for whatever "laziness" motivation they might have had.
After I went to the park with the young lady with the back issues (I was dating her at the time) I spent time with a friend talking about how I was thinking of breaking up with her because she cramped my style. I couldn't see as many things as I usually did because we were always held up by those 'other' people that stopped in the path or just had to wait until a sufficient sized space opened up to get through. Two days later I had an accident that made me unable to walk for about three months and still 8 years later affects my freedom of movement because of damaged nerve endings in my leg that make it so that if I am not concentrating on my walking will result in a face plant for me. I guess that is what they call Karma.
So I guess my pet peeve would be someone that thinks they know something and they really don't. If I were you I'd hope that Karma isn't reading your post.

My late father absolutely HATED scooters. He was a big guy but didn't look unhealthy otherwise. However, many years of truck driving left his knees and legs shot. He couldn't walk a few feet without immense pain in his legs. He had to use a scooter the last time we went to Disney as a family and felt like a complete inconvenience to everyone.
I don't have any issues with scooters or the people that use them. I am actually quite thankful Disney has those to offer people who aren't able to walk.

Going to Disneyland for the first time in the late '80's, during off season and mid week, to find out no fireworks unless the weekend or a holiday. Come On Man!.
