If you get Club 33, it makes you a panhandler.

If you buy at Golden Oak, it makes you a nosey neighbor.

If if you're a $DIS shareholder, it makes you entitled.

This is a fun game.

What does being a Floridian classify you as since your transportation costs can be significantly lower and you get deals too ?

I doubt this.

But even if YOU do. The vast majority do not. They don't eat in Disney restaurants (why would they when they have a home nearby), they don't buy merchandise, they don't use Disney transport, they don't stay on Disney hotels.

The high spending tourist, brings in money to the airports, money spent on merch, money spend on food, Disney hotels, transport, shopping. The full works.

But these high spenders have their vaccation ruined by locals who for some insane reason are given a discount year pass to attend whenever they like (bar a few blackout dates). They bring in their pre prepared foods, bring in alcoholic beverages and don't spend a dime in Disney - using it instead as a back yard place to come and chill. Yet they contribue to the huge crowds, huge queues for attractions.

The worst sin is when an annual passholder goes up to the front to watch the night time shows for the millionth time. Why do they do that ?

Disney is hurt by them, as the big spending tourists then look elsewhere as it becomes a miserable experience.

If Disney fail to stop the annual pass, i suggest a few of the following as an interim measure :

1) An increase in the blackout dates.
2) No attending on weekends.
3) Not allowed to queue for premium attractions when attending on a AP ticket.
4) Not allowed to bring in their own food and drinks.
5) If caught taking up primary spots for nighttime entertainment they will face a permanant ban from Disney.
6) They must take their own rubbish home with them. They bring in huge levels of food and packaging to eat in the parks. Why should Disney pay to clear that rubbish up for them?
7) To keep things sweet give them an extra magnet and some pencils.

My credit card statement would disagree.

1. My home is 5 minutes from the gate Western Way.
2. I have 3 resort reservations this year tied to runDisney race weekends as I'd rather take Disney transportation than get caught in traffic at 2:30 AM going to the staging areas.
3. I've eaten at Disney restaurants several times since I bought a home here.
4. My credit card is very familiar with the World of Disney, especially now that I have twin grandchildren.
5. The only food I bring in is a bottle of water and maybe a pack of chips.

NO ONE CAN BRING IN ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES INTO THE PARKS.

Are you sure you've even visited? Because you don't seem to know much about guests and like to make up stuff and generalize. How do you know those people you accuse of taking the primo spots for parades and fireworks are APs? We don't wear a letter on our shirts. Or do you accost other guests, demanding their ticket status?

I can't look at any direction in my house without seeing some park merch, on top of which we have a kid, and so loads of his toys were purchased at the parks, as well as plenty of his clothes, and all of his crocs.

Disney, if you're reading this - pro tip: your toddler clothes run small, and your toddler clothes sizing system makes NO sense.

Totally agree.

I bought two jogging outfits on my last cruise. One was too big and the other a little too small. Both were tagged the same size.

Sigh....

What annoyed us recently wasn't a clothing size issue.

Kiddo's going through a MASSIVE Nemo fanboy phase, and Disney didn't have ANY Nemo plushes anywhere leading up to Christmas, so we ended up buying elsewhere. Fast forwar to our first visit to the parks in January: NEMO PLUSHES!

What was funny is one was obviously for a little girl and one for a little boy. The boy's one was the one too small.

The Twins aren't old enough yet to be at that phase. Although my grandson discovered the My First Mickey on his bed when changing him...and he slept with it the entire time they were here.
