Dumbest Things Ever Said

[yensidtlaw1969]

"That is the second thing i believe you have made up in this thread to get some attention."

"yeah that one is too dumb to be true."

"I concur."

I admitted to the Cinderella Castle one, I even had :lol: smiles in the post so you would know it was a joke. I mean, come on. It was a joke. It was kinda obvious. You all realized it, because you said yeah right. But I did NOT make up the Aerosmith/ToT Mountain one. Why do you people think I did? It makes me feel bad that people here don't trust me. .

I think that when you actually portray yourself as a trustworthy person, you will be trusted. By creating false stories you're not going to be trusted, as funny as YOU may think that was. For reference, read the story of the little girl that cried wolf.

I HAVE always been truthful other than that one post, but I thought it was obvious that it was a joke. I mean, come on. Who is crazy enough to swim in the algae filled 20K lagoon? I had about 10 lol smilies in that post so people would know it was a joke. I'm sorry that my post was so controversial. As you may have noticed, I have gotten rid of that post. Can we please just forget about this inccodent ( sp?)? I realize I have made a mistake and I apologize. Besides, this isn't the " Dumbest thing yensidtlaw1969 ever said " thread, this is the " Dumbest things ever said " thread. I'm sorry.

Well... for about 11 years, MK was WDW.

It WAS. Now it's not. People on this planet had eleven years to call it MK.

We were getting over it. I think you're the one resurrecting this and taking it wayyy out of proportion. Only like 3 people made a comment about it and it wasn't name calling or anything. YOU started to insist about it and I decided just to reply to you to tell you what was wrong with the post but you keep over-dramatazing everything. I guess I'll blame it on your age but whatever, the point is we got over it. Now it's time for YOU to get over it. I'm starting to think maybe you like all this if you keep instigating it. I guess I'll shut up then.

P.S. it's incident, just in case you cared to know the right spelling

 

[yensidtlaw1969]

Thanks for the spelling tip . I'm 13 uears old, so my age probably does have an effect. You know, the whole "one person says something and the whole world is against me" thing. Thanks for being understanding.

Get the visual first: It's 2:45PM and everyone is lined up and down main street to watch the 3:00PM parade. A woman walks up to us and says "Why is everyone here? Is something going on?"

All you can do it give that very pitying look that says, "They finally let you out alone didn't they?"

 

[raven]

Hmm. I'd say my favorite that a guest asked me was "Do you have any merchandise from that new Disney movie, Finding Nympho?"

And you think it's easy for CMs to keep a straight face after hearing that.

 

[DreamFinder1974]

I've got a couple of good ones from when I worked in Typhoon Lagoon in '94... Usually at least five people per day would ask me "Do you take wet money?" And when I worked in Lowtide Lou's, "Where's the family raft ride" and "Where are the restrooms?" were common questions, even though there were huge signs right in front of them next to the entrances. I likened those questions to "What time is the 3:00 parade?" (I still use that example - first offered in Traditions - when training my employees to deal with clients who ask stupid questions). (I miss my CM days!)

I have a couple to share.

one was a cast member in epcot at the canada pavillion. First to set up the scene: even though I'm 21 years old, I still have an autograph book and enjoy getting character autographs and the country stamps in epcot (I'm a kid at heart :lol: ). After standing there forever and letting countless kids go ahead of me (there was only one kid when I first walked up to the booth) I asked the cast member for my stamp while the kids were switching places.
me: "excuse me but I've been here for awhile and was only wondering if I could get a stamp several kids have went in front of me and if I can get a stamp, I'll get out of your way"
cm: (looking annoyed) "well welcome to walt disney world, we're here for the kids" :fork:

That comment made me mad because umm big people like disney too! It bothered me the way she said it too, with an attitude.

Another favorite was one that I was asked more than once.
guest: "Where are the fireworks located?"
As much as I wanted to answer "In the sky", I didn't because they were really asking where the best viewing location is in which case I directed them to main street so they could see tink fly.

Well that is just ridiculous...I hate stuck-up CMs like that. Kids pay...what? $40/day, whereas adults pay $57/day. If I want a CM to stamp my autograph book, they better stamp it with a smile! Thank goodness the characters don't mind posing for pictures with me

 

[DarkMeasures]

Exactly how is that one stupid? I still call it the WEDway People Mover. Unless you are in refrence to the "!" because I haven't heard anybody that excitied to get on the TTA.

I am. It's one of my favorite rides in all of WDW.

Ya, I was quite upset when it happened for the same reason. Kids couldn't come if adults don't bring them, so adults need to be made happy too. That's the only time I've ever had a problem. Characters are all usually more than willing to take pictures with me. Thank goodness the good things usually way outnumber the bad things.

On Christmas day last year we were watching the Disney World Xmas parade, and since my family was going to be going in a couple of days, we were talking about WDW. My uncle had just recently been there, and he said how he liked the Life Through the Eyes of a Bug (referring to It's Tough to Be A Bug). My family thought it was funny.

And another time when we were staying at the Polynesian my dad said he heard someone say something like "I wouldn't have come here if I knew it was going to be a kid-infested romper room!" :brick: What did he expect???

 

[diddy_mouse]

yeah, i've got to say that my favorite "dumb things people say" so far on this thread are the Rock n' Roller Coaster related ones. nothing compares to the guy with the southern accent. personally, i say, "hey, lets go do the Aerosmith ride!"

i did see one lady on the bus once and she had her Walt Disney World guidebook (this was on the way to Blizzard Beach) she was reading about Summit Plummet and once it was visible over the treeline she gasped and said to her kids: "oh my...you don't fly off the end of that do you?"

also, in line for Space Mtn...
momin southern drawl) does this ride to loop-de-loops?
kid: "i dunno, but if it does, you'll have to hold my hat."

 

[speck76]

I am. It's one of my favorite rides in all of WDW.

Me too, the TTA is great....relaxing, never a line, and a great way to rest

 

[WDWPrnces02]

This thread reminds me of....."you might be a redneck"........

The best one that i can think of is .......when a parent a child are arguing ...child, of course, crying bloody murder......parent loosing their temper....and saying.....We are never taking you back to see mickey mouse ever again.......:lol: :lol: :lol:

 

[aimster]

I worked for years at the front desk of one of the nicer resorts in Orlando, and we would here a lot of stupid things...the most common would be "How do I get to Treasure Island?" my response was always "I have no idea what you are talking about"

I would've told them to take I-4 west to Tampa where it meets I-275 south and follow that to St Pete and just follow the signs from there. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Yeah...and not 5 minutes later, the kid has a new toy, balloon, or ice cream (or any combination)...and then on the trip back to the airport, when the kid is crying hysterically, the parents say "we'll be back soon!" Of course...I'm 20 and I still tear up when I leave Disney World or Disneyland...
