No Cameras on Space Mountain

Not sure if "extended" but makes sense. You are jostled around a lot during that ride. Loose items should be secured during that ride.
I was on MMRR yesterday and someone dropped their phone. The ride was instantly stopped and a CM came and retrieved and then… you can’t make this up… whilst the ride was stopped another guest dropped their phone so the CM had to go back again. Took probably about 15 minutes to resolve.

Wouldn’t surprise me if this rule was extended to all rides based on downtime and lost G+ and LL revenue.

And this whole time I have been blaming long waits on the Lightning Lane… :)

I've imagined that people dropping their phones like this has been an issue causing ride delays an stopages for years now.
I'd be very happy to see them all stored away.

I wonder if part of the reason we haven't seen a strong Disney-lead move to ban phones is because of how they've steadily invested in driving folks to manage their every minute on them? I can see an argument that endorsing a strong Genie+ presence is in direct conflict with reducing phone availability at any point. Of course in new rides like Tron, they've accommodated that by building lockers into the queue, but the cost to add lockers for any ride with any boosts, bumps or spins has got to be haunting Bob's nightmares.

Of course, then we might see them require the use lockers and then charge by the hour for them like Seaworld does, too...

I'd like to know this as well.

"/s" is not a font.

ThIs KiNd Of LeTtErInG also is not a font.

I suppose Comic Sans could, in some circumstances, be construed as sarcastic.
“/s” is generally accepted around here as being a sarcasm tag for the post.

Others have used this, as well.

There was also a short-lived movement to use reverse italics back in the mid-aughts. But to be effective, practically everybody would have to download specific fonts, and you just can't get that to happen on the internetz.

I'm aware of "/s," and I really like the orange! However, neither is a"font," and I was wondering what font the poster was referring to.

OK, now that's a font! Was this what you were originally referring to?

It occurs to me, though, that to signify something as sarcastic kinda defeats the purpose of the sarcasm. The pleasure comes in reading something with opposite meaning as if at face value. The greater fun is when it is not so obvious.

Maybe I'll take to using this as the sarcasm font. Ha. Ha. Ha.
