Rude guests (rant sorry)

Hearing my significant other complain about it breaks me heart. I was there a month ago when the monorail was seating on party per section. When the CM guided her to board last night, another guest was there with her friend, she flipped and cussed her out by saying she couldn’t be in the same section that she would had to find another one, well she got a hold of a CM and the CM told the rude guest that he told her she needed to board there, my GF told him it was fine and she could wait for the other one but the CM was like it was fine. The whole ride she was cussing in front of my step daughter talking about how it was BS and threw a big fit. After she got out my GF waived another CM and the CM had a talk with her because she really crossed the line not regarding her warnings about how she talked in front of her daughter And was berating her touting she was an Annual Passholder and she could do what she wants.

I’m just curious how the rude guest got to magic kingdom in the first place since I’m sure she would had to share the ride with someone else prior.

I mean closest thing that happened to me was in a queue for astro orbiters when my daughter was just a feet away from me and some guy in front of me got irritated at her(she was not doing anything wrong other than holding her elsa plush) and yelled “6ft please” I told him to calm down And that she’s barely 4 and does not understand social distancing and that if anything it was him because I was in my spot. I try to be an innocent bystander but seriously this pandemic brings out the worst out of people.

Come on man really? This is a case where its better to be rude than to get Covid, or to allow it to be spread. We're lucky to be able to go to the parks at all, the least we can do is to do our parts and do everything that we can stop the spread. If your 3 year old can't handle what's going on, maybe a crowded theme park isn't the best place to take her. It doesn't matter what the moral justification is behind a situation, I don't think that's any solace to the person who was just given Covid.

It’s the way he said it, he was too aggressive about it, if it was like hey back up 6 ft, no issues my bad, I’ll move on with my day but the truth is that he was two spaces in front of me, we were bottlenecked in a U Corner of a queue with a guest in between and it was her kid that was being a brat, but since he was playing patty cakes with his teenagers and the whole stop and go with the line, he didn’t know the line was moving and the guest in front me was moving forward catching up to him, my daughter gets the blame because she was closer to the center rail when in fact it was the other kid. At the end of the day it was both me and the guest in front that called him out because of I wouldn’t mind if he yelled at me if I slipped up but don’t yell at a kid, that was my problem,

I‘m all about being safe and playing the rules to avoid the risk of others but I’m just following Disney’s Park guidelines and standing where I’m supposed to be, there was no divider in between like they usually do for all the rides and for a small second he glances over at her because the other kid bumped into him, most of us just go with the flow some people will leave like a 30 feet gap before moving.
I instill my kids frequent personal hygiene and her mask discipline was far better than the other adults who care to take pictures without their masks, but as a germaphobe I stay away, it’s like the people that rub elbows with you and look at you like you are the problem.

Took me a while to understand the monorail situation. I got so confused with all the pronouns and who is who.

I think people that go to a theme park with the expectation of being safe from Covid exposure are just not thinking it through. Too many assumptions...
  1. Kids can follow rules
  2. Adults can follow rules
  3. People think the rules apply to them
  4. People aren't rude
  5. People aren't selfish
  6. People don't think Covid is a hoax
  7. People aren't suffering Covid Fatigue
  8. People don't lose inhibitions when they drink
  9. Some people aren't just simply....stupid
  10. Some people like to stir up drama
  11. People think when you go to a busy theme park, you accept the risks
  12. There is room in amongst the writhing mass of people to keep safe distance
The list goes on, but gets derivative. My point being, if I go to WDW I am giving up and am looking into ways to quarantine when I get home and figuring out what I will do while I have covid. I am NOT going to WDW and crabbing at people because they get to close because...

I. am. at. a. giant. loaded. theme. park. It should be what you expect to happen.

And, let's not forget, WDW packing the parks is a big part of the problem. We fight, blame, and bicker with each other, but look who set all the gladiators lose in the arena at the same time? Julius Mouse Caesar.

Even a thread started in 2016 is about COVID.

Well COVID did change rude behavior from "my kid deserves your parade spot that you waited over an hour for, because Disney is for kids" to "one member of my party is on the social distancing marker, the others can spread out and eat up YOUR 6 feet in the queue"

Never thought I'd long for the return of the "Disney is for kids" people.
