Simple little thing that drives you crazy and probably shouldn't.

I have to admit that there is a particular item that drives me crazy every time I see it. That is backside of the WDW railroad. Through various storms (and a couple of fireworks induced fires), the vegetation does not really hide the back service area as much as it use to. At the same time, if I look to the other side, there is an algae infested canal. I don't really expect a large amount of trees or a wall to be installed but it would be nice if something could be visually done with the canal. I'm sure the fact that it is part of the property drainage system limits what they can do, unfortunately. I just really wish there was some way they could stimulate flow (without a fountain that would not fit) in the area that would prevent that algae buildup. A rocky flowing river would be nice but it likely can't be done. I almost wonder if some kind of well done facade can be placed along the non-water side to draw attention away from the canal.

Not at WDW but at Disneyland... Pinocchio's Daring Journey. The ride opens with Pinocchio singing "Hi-Diddle-Dee-Dee" with some marionettes. Why is he singing that song? He should be singing "I've Got No Strings". This didn't bother me until I worked in Fantasyland and I heard "Hi-Diddle-Dee-Dee" every five seconds when I was stationed at Pinocchio. It irks me now.

Definitely the crowds...it SHOULDN'T. I mean...it's Disneyworld...what do you expect? But they really do. I feel very anxious around large crowds and get very....irritable very quickly.

And especially when people "place save" in a line. So 1 person waits while other people do something else and then their 10-15 family members come and get in front of you.

So....it's the other people who really annoy me, but shouldn't.

Agree - I am in a family of 4 - have I sent 2 ahead to bring one to the bathroom - not always but sometimes but it has to be emergency. I hate when huge groups do that - it should not be allowed. Being 2 people away from Peter Pan is doable - having it change to 15 is horrible.

Riding on the Tomorrowland People Mover, I pass long stretches of dull undecorated walls. I wish they would paint scenes on the walls to make them more interesting. There could be comical ads from the future or at least scenes depicting what the future as Walt imagined would look like to dress up the ride. That also goes for other areas of the parks that could be dressed up with just character scenes or portraits.

I should also add the shop in the middle of the atrium of the Grand Canyon Concourse. There was something about that formerly open space that allowed me to just sit and stare at the Mary Blair mural that could relax me no matter how many people were milling around. Bu the restaurants on the other side don't seem to bother me for some reason. Maybe that explains why I'm fat.

I agree with the crowds, it always seems like people are getting in my way when at WDW. Granted, I do speed walk like crazy, and I usually always end up walking two or three groups across just to go straight. But people can be annoying as hell in WDW. Oh ya, and the ones who stop right in front of you.

Sonny Eclipse. His spiel is so corny and he's such a square. Great background noise if you're just enjoying a quick lunch at Cosmic Rays. But if I actually stop & listen to what he's saying/singing...I feel like I wanna hit something.

You know what really grinds my gears, Stitch! Everything about him. The way he looks, the personality, his voice. Obviously I hate the ride and how for awhile he was everywhere around the parks. It almost as if Disney tried to force feed us this character and it made me hate him even more. So I would say Stitch gets under my skin but probably shouldn't.

You know what really grinds my gears? The fact I cannot "Like" this comment more than once.
