The Miscellaneous Thought Thread

[George Lucas on a Bench]

Here in America, the Disneyland resort area is still shut down in another heat wave. An entire Summer of no business. The Summer of Love turned out to be worse than the Summer of Star Wars. All of this would have seemed impossible a year ago. While there are more cars on the road driving by like psychopaths and you can walk in to Downtown Disney, something I still have no desire to do, it still feels like the end of the world in the Disneyland area. We may be asking for many years if this was all worth it.

Oddly enough that’s what my son calls it but it’s more like “Isseyan.”

I honestly feel sorry for Disneyland fans. Disneyland's been closed for MONTHS.

You know what really grinds my gears?

People who reverse into parking spots for no damn reason.

Apparently it’s safer. I worked for a company where it was policy when using company vehicles and encouraged when using personal vehicles. Their mandatory safety training also included changing light bulbs.

Maybe I’m jealous. Maybe I wish that I was the kind of person who had the patience to reverse into a parking spot. I just feel there is too many damn people trying to get places to do that Kind of stuff where I live. Maybe I wish I had that sort of unawareness.

Wow, South Park had a Pandemic Special and let’s just say the virus was caused by a certain Disney mouse and Randy...and a bat or a pangolin.

Politics are a dumpster fire, Disney’s getting rid of beloved park entertainers, I haven’t had a burger since March...

but—Awwww, Stu and Celia are dating!!!!

Lost the BatB lottery. Tried to keep my expectations low but still angry. This system sucks.

I have never been to TDR, but at this point, I would say it would probably be my favorite Disney resort if I ever did visit. The BATB ride looks like crap, but it looks like they might have the only version of Splash Mountain left in a few years. I think having Splash along with TDS would make me like it more than the other resorts.

The main thing that I don't like about TDR is that supposedly their Tower of Terror is really tame compared to the other versions. The theming of it looks great, it is just a shame they made the rest of it so tame.

Yeah, but... then there’re those of us who never visit more than once a year anyway. And, seriously, most states have theme parks that close for months every year. I feel sorry for the employees and Anaheim business owners, but for fans? .... It’s just entertainment. Fans can do something else temporarily.

This site's trophy/point system is woefully under developed. Every regular poster is capped at 113.

I mean, it's a purely superficial system it's just weird that it's so limited.

It's about on par with the original California version of Tower, maybe slightly more tame. It's still a fun ride and the best themed version.

Well, I understand knives can be dangerous, especially sharp steak knives.

But have you ever placed your hand in the middle of the waffle maker and press down on the lid?

 

[socalifornian]

You’d get dark beer waffles. I see you
