The Miscellaneous Thought Thread

Why do I keep getting ads on here for gay cruises and the like? You can’t be straight and go on Disney fan forums all day?

Btw, were you recently looking up vacations or cruise pricing? That might be the reason why that particular ad popped up.

Or maybe they're trying to tell you something based on your click history....

Probably my biggest peeve in the parks. One can only dream of a day where Disney actively prohibits talking in the foyer, elevator, and hallway.

Walls have gone up around one of the bases around the People-Rods track.

Lol! Well this site is the only place those kind of ads pop up for me.

I have been looking up vacations from time to time.

I use Firefox, which has many free ad blockers add-ons, so its pretty easy.

AdBlock Plus is a pretty good free one that I use. It sits up in the tool bar telling you how many ads get blocked on the site you're visiting. One site I visited it blocked like 30+ ads. Anyways, you can click on it and enabled/disable for any particular site at anytime.

Good to know. Thanks!

Hopefully this means removal project has begun.

@mickEblu sees ads for gay cruises, but I see ads for Universal Orlando. Hmm...

Wait a minute. Is that the Ghostbusters firehouse?

The real question is pink or white animal cookies?

So when are we getting the trip report @nevol ? Just found my son watching a walk through of DLP on YouTube and thought of you. Haha. I’ll put on a video of Fantasmic on and it ll end up on some random dudes walking around a foreign Disney park.

Anyway the IASW area in Paris looks really nice.

Both, but white over pink.

Both...mixed into ice cream. I get it at Thrifty.

Neither. And not those imposters Costco sells in a 5-gallon jug, either. Barnum's are the only real way to go. Nothing else comes close.

Getting ready for GE crowds!

Yup, they should mow over all those weird small world mall extended queue areas and the parade lighting towers. The motorboat cruise area and those standalone merch carts in that maze behind matterhorn on the way to tomorrowland. That entire area of disneyland is not up to disney standards.

Lol. That area between Edelweiss snacks and the Matterhorn Q is really organized and disfunctional isn’t it? It is charming though in a very Disneyland way. I’m definitely pro FL expansion but I worry about losing that thick Autopia Forrest we have between it and harbor. Harbor Blvd. is like right there.

Word on the street (Reddit) is that Earl of Sandwich is coming back. But I can’t share the link because I accidentally hid the post. Looks like they re rehiring positions.

 

[Phroobar]

Meh, I've eaten at the Earl of Sandwich. I didn't think it lived up to the hype.

Rather than keep trying to make Tomorrowland "futuristic", they should really embrace the past and create "Yesterland". Dust off some old school stuff (even retro-fitting things like Cranium Command and Body Wars) and just live in the past.

How about just going the Meet the Robinsons route and make "TodayLand".
