Whatever they are referring to, MILF hasn't been around long enough to figure out if it sucks or not, and we already know that about SGE. But to say that about Space, Buzz and especially TTA is simply wrong and short-sighted.

Not only don't I find it funny, it makes me question the people who run the site and the reporting.

From where I sit, Alien Encounter and Timekeeper could have been replaced with benches and Tomorrowland would have been only marginally less enjoyable as a result. (Heck, considering TK's operating schedule before it kicked the bucket, a bench might have been an improvement. At least there would have been some use for the area.)

Stitch is nothing special and I won't see Monsters Inc. for a while, but based on what was already there, I don't see them as doing anything to bring the neighborhood down.

ok, so now "suck" is a dirty word? vaccum cleaners do it, black holes (thats not considered dirty here too, is it?) do it.


where does this PC nonsense end?

Actually, black holes do not suck. They pull, by means of gravity, i.e., gravitational pull. Black holes do not suck. They actually pull objects into them due to a gravitational force. Vacuum cleaners do suck, but I find it hard to comprehend SGE and Monsters Inc. LF, removing debris and dirt from their immediate areas.

Having a conversation that does not include references to lude acts is not PC, it’s a sign of intelligence.

i would think that the context in which it was used in the original post in this thread, it was not referencing a "lude" act. maybe thats your mindset, but i was think along the lines of stinks, is bad, etc.

btw, the only reference in websters to lude is a drug reference.

And by this one reference that you provide, all negative, derogatory and lewd connotations of the word have vanished...POOF!

there are plenty of words that have can have double meanings, george carlin did a bit on it years ago. im not gonna use them here so as not to upset the puritanical values of some of those present, but where do we draw the line?

The word is lewd, and believe it or not, way back when (when I was a teen) the word referred ONLY to a specific act performed by one person on another in order to achieve "satisfaction." We knew that it could be used to describe what a vacuum cleaner or baby did, but that was never the context when we used/heard it. ;)

So yes, for many of us, it IS inappropriate to use on a Disney board.

PC means a term that may be objectionable to a group because of sexual, ethnicity, religion, or race. So this has nothing to do with being PC, but everything to do with being polite.

When it is not a word I would use in front of my son or my mother it is pretty much a word I would not use on a public forum that somebody else owns.
Nothing to do with PC, more to do with respect.
