The Spirited Seventh Heaven ...

Well, some of them are almost certainly on Disney's payroll.

Kevin was a special case. He was actually a conservative blogger. Had his own site. Kind of made a stir when he posted an open letter to Sarah Palin in which he pretended to be part of a coffee club for the elderly. That was the birth of the Patty Melt personae. In this particular post, he claimed that (s)he had long been a supporter of Hilary Clinton. She claimed to have made Clinton-themed ornaments every Christmas. But now she realized that only Palin could save the country.

Here's a link to the post. It was typical of his/her posting style. Lots of down home stories about her bumbling husband eating all the Christmas cookies and getting in the way. Now imagine that but instead of the pro-Palin sentiment, a bunch of Disney PR.

It was beautiful, I tell you.

question, did this guy really went bonkers or is all part of his charade or stunts?

Think she ever got a Disney social media event invite?

Interestingly, its not the first time I seen these type of crazy mother problem.. keeping their son/daughter ill or dying to drive up attention and keep a "tight gripped" control over the family and friends.

Yes?

I actually agree. Some of the comments he made about his background were very telling. Plus, it wasn't the brightest of moves using the name of another Imagineer as your own....

His eventual undoing.

What happened to her?

Him.

Nah, not crazy. It's his schtick. He had been doing the same thing on his website for quite a while before he came here. He still pops up here under different aliases. But when he does, he gets called out on it pretty quickly.

I don't know exactly what his angle is. At first, most of us assumed he was a Disney plant. But then I think we all decided he was too unpredictable to have been on Disney's payroll. Someone floated the idea that he was harvesting material for a book or his own Disney blog. I don't know. Maybe he just likes trolling.

I'm with you, but too much to attract kids and the strollers will appear, then there goes the neighborhood

I'm still wondering why Disney does not put limitations on Stroller size.

If there was any doubt... Ricky likes Diagon Alley

Does this means Disney will cut ricky's of the all-paid pixydustdeluxe allowance and become an Universal leecher?

Two theories:

1) Bigger stroller sizes, higher rental costs

2) the recognition that society is getting fatter

After the princess gate scandal, he is probably not getting many disney invites again.

He has always had plenty of positive to say about Universal.

I'm really temped to go in february with the cochlear group.

[Mike S]

I'll probably drive up again just to go to Universal for the opening if I don't get in this weekend (probably won't but fingers crossed). Maybe we'll bump into each other

Holy crap, that is beyond awesome.

Come on, TDO. Build a Bald Mountain/Villain's Mountain in NF with Chernobog, the demon king from Fantasia on top of it. Only that could have anything like a chance of topping this.

Fanbois debating a joke? Bringing up real facts to dispute that a 1-day ticket at WDW does not cost $2 million?

As always, explaining a joke is like dissecting gossamer, but what makes this one funny is the nationwide perception that WDW is insanely overpriced. That's part of their brand now. That's the rap on them out among the general population.

[ETA: @Next Big Thing nothing personal by quoting you, yours is one of at least 5 posts I saw.]

I obviously understand it's a joke and i'm no fanboy. I was simply stating the irony.

In case you didn't notice, I mentioned how much of a great value all of Uni's ticketing options are comparatively to WDW (besides the 1-day).

Or they could do something different and not so blatantly rip off Universal...

How would a Bald Mountain/Villain's Mountain be a rip off of Uni? Bald Mountain and Chernobog existed long before Ms. Rowling's boy wizard.

 

[Next Big Thing]

Really. So, how do they keep a minor, who does not have a photo ID, from letting a friend borrow the pass for a day or two? Even wittle kings island has a digital photo for all of its passes.

They ask for ID and if your name doesn't match, they take the card. At least they have been more and more often these days. It actually happened to my friend one time.

You seriously can't figure out how your suggestion of also having a large winged creature looming over top is a rip off the large winged creature looming over top?

Well, but Disney thought of it first.

 

[Kman101]

So now no one can have a winged creature on top of something because Uni has it and they're being ripped off? Not that Disney would ever build Villain Mountain ...
