"We're going to get a Test Track for Soarin'"

[musketeer]

One of the things that bugs me about these boards is how people tend to get SO mad at others for using phrases wrong. And that is not my intention here with this post, but after just returning from spending 5 days at the parks, I still think it's funny how people tend to use every phrase EXCEPT the right one for fast passes.

Over the course of the week, I heard:

Speed Pass
Fast Lane
Speed Lane
Speed Line
Speed Way
Fast Way
Fast Line
Fast Track

- AND -

Test Track. Yes, I actually heard someone say, "We're going to get a Test Track for Soarin'."

My favorite is an Asian tourist that asks " Is this the line for Fast A$$?"

Or 2 weeks agot at MK when a large tour group of South American's in line for the Haunted Mansion chanting at the top of their lungs "SPOO-KY CAS-TLE, SPOO-KY CAS-TLE!!!"

"I wanna go on Mount Everest!"

Trivial as hell, yes. I don't need you to say "Expedition Everest: Legend of the Forbidden Mountain" but just not "Mount Everest." I have no idea why it drives me up the wall so much.

Same with Mission: Space as Mission to Mars.

Good Lord, I'm annoying.

It was raining and we headed for The Land. We were in line for Soarin' and a family from an Eastern European country asked us if they "fly glider in rain?"

Me, smiling nicely...

"Yes. Yes they do."

I love it how people say Mission to Mars and they have no idea that that was something.
I hear speed pass and fast track the most.

Overheard in line at Pirates... "No, this one is Disney World. That one with the big golfball is Disneyland. We are going to Disneyland tomorrow."

"The four parks are Epcot, Animal Kingdom, the Studios and Disney World."

I would've totally wigged out on the S. Am group chanting at the HM.

Cinderella's castle....a very small miss step but it drives me crazy.

My favorite is waiting at the bus stop at the Wilderness Lodge and being asked "Which bus goes to Disney World", then after trying to explain which bus went to which park I get asked " Which bus is for the one with Shamu"?

When I go back to WDW I think I may get a Fast Track for that ride Test Pass or is it get a Test Pass for Fast Track?

I overheard "Runaway Mine Train" for Thunder Mountain once. Like the previous post about EE, I don't really expect "Big Thunder Mountain Railroad", but come on...

"The four parks are Epcot, Animal Kingdom, the Studios and Disney World."

Our cousins just came back from a Florida trip and proudly announced they took their son on his first Disney World trip. Excited for them, I asked which park they liked best. They looked at me like I was crazy and said "you mean which ride, right?" I said no and asked did they like HS, AK, etc. and they said "we went to DISNEY WORLD...(said it really slow like I wasn't understanding), you know, the one with the big castle. I would think you would know since you're such a fan". I just shook my head and walked away. Not even worth it.

It never bothers me when newcomers didn't get all fifteen hundred new names down to perfection.

That's what was hilarious about our family, they've been to Disney at least 3-4 times that I know of, this was just the first time with their son....they are not newcomers! I imagine they've been calling MK Disney World all along.

And foreigners, especially those who have a different mother tongue.

If we are tired,( Mom of 3 ), give us a break. I regularly call my sons by the wrong name... I blame it on the mom brain I inherited after I had kids, or lack of sleep... My own kids- forget getting the name of a ride correct (although I do)... Just remember some of these guests are walking zombies from being so tired-and some are just moms... The rest- I do not have an explanation for, lol....

Not 30 minutes ago, my kids were telling my dad about our trip, and he asked if we went on the runaway train.
