You realize that this thread isn't really a discussion topic, just a list of things that annoy you right?

Whatever, close enough.

Well, all those rooms will be gone very shortly, if they're not already, so there's one less thing to obsess about whilst crafting foil hats and writing hatemail to people who incorrectly identify the episode in which Spock diddles an alien hatrack.

Is this WDI's new mantra?

Me: "You guys do know Persian rugs aren't from French Polynesia, right"

WDI: "Yeah. Whatever, close enough."

Me: "You guys do know that Radiator Springs isn't in California, right?"

WDI: "Yeah. Whatever, close enough."

Me: "You guys do know that "Jimmy's space pop culture sci-fi beasties aren't mythological creatures, right?"

WDI: "Yeah. Whatever, close enough."

Me: "You guys do know that there is no country of Arendelle inside of the country of Norway, right?"

WDI: "Yeah. Whatever, close enough.

So much for Disney's legendary attention to detail.

Yeah, whatever. Close enough.
Me: You guys know that mice can't really walk on two feet and speak English, right?
Walt: Yeah. Whatever, close enough.

Me: You guys know that pirates are rapists and murderers and generally horrible human beings, right?
Walt: Yeah. Whatever, close enough.

Me: You know you can't take a boat round trip from the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia down the Missisippi River and back, right?
Walt: Yeah. Whatever, close enough.

Me: You know there's no way you'd ever find a straddle-beam monorail taking passengers to and from a Polynesian longhouse, right?
Walt: Yeah. Whatever, close enough.

Me: You know you can't really climb inside the earth and take a visual journey through space and time, right?
Walt: Yeah. Whatever, close enough.

:rolleyes:

The only mantra that doesn't work for is earnings. No investor is saying..."Oh, you guys were short top and bottom line? Close enough."

To ensure they are never short, Iger promises to use the "close enough" mantra for the guests only.

Expedition Everest hasn't worked 100% since opening? "Ah, the main coaster still works....close enough."

Nothing at EPCOT has been updated in 20 years? "Ah, we'll throw in a half baked Frozen attraction into a park dedicated to the future, communication, and culture. Frozen is loosely based on Norway, close enough."

WDW is too crowded to preserve the customer experience? "We'll waste $2b implementing a broken system that schedules every aspect of the guest's visit so we can track and plan their every move. Will that solve our capacity problem? No, but close enough."

This list goes on.

I wanna play too!

Me:
You do know that no Midwest town ever looked that nice and never had a Bavarian castle at the end of the street, right?
Walt Disney: Yeah. Whatever, close enough.

Me: You do know the Swiss Alps aren't by the ocean and that Switzerland, as a landlocked country, has no plans for an Atomic Submarine fleet, right?
Walt Disney: Yeah. Whatever, close enough.

You know that bears can't sing and would more likely maul the audience?

Whatever, close enough.


You know that the Nile and the Amazon do not flow together, and therefore could not be navigated by a witty boat captain in a small boat without crossing an ocean?

Whatever, close enough

Mice don't weight over 100 pounds, walk around on their rear legs, wear clothes, have big white gloves, and talk in weird high pitched creeper voices while our children grope them with our blessing.

Whatever, close enough.

To what, I don't know.

LOL! The Tastykake website store locator says the closest place to my house that sells those is 41.2 miles away, when in reality that store is 801 miles away. Whatever, close enough. :D
I once ordered a full case through Publix. It came frozen and I packed them in my carry on luggage for a trip to Boston.
They were still partially frozen when I arrived at Logan Airport. True story. I'm weird.

First mistake: Never fly in and out of Logan. That's why Manchester and Providence exist.

Second mistake: There's a Tastykake outlet in Haines City or thereabouts.
