What is it with parents trying to shame other people into giving their kids everything? When my husband and I were in Denver, pre-kids, we got in line for security at the airport. We were stopped for a few minutes and then the line started moving again, and this woman and her daughter, who was about 9 or 10, push past us. I just kind of looked at DH like "What was THAT about?" So when the line started moving again, we passed her back. She starts going on and on to her daughter about how some people just have so much Satan in their hearts that they can't even wait in a line, but that's ok....they will get theirs when they die...they will go to Hell. The good Lord will judge them...if they can't even follow the rules and be patient in a line....well...just let them be in a hurry. She kept this up for like 30 minutes...the whole way through the security line. We just ignored her, but I was thinking....what kind of lesson are you teaching your daughter, that YOU cut in line and then chastize someone who doesn't let you, like WE were the ones in the wrong. I could only shake my head. Saying something wouldn't have done any good and I didn't want to make a scene in the airport.
I’ve been on this boat numerous times. I specifically staked my place in line 45 minutes early so that we could be among the first to board.
So they played basketball in the 90+ degree heat and humidity instead.
Well good for you! We went to Amsterdam Last...Tuesday? I don't even remember what day, but we went, and one of the things we did was a boat tour through the canals. We timed it just about perfectly and were some of the first in line to board, and I told DH I wanted to sit in the back because the back is open, where the majority of it is enclosed with windows and a glass roof. I wanted air!
It's too hot to swim, but not too hot to play basketball?? Um....ok. That's....I have no words.I'm sure I've mentioned my weirdo next-door neighbors before, but the conversation today took the cake. There are at least 3 kids living there, sometimes 5, but they have a huge fenced in yard and a beautiful pool that is only a couple of years old. Today I heard one of the kids ask another one if they wanted to go in the pool, to which the response was "No, it's too hot".
When boarding for Splash Mountain once a guy ahead of us who looked like he was high maintenance purposely cut into someone else's lane. When the CM reminded him of the number he was given to line up at, he said, "But I don't want to get wet!" So then maybe not got on a ride that has multiple signs warning you that you'll get wet??I'm sure I've mentioned my weirdo next-door neighbors before, but the conversation today took the cake. There are at least 3 kids living there, sometimes 5, but they have a huge fenced in yard and a beautiful pool that is only a couple of years old. Today I heard one of the kids ask another one if they wanted to go in the pool, to which the response was "No, it's too hot".
Some years ago, I was heading for the line for Living With the Land. Got up to the Standby sign and it was 15 minutes, so no big deal. There was a family of 6 standing there (not in line--just adjacent to the Standby sign)--and the father was trying to decide if his family should get in line, or go eat first. I waited there for maybe 10-15 seconds. They didn't move, so I entered the queue (1 person, not a party of 10 . . . 1 . . .). 
*slurp*
If you like that you should try Schrute Farms in Pennsylvania.
HE must have been from Jersey.O.k. My turn!
(Now, @NYwdwfan , don't read any more from here, o.k.?)
The mother says to her husband, "Can you believe how rude that woman was to cut in front of us?" The husband responds real snotty like, "Yah, she must be from New York!"
Christopher Robin looked good to me on the trailer.....but my daughter and her friend chose today to go see "Mama Mia Here We Go Again". They both said it was better than the original movie. Their opinion. I did not attend.
