I feel the same way about people that eat at places like AppleBees.

IMHO-A lot of people just like routine and familiarity. Whatever destination it is. It’s like a familiar reward they give themselves. It soothes them to go back and relax in a place they know. They don’t want to have to think or have any unexpected challenges.

I wouldn’t want to do that without kids but if it makes them happy so be it. I know people who hate the beach but they are usually hairy or fat or pale. Some people hate sports or music. Everyone is different. I think hunting and travel baseball is a waste of time but others can’t live without it.

We only have one life to live. If that is what makes them truly happy, who are you to care?

Is it strange? Probably.

Does it affect you personally? If they talk about it nonstop and it affects your work, then yes. If mentioned in passing, obviously no.

I just can’t comprehend how someone is willing to spend that much money on an overpriced, overcrowded theme park meant for children. Add in all their woke nonsense too. Is this some kind of mental disorder needing to be diagnosed?
Why does it matter to you at all? Some are oddly obsessed with complaining about Disney. If it is not for you, ignore it. Does not affect you at all. I am sure you do things others think are weird or ridiculous.

Some people love it. I really enjoyed taking my kids to Disney but there are other places I'd much rather go. The people who go multiple times/year are probably buying an annual pass and see it as a way to get the most out of their money. If you're driving and not buying park tickets, it can be a cheap long weekend trip. There are pletnty of cheap rentals/vrbo's in the area and parking at the parks is free w/ the annual pass.

Remember Disney employees walked out over teachers not being able to have private sex time with 5 year olds.

You know exactly what adults at Disney are going for. We all do. Let us be clear.

I don’t care what other people do on their vacations, I let everyone be and TRY not to judge. Personally, I could never do it. My son is 10 and is over Disney. He’d rather go to a tropical island or snowboarding. Universal Studios is his choice if he’s feeling a theme park. But he typically likes nature related vacations as do my wife and I. I don’t get the desire to spend that much money and time at Disney, but I don’t care what others do that doesn’t affect me.

An adult who goes more than once as an adult is a glutton for punishment. Happiest place on earth my arse...kids crying from the time they get in the car until they get home...if they sold alcohol at a reasonable price the murder rate would be higher in the Magic Kingdom than any inner city neighborhood or war-torn area on the planet. A smart divorce lawyer could make a mint setting up shop right at the exit....

I have no issue with this (I think its weird, but ok), however, I don't want to hear any crying about not having money to retire and thinking the govt needs to take more money from ppl like me to pay for them. Stupid games, stupid prizes

Everyone's hobbies seem odd to people who don't enjoy them.

Duck hunting? frick getting up at the arse crack of dawn, freezing your arse off in a blind for maybe - MAYBE - a chance to kill a duck if everything goes right. I mean planetary conjuction kind of right, but without the predictability. And I'm not an animal rights guy - I'm happy to kill a couple of ducks after the shite they've put me through. They've got it coming. But frick all that. It's cold outside, and usually cold INSIDE the camp too. However, wood duck and sausage gumbo is delicious.

Deer hunting? At least I'm usually dry and relatively warm in a box blind. But I don't get many Utils of Value by ambushing Bambi in front of the feeder he's been eating at for months. It's like shooting your neighbor's dog. Except more delicious.

fricking golf!?! I'll pass. I have enough pretentious assholes in my life already. If it's a nice day, I can just ride around in a golf cart and drink beer. No swinging of clubs and searching for lost balls involved.

The list goes on, including the Disney affectionados of the world. It's not for me, but if you enjoy it, more power to you. I've seen many people return from hunting, fishing, golfing, and even some from Disney. Usually, they seem happy.
