Went to Disney this year. Saw a weird old dude and his family wearing a tigerdroppings.com shirt.

Dude looked like alan Alda with glasses.

Disney was hot and crowded and fun. Once. I have no idea why anyone would want to go more than once.

When you add everything up going to Disney as an adult without kids is weird and stupid. Long lines, overpriced, shitty food, tons of fat people and shite brain kids. If you are going to spend 3-5k minimum on a vacation and choose to go to Disney, you're an idiot.


And lol at the people that went for their honeymoon, what fricking nerds

The real question is why do parents bring kids that’s are infants or less than 5 years old?



We just got back a couple weeks ago and this was by far the biggest WTF my wife and I kept asking each other. There were so many couples with just infants. Why would you do that to your kid and yourself?

I know people who take trips to Disney in Orlando that go without any children. Why is this a thing


Same reason grown men go watch 18-22 year old male kids in tight pants rub, hug and push on each other for three hours. It’s entertainment. Who cares? Are couples supposed to stop enjoying being in happy places with no crime, being around other people having fun just because they do not have a 12 year old with them?

One thing weirder than that is someone questioning why adults are enjoying themselves a when they are not committing a crime or harming society.

My parents are technically chaperones every year on a trip to Disney with the local high school and they really enjoy it. They just go wander off and do their own thing and they get to skip all the ride lines

Most of these mouse freaks have never dined in Paris at the foot of the Eiffel Tower, stood on a precipice of the Grand Canyon, hike Yosemite or Yellowstone, skied the Alps, toured the Hawaiin Islands, driven the Pacific Coast Highway, dove in Key West, etc., but they have eaten breakfast with the characters 20 times.

I'll never understand it. I know that.

I just went for 9 days and barely waited in any lines. If you’re waiting in excessive lines, you’re doing it wrong.

I don’t see the draw to Disney. Been two times and that was two too many.

I'm sure the adults that like to dress up like cartoon rats do like to touch children inappropriately

Most of the characters are petit females in the costume. Even Mickey and Donald.

I have never been. I might would go if it was with a group. I think it could be fun to see but I have never really had a big desire to go. Now what is weird is these ppl that make several trips a year nearly every year. Then post pics of their passes coming in the mail and such. Same goes for cruise ppl. I have a cousin that goes every year then post stuff on facebook counting down the days till their trip. It would be different of they going somewhere different, but it is not.

It’s definitely not something I ever want to do, and while I find it a bit odd when adults are obsessed with it, to each their own.
