Me either. Been to Disneyland maybe a dozen times (and loved it every time, at each different age) but have not been to DW, and I understand it’s such a different experience because of the different parks. I definitely want to go, but I think it would need to be multiple trips, not trying to see everything in one week.
They actually surf behind them now.
We called it skurfing when I was a teenager. I’m much better on a skurfboard or a single ski than I ever was on two skis.
I’m confused by this. Do you mean Disneyland or Disney world. I can understand maybe needing to walk through downtown Disney in California, but in Florida aren’t the parks pretty isolated?
I’ve been to Disneyland many, many times. We went there on our honeymoon even. Each of my kids went to a Disney park before they were born.
Disney world once - with my wife, my parents, my sister and my 2 year old son. 5-1 was a nice adult to kid ratio.
Disney is an evil company.
I suppose that could be done (assuming speed/wake height relationship works out), but this kid seemed to be using a rope.
It was Disney world. And the meeting space was in the middle of a park, and i walked from my hotel, through the park, to get to the meeting. I think i had time to do one “ride” en route.
Never have I ever eaten an oyster
I would say Disney and the like are only “magical” when you’re a kid. People go back for nostalgic reasons, but usually get the “it’s not as magical as I thought it was” feel.
The castles look a lot bigger when you’re a kid, but just look fake as an adult.
The rides are okay, but if that’s what you’re going for, there are cheaper and more thrilling alternatives.
A lot of white people I mean dislike seafood because they grew up inland.
Oyster is definitely an acquired taste.
I know people who would dispute your characterization. They go every year and appear just as excited as I see kids look as the date approaches.
In many ways I enjoyed Disney more as an adult. As a kid, I remember being frustrated by the lines. As an adult, I enjoy the people-watching and just looking around.
I can’t remember ever disliking it. I mean, it looks weird, and I was a little anxious before I put it in my mouth, but I thought it tasted good from the first time I tried it. Same with raw clams.
Well, it’s kind of magical seeing one’s kids react to the stuff. I was mainly tired, though, but the great thing is that at Animal Kingdom, my son just wanted to see the Finding Nemo “musical” (15-20 minutes?) over and over again, so I could just sit.
Suuuuper out of context sig line available.
Some call this addiction
I vaguely remember being disgusted by sashimi the first time I ate it as a little kid. Then liked it a few times after.
Raw oyster I ate for the first time in my 20s. I don’t think I disliked it. But at this point I’m pretty accustomed to the “ocean” taste.
Raw shrimp is now okay for me. There’s a kind that’s really sweet that sushi places like to use.
I had raw lobster once. Didn’t really like it. Haven’t had it since.
Now uni (sea urchin) is something I’m still learning to like. Sometimes it tastes pretty gross, but it’s always on the menu when you go to high end sushi places. So I’m convinced I’ll like it eventually.

Out of context awesomeness
But non-whites who grow up inland like seafood?
