Maybe a hot take, but I actually DO get why even adults like the theming of Disney World/land and like to visit it so much. The theming is just so intricately done that it's honestly very impressive and great to look at and just take in. When you hear about the way some of these art pieces were designed it just makes it that much more amazing imo.

But why are some of these people obsessed with the people in costumes that are clearly meant for toddlers? I don't marvel at some sweaty tween in a weird furry costume. I don't get it.

[–] PaupersSerenade@sh.itjust.works 57 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I used to work at the parks and loved just hanging out. There's a lot of work that went into forced perspective and theming. Disney has always leaned hard into escapism, and it's easy to see why someone would want to be reminded of easier years.

[–] AlligatorBlizzard@sh.itjust.works 7 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Oh, hey, I worked attractions and merchandise at DAK back in 2008-2014 with a few gaps in there. And same, it was nice to just chill in the parks. Did you get to do any of the cast backstage tours? I got to go on one to the Haunted Mansion, that was really cool to see.

[–] PaupersSerenade@sh.itjust.works 5 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I was attractions at DCA around that time frame as well! Got to do a track walk of Indy, previewed changed attractions, and got to do Tower of Terror no-show rides when I was closing.

[–] AlligatorBlizzard@sh.itjust.works 2 points 9 months ago

I got to do a track walk of Dinosaur too, did you know that Dinosaur is just a re-themed Indy? They pointed out where the boulder would be on the other ride during the walkthrough. Disney did not put much effort into Dinoland at all, lol.

ive met some disney fanatics. everyone has their thing, some people are just really into that thing.

im happy theyre happy, but i also think we should just give them florida so we dont really have to be exposed to.. their thing.

[–] LillyPip@lemmy.ca 19 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Agreed.

Also, if an adult enjoys cartoons and sleeps with a plushie, I am not going to judge. Life is hard. Whatever it takes to get through the day, you do you.

IMO, telling people their benign coping mechanism is bad is how we get more shootings. Clutch that plushie, my dude!

[–] Daft_ish@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Epcot and Hollywood studios was made for adults. Convince me otherwise.

[–] Notorious_handholder@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

Getting drunk at epcot before the fireworks show while getting to eat good food is magical for adult me. I love the food and wine festival. And even as an adult the Star Wars area is still dope

[–] numberfour002@lemmy.world 53 points 9 months ago (5 children)

I think I have Disney PTSD from a former friend/acquaintance who had an almost supernatural ability to make any conversation into a conversation about Disney. So, now I'm super sensitive about it. Would almost rather a conversation start with "Have you heard about our Lord and savior Jesus Christ" than anything that includes the word "Disney".

[–] ElBarto@sh.itjust.works 19 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Have you hear about our Lord and saviour Mickey Mouse?

[–] Tvkan@feddit.de 18 points 9 months ago

Mickey Moses spent 40 days and 40 nights on a steam boat until they finally found land.

[–] meyotch@slrpnk.net 7 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Mormons in my experience have jumbled their ‘religion’ with Disney so hard they cannot tell them apart. The latest demonization of Disney by the god-botherers has caused some distinct cognitive dissonance among my faithful extended family.

[–] crystalmerchant@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

I am exmormon and I see my bitch SIL in this comment and I don't like it one leetle bit.

And guess which family is planning next year's family reunion? And guess where they're going to have it?

[–] awwwyissss@lemm.ee 5 points 9 months ago

Yeah, I just start mentally checking out when someone talks sincerely about religion or Disney.

Absolute worst place on earth. It's extortion to adults, brainwashing to kids.

I used to work at Disneyland. The "disney adult" meme doesn't seem to stack up with reality.

[–] rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee 14 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Is it better or worse in reality?

[–] art@lemmy.world 32 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Disney adults are just nerds. Almost all of them have been chill.

[–] MrJameGumb@lemmy.world 29 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Will I be the only man on the bus? If so this is getting dangerously close to one of my biggest fantasies... Don't judge me

[–] STRIKINGdebate2@lemmy.world 29 points 9 months ago (2 children)

You don't want to have sex with a Disney adult. You just don't. I actually know several of them irl. They always end up being overly childish and not in a cute way.

[–] MrJameGumb@lemmy.world 32 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Oh, I definitely want to, I just probably shouldn't for the reasons you said lol

[–] digger@lemmy.ca 11 points 9 months ago

Joke's on you, I'm into that shit.

[–] RandomStickman@kbin.social 10 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I'll allow it if you do a Donald Duck impression the entire time

[–] MrJameGumb@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

It's not ideal, but I suppose great rewards sometimes require great sacrifice

[–] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 19 points 9 months ago

I just want to hyuck you in my Goofy costume

[–] wellee@lemmy.world 18 points 9 months ago (1 children)

As someone who's parents couldn't afford shipping us halfway across the country then paying for Disneyland, i'd love to go as an adult.

[–] Bathtubwalrus@lemmy.world 29 points 9 months ago

That doesn't make you a weirdo, that's pretty normal. The weird Disney adults are the ones that have been to Disney A LOT and are obsessed with it. When I lived in FL I had a coworker that would drive like 2 hrs each way to go to Disney multiple times a week! She wasted all her money on Disney shit, and it was 50% of anything she talked about. Her husband even got a job there so they could be "more involved". Those are the weirdos.

How about we let people enjoy what they enjoy without shaming them?

I like how that one pillar of the building could be mistaken for drool.

Very fitting.

[–] crystalmerchant@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

I don't get it pls halp

[–] harry_balzac@lemmy.world 8 points 9 months ago

I'd just lock myself in the bathroom and let the fumes take me.

Im banned unfortunately

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (3 children)

How does one get banned from Disneyland? Hopefully not something as stupid as smoking a joint.

To be clear, I think that you should be able to smoke a joint in the smoking area.
