It could be worse.

Not sure how, but it could be.

Go to a mall or something that has a pretzel place and some sort of soft serve or something and find out.

pretzel m&ms are good, but there's at least one per bag that is doughy and gross instead of crunchy and pleasant

gotta take the good with the bad I guess

Technically not the case. As buying alcohol was now a crime, and most people never stopped drinking alcohol the crime rate increased exponentially.

Also organized crime happened.

The guy’s an obsessive Disney fan with a rumor blog that puts up basically everything he hears. After posting a rumor about the Enchanted Tiki Room being closed Disney had enough and their official blog said “Stop that. No we’re not.”

He’s currently corncobbing.

The people you're calling idiots are the Disney people who decide to close down beloved classic rides and attractions, right?

When I was in elementary school we had a “news station” put on the classroom TVs occasionally. We had no choice, being trotted out in front of a camera to read a line off a card once or twice.

I was the one who announced Mr. Toad closing, since I’m in the Orlando metro area. My line was “Mr. Toad ride closes. Winnie the Pooh ride opens.” Then I walked out.

They shouldn't have to shut down old rides in order to build new ones. Disneyland should simply grow larger. It's not like we need Florida for anything else.

Agreed. Split Florida evenly between Disney and Universal. They'd both take better care of the Everglades and coastlines than the state government. The bar is that low.

But I'm talking about Disneyland which is in Anaheim and they had to buy office space from other companies to expand for Star Wars.


Agree on Florida though.
