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”.
New server policy. Lemmites who misbehave get sent to Disney land with a bus full of Disney adults.

Have you hear about our Lord and saviour Mickey Mouse?

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

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 11 months ago
I am exmormon and I see my bitch SIL in this comment and I don’t like it one leetle but
And guess which family is planning next year’s family reunion? And guess where they’re going to have it?
awwwyissss@lemm.ee 11 months ago
Yeah, I just start mentally checking out when someone talks sincerely about religion or Disney.
RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 11 months ago
TBF a there’s a lot of crossover between Disney and the religious. Disney is seen as whloesome and safe, and that may be true to a point, but it’s also just a furtherance of the conformity and exclusion of reality that the religious expect. Disney is militant on image and making sure the parks conform to their corporate rule. The religious love that.

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 11 months ago
Is it better or worse in reality?

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

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 11 months ago
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 11 months ago
Oh, I definitely want to, I just probably shouldn’t for the reasons you said lol

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 11 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?
HerrVorragend@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I like how that one pillar of the building could be mistaken for drool.
Very fitting.

You know, what I’ve always felt is really weird is how, in the US, it seems to be more socially accepted to wear a gun around than to be nude publicly.
Kinda like, a device to kill someone, is more accepted, than your own body.
So stupid.
Anyway, it’s the same for posts like this. Posts that go like “oh you’re an adult and are into disney/childish things” is more harshly shamed than “oh you’re a CEO of a big company and earn lots of money while exploiting your subordinates and the environment”.
Please, don’t kink shame. If everybody had kinks like these, the world would be a less hurtful place.
Gawdl3y@pawb.social 11 months ago
I think using the word “kink” implies sexual connotations, which it doesn’t have to be at all. 100% agreed with your sentiment, though. I hope that person had a blast!
bitwaba@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Well I get off on exploiting my subordinates and the environment.
Don’t kink shame me
grue@lemmy.world 11 months ago
If the other party doesn’t consent, you’re not “kinky,” you’re a rapist.
Jax@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
Are we calling being a disney adult a kink? Or are we calling shoving kids over a kink?
gandalf_der_12te@feddit.de 11 months ago
Sorry english isn’t my native language. Maybe “kink” isn’t the word I was trying to use. My bad.

This is a person who never had someone hit them in any real manner. I hope there is a parent there who is just looking for an excuse.
VonCesaw@lemmy.world [bot] 11 months ago
Acting violent to those you find mildly annoying is an actual disorder (intermittent anger disorder), I’d get it checked out before you end up doing time my brother
HikingVet@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
I’ll take the hate on what I said. People saying they are going to push kids are in my experience more likely to cause harm then me wanting them to face consequences
And unless you have a degree realted to mental health, I don’t need your armchair diagnosis.
PopMyCop@iusearchlinux.fyi 11 months ago
I don’t know, mate. I think shoving children out of the way as a fully grown adult is a little bit more than “mildly annoying.” One of the standards I have for someone to be ‘mature’ is being able to control themselves when appropriate. Your glee to see a mickey is not an appropriate time to physically assault children.
Vespair@lemm.ee 11 months ago
Disney adults are a bit lame, yeah, but I swear they have nothing on the demographic that truly deserves the crown for lamest and most cringe but somehow flies under the radar:
Harry Potter adults

Nah Disney adults are the fucking worst. At least Harry potter people fucking die and get tortured. Mickey mouse is just a cunt rat that was racist years ago.

And it’s my least favorite instrument. I actually mean that.

dingus@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Maybe a hot take, but I get why even adults like the theming of Disney World/land. The theming is just so intricately done that it’s honestly very impressive and great to look at and just take in.
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 11 months ago
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 11 months ago
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.
originalucifer@moist.catsweat.com 11 months ago
ive met some disney fanatics. everyone has their thing, some peoples 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 11 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, dude!

Epcot and Hollywood studios was made for adults. Convince me otherwise.
Notorious_handholder@lemmy.world 11 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
