When I got an annual pass to Disneyland I got one because I enjoyed going to Disneyland. I enjoyed riding the rides. I enjoyed watching the shows. I enjoyed strolling the grounds and enjoying myself.
What I didn't get an annual pass for was to do surveillance on other guests.
It's one of my favorite threads of all time. A family brought in a rather large meal from KFC to California Adventure and annual passholders had to witness this horrible Disney crime, and one lucky poster got it all on film. You're breaking my f'ing heart, here.
What I don't understand is why a Disney theme park enthusiast would feel the need to take a picture of this family so fellow posters can insult them on the Internet. Is there nothing more creepy?
This is the same forum where if you insult anyone the slightest bit you are gone, but that doesn't stop posters from insulting this anonymous family with their lame quips.
But dammit, they wanted to go to Disneyland and that was the only way they knew how without going hungry. Disney wants them to go to Disneyland. For these elitist AP types to take pictures of them and post them on the Internet exemplifies just how insane and hypocritical they are. Some of these people won't criticize Disney management for some of the crap they've done in the parks but they have no problem criticizing a fellow guest who didn't do anything to them.

The 2fer is when "those" people show up to Disneyland. You know the ones I'm talking about...First, some talking points. This family did indeed break the rules. They didn't break the rule of law, but Disney's own rule that they are responsible for enforcing. This family may have snuck the food through the gates in a backpack. They may have made a fuss and a frustrated cast member simply let them in.

I guess they mistook DCA for a theme park worth going to, even if it were free.Maybe that family couldn't afford to eat awful, overpriced Disneyland food. Maybe they didn't know about the picnic area. Maybe they didn't realize how close McDonald's was. Maybe they were embarrassed about what they did.

Wait, your family brought in outside food too?! That is the most classless, most crass, white-trash thing you could ever do- oh wait, you're a MiceChat poster, an annual passholder and a moderator, so it's okay! We broke the rules, but not as much as this ghetto family!Yeah, this family cheaped out on lunch, just like Disney cheaped out on California Adventure. Creepy AP assholes. You can bash this anonymous family all you want but God forbid you criticize these posters about anything.
I have to ask about how the guy took the picture. Was he eating his snack from BUR-R-R-BANK (LMAO) Ice Cream when he suddenly saw this awful family and their meal and thought to himself, "Gotcha! Oh man I'm going to be a forums superstar!"? I imagine that he preceded to slyly snap a photo of the offending act, his hands shivering at the excitement of what a scoop he had gotten. What a putz.
I agree with "sir clinksalot" here.
We should call out the idiots in society, and we should start with the idiot, elitist annual passholders on MiceChat.com.

There is a way they could have averted the situation dear, Spokker.
They could have eaten it BEFORE coming into the park. That would have not only been better, it would have been proper.
There. Crisis averted. You can now go back to whining about something else.
You seem to have missed the entire point of the article. Skip a few trips to TDR and take some reading comprehension classes.
I've stated that family broke the rules. That's not in dispute.
I'm talking about the creepiness that the MiceChat posters displayed by not only allowing someone to post a picture of this family on their forum, but insult them as well. MiceChat posters don't like to be judged or insulted, but some of them have no problem judging and insulting their fellow guests.
It should be up to Disney to enforce their own rules.
I'll also add that whining is exactly how I would characterize an annual passholder complaining about some family they don't know bringing some food into the park.
My God! As a registered mice chat user, this is severely embarrassing.
Oh please.
What this is, as the same with the rest of this blog, is Spokker being a whiney bitch because he was banned for being an asshole.
"This is the same forum where if you insult anyone the slightest bit you are gone"
AKA- WAAAA Micechat banned me!!!!!
I don't know what you did on Micechat, but they banned you. They had to ban you again when you created another account simply to troll on there. So now you've gone to simply creating a childish blog to whine on here. Idiot.
"and we should start with the idiot, elitist annual passholders on MiceChat.com."
AKA- WAAAAAAA!!!!! I don't like micechat cuz they banned me!!!!
Pffffft. Anyone who can't see this blog for what it is is an idiot. All you've done here spokker is created a place for you to cry yourself to sleep every night.
im actually happy you bring this up just because your an AP or a micechatter does not make you privelleged. People who come to disneyland once a year do not know the rules like the Ap world so what , they wanted to eat KFC let them eat it ...Disneyland wont ban you now or ever for bringing snacks or water bottles or food for kids.. but it is a sad state when an online forum is gawking at people for eating.... Very sad Thanks spokker for bringing this up
"AKA- WAAAAAAA!!!!! I don't like micechat cuz they banned me!!!!"
Perhaps I would have been more accepted if I called other guests poor white trash.
With the way you act you're white trash. People on Micechat, bluesky, miboards all know it.
Should I not comment on the going-ons in the Disney fan community?
If we're so okay with taking pictures of random guests at the parks, I think I might consider going to the hub on Sundays at noon, taking pictures of everybody there and comment on their behavior and the way they look and all that good stuff.
Or would that be creppy? Hmmm...
It'd be you being the dick you are.
Wouldn't surprise anyone.
I'm actually a big fan of these sorts of blogs. Good job on these articles (especially this one).
Everytime I've ever looked at Micechat, that place has been creepy as hell. Disneyland is not a fancy resort. It's a cheap vacation. You are not a high-class person because you take your family on trips there. Those people on Micechat act as if Disneyland is the freakin' Ritz Carlton and frankly, if they believe that, they're the biggest white trash ever.
I enjoy Disneyland too, but I recognize it for what it is and don't attach unrealistic expectations to it. This is like complaining that people don't wear formal attire when they visit McDonalds.
I am an autistic disney lover. I HAVE BEEN BANNED from Mice Chat. I can not believe such segregation such prejudice. I thought disney was the world of acceptance for ALL. I world of non judging and enjoyment. I am autistic I have been banned from the thing I love most? How can Mice Chat get away with this?! Can nothing be done? John Lasseter would not allow this to happen!! Walt and Roy DISNEY themselves would not approve of such prejudice. Mickey Mouse would not approve of this. How is it that NOTHING will happen to mice chat but for a high functioning autistic I loose privileges to speak, when the internet can sometimes be my only outlet?! Help me.
