Read. Discussion: The hell do I care what adults are doing with their own free time and entertainment budget? Aren't the majority of the posters here negative expectation gamblers, to one extent or another? Partial quote from source:
He's an account manager at a software company? Productive. Socially beneficial. What the hell should anyone care what he does with his money? This should be the type of person that Conservatives like. Some people spend their entertainment budget in the bar. Some collect movies (or other things). Others love Disney. I can't imagine any impetus for anyone else to care at all what these people are doing. "War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen..let us give them all they want." William T. Sherman |

Mission146 Administrator Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 23 Posts: 4147 | I stayed at Coronado Springs once because an ex-fiancee' (girlfriend at that time) was a pharmacy student and had won some sort of essay contest trip down there to attend some four-day conference and could bring a guest. Maybe it was three days. I remember that she signed us up to do some timeshare tour that got us a huge hotel discount at the best Super 8 I have ever seen (fridge/microwave in the room, outdoor pool with palm trees, huge canopy with pool tables, bar, arcade and pizza place in the hotel), so I paid the amount for that which was needed so we could just go down there for a solid week instead. The only things I really liked about Coronado Springs were the pools and hammocks. The room sucked, did not have a refrigerator and the TV was small. That would have been basically fine, except it poured buckets all day one day and there was nothing really to do at the main resort building. The restaurants were ridiculously expensive and not particularly great. I think we went to Epcot one day; that was boring. They had some sort of beer sampling (as I recall) that we did and we also did some sort of ride on the pond, but I forget what. Something with fountains. Anyway, the amenities at the Super 8 were 100x better and we asked locals for tips on the best restaurants, so went to a few really terrific Mexican and Cuban places while we were staying there. I think also some Asian restaurant, but I remember us thinking that was just average. I have no plans on returning to Orlando, Epcot, Disney...or any of it. For me, I don't even care what's down there...even if I were a millionaire, the price is not justified by the value. "War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen..let us give them all they want."

Nobody is asking you to care what they do. Asking to discuss what your thoughts are on visiting Disney as an adult. The President is a fink. |

I thought I did. TL;DR: I don't care to do so, and if it appeals to other adults, I don't care what they do. "War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen..let us give them all they want." William T. Sherman |

AZDuffman Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 135 Posts: 18212 | This is amazing. Disney World had the first 911 system in Florida and today handles 24,000 calls. For those of you in Rio Linda that is 2,000 a month ot 67 a day. The President is a fink. |
