Hi everyone, I posted this on the WDW board a couple of years ago and thought it might be fun to also post it here.
Each to their own, I know, but it puzzles me why some people have so much negativity and hatred for all things Disney. Why are there so many misconceptions and generalizations about Disney vacations?
Here are some statements I have heard:
Disney is for kids. As an adult, you really should have grown out of all that long ago
Disney fanatics/obsessives scare me. It's really creepy!
Walt was a communist/Disney is an evil corporation, blah blah blah
Disney vacations are too expensive/over-priced
Disney is too artificial/sanitized
I hate crowds and waiting in long lines in hot weather
You go waste your money on over-priced/sanitized Disney/Epcot, while I visit the REAL countries with my REAL passport
I'd rather visit a REAL zoo than Animal Kingdom
Disney food is crap. Disney caters to the chain restaurant crowd
Having your wedding at Disney is weird and creepy
I went to Disney once and I was bored out of my mind
Have you guys heard similar things?
What do you say in response? How do you deal with Negative Nellys?
