Oh, and they tell me disneyland has a caterpillar ride. :D

Did anyone ever stop calling it Tomorrowland Terrace? And no one is going to say "Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage," it's like bad Engrish.

My family always called the Skyway "The Buckets," and Adventure Through Innerspace "Monsanto."

Monsanto
Teacups
Mansion
Pirates
Space
Splash
Thunder
Train
Alice
Snow
Pan
Toad
Twain
Pooh
Castle
Canal Boats
Small World
Circlevision
Honey (or HISTA)
Buzz
Matterhorn

I think the ONLY time I actually use the correct name is when the name is only one word.

Autopia
Monorail

No No No!!!!

What's wrong with you people! You are being far to transparent. How will you ever keep your elitist clique rap if you use words like:

Pirates and Splash?

You must use names which are more...... unique!

Sinker, Soft Opening, Goat, Acid Trip, Lilly, and Buggies for example.

If members of the general public can keep up, well you're just not doing your job.

That's not the correct full name.

And don't forget canoes.

"Buckets" seems to still be a popular term for the Skyway, even though the ride vehicles changed from the bucket style years before they were shut down.

As SM pointed out, funny stuff, but what's even funnier is this:

I think it's the only ride acronym that has become a full-fledged pronounceable name, and that's what I usually call it. I think GD does say "GRR" on occasion, but we mistakenly assume he's growling.

What about IASW (pronounced Ee-ass-wah) ?
IJATTOTFE (Ee-jatta-toe-fee)
TMAOWTP (Ter-mao-tep)

Wow, I have a serious acronym disability. I know It's A Small World, but those other two? Are they attraction names? (I come up with "I Just Ate The Tower of Terror For Example" and "To Make An Omelette With Terrible Puppets.") I'm sure I'll feel stupid when I figure out what they really are, if I ever do.
