The monte cristo has gotten to greasy for me, but I love the prime rib and Blue Bayou potatoes.
I don't like turkey legs but I'm sure my son would love them if I ever bought him one.
Fantasia ice cream sounds gross to me.
I've only been on the carousel once, standing by my sons horse, and it stopped at the top and he was terrified. He refuses to go on one since then.
I haven't been on a lot of rides in DCA.
I still love going to Muppets 3D with my son, his giggle makes me smile. We went 9 times in one trip, 5 times in one day! We have been known to run to DCA just for Muppets.

I think turkey legs and churros are gross.

I like DCA.

I'm not a huge Indiana Jones fan.

The goat trick doesn't work for me either.

I'm not a huge parade fan, seen it once no need to wait again. Same goes for fireworks.

The "following you with their gaze" illusion has never worked for me with the busts in the Mansion hallway. They just look like impressions of busts. Everytime I go through, I feel compelled to tell someone this fact.

I would enjoy Splash Mountain if I didn't get soaked.

My AP expired on April 6th.

I feel somewhat self-conscious when cast members recognize me as a regular.

I secretly hope they leave the tiaras on the Castle. I don't like the bunting or the Barbie railing.

I love it, but I'll be happy when they end the site-centric fireworks show.

I hate that Fantasmic has ruined nighttime New Orleans Square.

No problem with McDonald's in the Park, but - why did they take away one of my favorite food locations? Sell the damn fries in the existing foods locations.

Ever since the Dapper Dans started using microphones I've felt that they should be replaced.

I hate the Trashcan Trio except as pre-parade entertainment. I also hate cast member led screaming contests.

What did it replace?

One of them replaced Harbor Galley's menu with just the McDonald's French Fries. For the life of me I can't remember if there was a food cart at the wagon location before McDonald's moved in there.

Really, is there anyone who actually does enjoy cast member led screaming contests? (I guess there must be, as some do participate in them, but egad!)

I used to be involved in teaching cast member workshops which covered various performance and courtesy skills. I began one of those classes by enthusiastically shouting a perky,"Are you all feeling happy?!?" This was met silence and glares from the cast, naturally. I followed up with, "I can't heeeear you!!" Some of them moaned, and rightfully so.

I apologized for the awfulness of that opening, and then let the cast know that most guests feel exactly the same way about what we call "cheerleading." I'd like to think that everyone in that class immediately stopped doing it, but I'm afraid I know otherwise.

I've purchased McD's fries on about 6 occasions, and from both locations.

You're a braver soul than I!

Hmm....Alex's repeat ride....which of these is not like the others.....

I think Westward Ho was built for McD.

I tend to agree. The crowns have really grown on me.

I like McDonald's fries and eat them at the Park whenever I get a desire to have some and I can cinvince myself that said desire is strong enough to pay attention to.
