I work in a custom t-shirt store. I make group t-shirts for all sorts of occassions... stags and stagettes, trips, tournaments, going on The Price is Right... I also end up making a lot of lolomgzsofunnyisntitsofunny shirts like the doctor one. I think this video should be the beginning of a video all people thinking of getting those things should watch and consider.

I heard this in the park the other day...
*a group of people are huddled around a map staring at the Matterhorn, arguing possibly about the location of the Matterhorn itself* one of them yells "no, the Matterhorn is in frontierland, this is tomorrowland!" hahaha

I heard this in DL the other day.

Woman standing in line for Pirates spots a relative near the bridge and waves. The woman says, "Come on, the lines moving fast." The relative is confused and says, "Where's the entrance?" The woman yells, "What?" The relative, now on the bridge, yells back, "How do I get there?" I couldn't believe what I was hearing!

^ That's hysterical!

When I was there Friday, while I was waiting in line for Space Mountain, I overheard asking another tourist where Back to the Future is since they're in Tomorrowland.

Here's my own bit of touristy-ness...

I have to admit to owning a pair of Disney crocs. However, I absolutely do not wear them with socks. Ever.

A woman once asked me in line how they built Pirates so fast after making the movie. I didn't know how to answer that.....

Hahaha this thread is hilarious.

I think tourists are so funny to watch. Although, sometimes I think may people think that I am one when I walk around with my camera around my neck. I have a pretty nice Nikon and I love photography so naturally, I love taking pictures at Disneyland. And I take pictures of EVERYTHING.

That reminds me of something my ex-boyfriend said to me when I was taking pictures somewhere that we went together. He said, "Come on now, we don't want to look like tourists," or something similiar to that. The sad thing was that I got the message not to take a lot of photos, something I love doing, when I was with him.

...When they stop in the middle of a busy pathway (ahem, Adventureland) to study their map to decide what to do next...

...When they think that once you get off of the lift on Grizzly River Run, there's going to be a big drop like Splash Mountain...

...When, the moment it starts sprinkling, they all buy ponchos and then continue to wear them long after the rain stops...

...When, while waiting for the fireworks, they wait in the ridiculously long popcorn line rather than quickly ducking into any of the four lands around you to find another popcorn cart...

Man, I could go on forever....

When you go into the preshow of TOT, and ask if this is it, and if it is safe for such a big drop while standing up.

You know someone is a tourist when they are having loads of fun without getting upset that someone calls a ride the wrong name, you know someone is a tourist when they don't care what people or wearing, or how many times they take a picture of the castle, or that they enjoy the day without talking crap about tourists:)

Rules for Acting Like a Tourist:

#1: The proper attire for a tourist starts off with a visor. Not a baseball hat, a visor. Or one of those safari hats when you know dang well the closest thing to anything being "wild" is the design on your hawaiian shirt (Also a must for men). Sunglasses help, and the big thing to have are shirts of the exact same color with everyone's name on it, so automatically other park idiots (which is what you are required to call them) know your name in all it's specialness.

#2: Buy EVERY SOUVENIER YOU CAN FIND!

#3: Bring money to accomplish Rule #2

#4: At times, stop in the middle of the street. The usual time length is 1 minute or less inbetween stops, and over 5 minutes for stops.

#5: Get a map, and hold it infront of you as if you're someone who can see both your map and every person infront of you who may comment that you're such a tourist, in which case, refer back to Rule #1, and call them a park idiot.

#6: When you go to Disneyland, expect EVERY RIDE FROM EVERY PARK WORLDWIDE to be there.

#7: On your map, cross out all of the names, pick other ones out of a hat, and write them in. Every member of your family should have diferent names per every ride, land, etc. The debate can fill the 5 minutes required by Rule #4.

#8: Every ride came from a movie. Period. Punch anyone who says otherwise.

#9: Be loud, especially on rides. Who cares if you ruin someone else's time. IT'S YOUR VACATION AND YOU'LL GET WHAT YOU WANT!

#10: Finally, hold everything expensive, dear, near, necessary, unecessary, etc. right infront of you, as if to say: MUG ME!

#11: Most importantly, Walt Disney isn't dead.
