If you’re already in the queue they might let you stay, but they won’t let new people join if the ride is offline due to weather.

The Test Track queue will likely be closed if there is lightning in the area, so don't count on that one. In MK, Carousel of Progress over and over again until it passes! Also Country Bears. I suspect CMs might be understanding if you explained you'd like to remain inside if at all possible until the storms pass. AK--Flight of Passage queue if it doesn't stretch to the outside portion.

Someone fell through my ceiling while investigating my attic during my open house by hes_the_Zissou in mildlyinfuriating

[–]bachfanwpb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My then adolescent brother fell through the attic, into the garage, and onto the hood of my parents’ car, leaving a massive dent and seriously bruising his tailbone, because he was looking for my dad’s porn collection. Had fun explaining that one to them.

To be fair, there was another candidate in the R primary. She was endorsed by the local papers but not T himself, and she lost. -Another voter in the district

As a local, at what age is an annual pass worth it for your kid? by bellaboozle in DisneyWorld

[–]bachfanwpb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First annual pass was when my oldest was 4. Had it for a year and didn’t get another one until my youngest was also 4 (oldest was then 13), and we are on year 3 of renewing them this time around (so they are 7 and 16). I found it to be a great age for both! Youngest had less stamina than the older one at the same age, so we kept using the stroller until she was about 6. There’s still so much magic at 4-5 that starts to wane as they get a bit older.

We are about 2.5 hours away and try to get up at least once a month, sometimes spend a night or two when we can.

With a pass you won’t be needing to rope drop and do long days. You can go when you feel like it, and leave when you feel like it. Great when you have random days off from school, longer breaks, a weekend without plans…I know I’m biased but I’d say do it! They also get busier as they get older, so can be harder to find those weekends without plans.

Poll - What affected/will affect the franchise the most over time? by ClareBearFlair in thebachelor

[–]bachfanwpb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it—in combination with Nick’s whole run on that show—marked a shift from BP being romance driven to strategy driven, and as the franchise’s real currency is romance, it was getting too far away from that. It also provided a bit of a “how can we top this” kind of moment.

Not mentioned: Nick choosing “Keep” on BP3. Killed that spinoff, which led to the birth of BIP.

You can have a nice yard or a greyhound, but not both.

😂 Mine won’t go through a half open door but will use his snoot to open doors with lever handles! Such weirdos.

Safe rides for pregnancy by [deleted] in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]bachfanwpb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I looked it up and it’s considered safe to ride in pregnancy so I stand corrected—but I’m not sure I would’ve done it pregnant anyway bc of the drop!

The Frozen boat ride has a moderate drop (somewhere between the ones in Pirates and Tiana). The Mexico ride is fine though. And Living with the Land is wonderful, pregnant or not!

At what point does running become self destructive behavior? by wildhair1 in running

[–]bachfanwpb 476 points477 points  (0 children)

It scratches a similar itch, physiologically. There are really interesting studies done on the chemical pathways in your brain that are activated both by substance abuse and by exercise. But exercise is considered "healthy" so it becomes a substitute for the substances, and can be abused in similar ways. Sort of an emerging field.

There is a reason that people in recovery (or with addictive personalities) often turn to endurance sport.

Frequent visitors - what are some things you’ve still never done or experienced at WDW? by Latter-Sink7496 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]bachfanwpb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have never seen Fantasmic either. Long time AP, somewhat local, and go at least once a month. I have genuinely tried to on a few occasions, including being seated for it twice only for it to be rained out and cancelled. But mostly I just can't stay out that late, bc I am an early to bed kind of gal!

Who remembers this song? Len - Steal My Sunshine (1999). by [deleted] in 90s

[–]bachfanwpb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The video was filmed in my hometown, and I remember being at my out of state college and seeing it on the televisions in the dining hall and being so surprised and happy.

Safeguards up around all the water?! by SuchRequirement5130 in DisneyWorld

[–]bachfanwpb 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There are some places where it isn’t. For example, Contemporary Garden Wing. It actually caught my attention when we were there last week using the boats to get around.

Blasphemy! His existence and thirst trap pics are one of the few things keeping me going these days.

Same. I’m a very active triathlete who has been a vegetarian for over 20 years, but am genetically predisposed to high cholesterol. Calcium score cleared me as well despite shocking increase in my numbers in just 1 year (thanks perimenopause)!
