Donald Trump: Classic or Dud?

and he was very serious about it it was the primary project of the last x number of years of his life he basically delegated all the movie and park responsibilities to focus on it

You're equating Disney with the Magic Kingdom. At the other three theme parks you can open carry drinks.

It's pretty much compulsory at World Showcase in Epcot, ime.

As much I enjoy this completely insane digression from the pustulant thread subject, there is also reddening's thread of DISNEY PARKS gossip.

The model of the model city at the Space Mountain exit always reminded me of Logan's Run.

that story is wild, a utopian vision that fell apart when walt realized youre not allowed to be the dictator of your own town in america, he wanted disney employees living there too so he could control their lives 24/7

and then they rolled out Celebration, the city that was a very mini version of that, and then divested and sold it, and now homeowners there hate it, and say they have to get approval from property management for just about any cosmetic change, including their garden, and can't even repair their own property because of the way the mortgages are written, they have to go through ownership, who often will leave things like major leaks sitting unrepaired for like years.

(and though I'm aware Homeowners Associations regularly govern things like lawn maintenance/etc, in Celebration, you have very few freedoms to customize your property at all, because the whole idea is that the whole property is supposed to look uniform, like a unit)

lol yeah hoas are about half way to local dictatorship

Was Trump the model for Biff Tannen?

xpost McMaster!!! (slaps head)

Back to the Future is a Universal property, we are talking about Disney.

I once had a friend that grew up in Celebration, he said it was great.

The Biff of Back to the Future II bears a strong resemblance to the Donald and the Casino and Pleasure Palace is not far off from Trump Tower.

Huh.

the Trump of the 80s did not seem as thoroughly unlikeable and mean spirited as Biff was, though in hindsight he got it exactly right, which is pretty nuts considering Biff is one of the most unsubtle characters in cinematic history

I hope he rots in hell and soon
This was a grueling read and it breaks my heart that she hasn't had a romantic relationship or interation since this event.

when he defames mccain i see clearly the thrill he gives his followers

he's still got it

A former colleague of mine grew up not far from Orlando and used to go to Disney World regularly. He once dropped acid and got off the boat in Pirates. They had to coax him out of the scenery. That was his story, anyway.

saw some thing about how disney doesnt allow people to scatter loved ones ashes at the parks but people are always doing it anyway lol wild stuff

If my loved ones dump my ashes in the Magic Kingdom, I'm coming back and haunting their asses.

thats how they got the haunted house ride

my ashes are only permitted to be dumped on Tom G Warrior's head.

even if he dies before I do.

Wow, the only thing more cringe than having your ashes scattered in a corporate theme park is having your ashes surreptitiously scattered in a corporate theme park because the corporation actively doesn't want people scattering ashes there.

Like I am reasonably fond of Fender guitars and Jim Beam whiskey. But if the guitar factory and/ot whiskey distillery did not want my ashes to be placed there, I would not want my descendants to actively go against the wishes of the business.

if you throw your ashes where they not wanted and someone eats or drinks yr ashes by mistake u got nobody to blame but urself

A pair of students two classes before mine got expelled for getting caught tripping at Disney World.

I hope he rots in hell and soon

FYI, there is a rape trial happening against Donald Trump now.

Sadly, it is a civil suit, so he won't go to prison.

Think the point's more that it's a bit jarring and uncomfortable for the posts after Lechera's to be lols at the man's quips and theme park talk.

theme park talk convo began well before LL's post

you gotta wait seven posts thats the rule

Yes I am aware Neanderthal, don't think that changes anything tbh.

I never found the guy 'funny' and entertaining to talk about, esp during his campaign in 2016 - yeah, we all didn't think he had a chance in Hell to win, but the ugliness and toxicity he was encouraging made me to distressed to enjoy any part of it. only cathartic LOLs at his expense when he was soundly defeated brought me joy.

I think the theme park convo emerged from one of many tangents that came out of bashing DeSantis. i don't begrudge that, we're all living in Hell right now and sometimes need a little diversion.

but yes it is worth remembering Trump is a literal rapist and monster and as much as we would love the guy to get his legal comeuppance, we'd all be better off if he just fuckin dropped dead

pretty sure everyone here knows hes bad

I think we all agree that his death will be the first good thing he's done for anyone else.

It's more to do with this theme park talk after that a link to that testimony was dropped yesterday.

you guys should see some of the other stuff hes done

Guys your stale zings aren’t as important as maybe discussing the literal trial against him now, if you’re not interested then you’re free not to comment, but we’re also free to look at how eager people were to change the subject when that testimony was posted, and draw our own conclusions.

I can speak only for myself, I didn't mean to change the subject, the crosstalk is just sometimes hard to keep up with. I don't think anyone is interested in minimizing his egregious behavior, I just have zero hope that anything resembling justice will come of this latest trial.

no ones changing subject lol get a grip

Justice would be him getting eaten by rabid jackals.

im pretty sure im the one who hates him the most and understands how bad he is

Yeah whatever you’re so irony poisoned it doesn’t matter, I get it

xp Marla?

Dud

yes everyone who isnt behaving according to you thread rules must be poisoned ok

It is pretty easy to get jaded when this motherfucker does quite literally whatever the hell he wants and suffers absolutely no consequences.

If what you're getting from these posts is "these ppl think we don't know Trump is bad" you're very much missing the point.

lagoon, friend, you’re being an asshole
