Top Ten Tantrums witnessed at Disney World Last Week

[Julie411me]

10.  The tantrum I had back at the hotel because my oldest daughter left the Candlelight Processional, 20 seconds from the end of "Silent Night," whopping everyone in our row in the head with her purse as she excused her way through.

 

9.  The couple that was arguing in Spanish in "Frontierland."  I don't know what they were arguing about, but they get points for excellent use of hand gestures.

 

8.  The person from Chile who waited on us and didn't much like me explaining that "party of four" meant four people.   Silly me, to suggest that I might be just a tiny bit more fluent in English than she.

 

7.  The 70-something couple who had a loud argument in the food court of one of the resorts.  Her:  "You know I don't eat this kind of food."  Him:  "Then let's get the $*%@ out of here.  I've had enough of your @#$% for today."

 

6.  The 4 year old girl holding her hand over the mouth (and nose) of her 18 month old sister, sitting in the stroller, in an effort to keep the child quiet while she stuffed a big cookie into her own mouth, while the younger child struggled to escape and come up for air.

 

5.  The cast member that, when asked to trade pins, sarcastically told my daughter, "Sure, it's not like I have any work to do."

 

4.  Smoothie stand lady when I asked for a wet paper towel to clean up the sticky mess on my arm and her counter.

 

3 and 2  (tie).   Pouting girl outside Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique, stomping glitter-shoed foot because $189.99 later she didn't think she looked princess-y enough.

 

and

 

Girl in princess costume who ripped off her princess sash and beat stroller-bound little brother, Trevor in the face with it, getting in 5 or 6 good lashes before parents stopped her. 

 

1.  The dad who, while dozens of people looked on, screamed (and I do mean screamed) at his little boys, "I have had not one minute of fun this whole vacation thanks to you two and your constant $&%*$##%!  whining.  Can't you stop whining for 2 seconds?  You two have ruined everything.  Complete ruined everything this whole vacation.  I hope you are happy.  You make me sick."  He then looked up and saw the faces of the 40-50 people starring at him and left his wife and little sons to go to the bathroom.

These are all a tough vote!!  I can understand the kids acting like little terrors though, considering probably NONE of them had a nap...and well, we all know what the does to them.  But that dad yelling at his boys....argh.  He needs a kick in the pants.

haha those tantrums were all quite funny.  What is it about a family vacation to Disney that brings out the worst in people!?

We ended up after spending a ton of money to get into each separate place and then for it to rain and they shut down all rides, without a refund or anything, came back to KY called a few friends went to a hotel and he swam in the Hotel pool and had a blast...Disney Sucks. lol
