kids can’t afford it

Passerby6497,

Kid doesn’t know what happened to the younglings…

sheilzy,

When I was young, I wanted to go to Disney World because most other kids I knew went there. Now, I’m 28 and no longer interested. Maybe I will be one day, but not now. Disney as a company has gotten too big and the “magic” isn’t really magical if 35% of entertainment media is a Disney property. Not to mention the state of Florida is run by a tyrant, and then Disney Land in California is just in one of the most congested states in the nation. Haven’t visited a theme park in years but the best ones are Story Land (lots of toddler stuff there, but still fun) and Canobie Lake Park. Maybe Knotts Berry Farm or Busch Gardens are some better theme parks in the southeast.

Canobie Lake Park

Dang, so weird seeing a local shoutout here. Canobie and Story Land were part of my childhood.

aoidenpa,

What about Coney Island? They call it the playground of the world.

Drusas,

Universal has better rides, anyway.

JJROKCZ,

Beat theme park in the country is holiday world in Santa Claus Indiana!

Free soft drinks, free sunscreen, free parking, not crazy congested, lots of cool rides and a great water park attached that is included in the ticket price. Plus good food, nothing beats getting a pizza for the fam and then riding one of the wooden coasters

sepi,

Star Wars and Facebook are full of old people

Entropywins,

Everyone has an old person inside, just waiting to blossom.

lugal,

That’s the most depressing thing I have heard on the internet so far. But your not wrong.

WhiskyTangoFoxtrot,

It’s hiding in the bushes of love.

themeatbridge,

Because making a lightsaber costs $250 per person and kids need to be supervised. So that experience is $500 at a minimum, and good luck if you have more than one kid. Most visitors do not have any children, and it’s because Disney has priced out families (not to mention the disaster that is the fast-pass system).

odigo2020,

For anyone curious to learn more about the fast-pass system, or who just wants to watch an awesome Defunctland video:

Plus the whole, “it’s in Florida and who wants to drag a kid through that shithole of a state and hear the complaints about the heat?”

xwolpertinger,

To be fair, I wouldn’t want to have a kid handle a lightsaber unsupervised. One wrong button push and they are a goner.

On the flip side you can save a lot of money when remodelling your house so it seems worth it.

drolex,

Uh oh Anakin is on the loose again
