Musin9s – Jan 3, 2019

I’ve always struggled with my relationship with writing. It’s something I generally feel I’m good at, and others seem to appreciate what I put out there, but it can often seem like a chore. But it’s undeniable that I’m in a better state when I’m typing things out that I enjoy. So my goal for 2019 is to make it a priority to churn something out as frequently as I’m able. So in an effort to combine things I enjoy (lists, creativity) with things I probably need (gratitude, an outlet) I came up with this idea this morning for a series of listicle style posts I’m going to call “Musin9s” – a list of 9 thoughts that came across my mind over the course of the day. Why 9? Because it’s a top 10 with 10% off. I dunno. I like 9. Cut me some slack.

Here goes:
1) I’m at my happiest when I’m spending the least time possible on my social media networks

2) I know many people who feel compelled to be genuinely upset over which NHL players made the All Star Team without recognizing having this as a problem means they must not have any actual problems at the moment

3) Money is the root of all evil… but bad guy wrestlers always seem to be having the most fun

4) This morning I saw a guy driving a Hyundai who almost smashed into a boulevard because they were in so much of a hurry, which was weird because no one who drives a Hyundai is important enough to need to be anywhere that quickly.

5) Yellow is nobody’s favourite colour 

6)The easiest way to become disappointed in yourself is to let down your dog.

7) How come Mother Gothel just didn’t tell Rapunzel her birthday was literally any other date than the one the floating lanterns were released for the missing princess?

8) It’s not that I don’t think people are good. I believe we all aspire to be good people in life. I just don’t think that’s mankind’s default setting. Being an admirable human is really hard.

9) The fastest thing in the universe is the speed of light. The second fastest? A cat who just realized you’re typing on your computer.

Disney Park Hot Takes

This is the internet. And because of that, it’s almost required to post unpopular opinions as facts. Personally, I love it when people drop hot takes. So I thought I’d hammer out some controversial statements – some WTFs about WDW&DL- because sometimes it’s fun to get stuff off your chest.

So here we go:

  • The Disney Dining Plan is a tax on people who can’t do math. It makes no sense unless you’re big on character meals.
  • Flight of Passage is great, but if you show up to the park 90 minutes before it opens to rope drop it – YOU STILL WAITED 90 MINUTES WHEN YOU COULD HAVE BEEN SLEEPING YOU FOOL.
  • Go ahead. Don’t spend $10/day on Max Pass. I will. And I’ll get double the FastPasses (plus get to feel superior about understanding what my time is worth).
  • Mickey pretzels are not good. Mickey Ice Cream Bars only seem good because it is hot in Orlando.
  • Germany is the best pavilion.
  • Seven Dwarfs Mine Train is worth no more than a 25 minute wait.
  • Peter Pan’s Flight is worth even less than that.It’s great that Magic Kingdom is getting more licensed restaurants.
  • Lots of things that you remember as being better when you were younger only seem that way because that’s how you remember it.
  • Nostalgia is very profitable.
  • I’m aware of how weird it is for an adult to love Disney theme parks.
  • Get the best service possible at restaurants simply by ordering alcohol.
  • Sleeping Beauty is the most forgettable princess.
  • Epcot is the worst park for kids and the best park for adults.
  • Parades are alright. Waiting over an hour for a parade is insanity.
  • The real terrorists are people who don’t stop farting in the standby line.
  • the more people you add to a group on a Disney trip, the less enjoyable it becomes.
  • The Happiest Place on Earth needs to have at least 2-ply toilet paper.
  • Just because it’s expensive, it doesn’t make it ok to be rude to cast members.
  • The main villains inside a Disney park are grossly inflated prices and tour groups full of spoiled, rude, not-properly-supervised teens.
  • The Muppets are the most underrated IP Disney has in the parks.
  • I feel like Beverley is supposed to be a palate cleanser to be sipped in-between the other soda pops at Club Cool but nobody else seems to get that.
  • Mission: Space – Orange exists to make people puke and sell more Sprite in the parks because who buys Sprite anyways?
  • There should be a 2nd Starbucks at the opposite end of every park. Not because I want Macchiatos. But because it just makes good business sense.
  • Trader Sam’s needs a fastpass.
  • The credit card bill you receive the month after you get home is the real life equivalent of a Marvel movie’s post-credits scene.
