Don’t I quite like thrill rides, but dislike people, so the idea of a park with lots of people and really, really dull sounding non-thrill rides where the queue is part of the ‘experience’ really not appeal? Hasn’t everything I’ve ever read about the park from Doctorow made it sound worse?

So, you also left Disneyland and took some shots of the lovely cultural institutions of The South?

As I belated watch House of Cards (approaching end of series 1), am I meant to get infuriated by how stupid most of these characters are? If I keep watching, will it get more or less annoying?

Isn’t the BBC version is great and better with repeat viewing? The U.S. version lost my interest at some point, and I haven’t ever gone back to it?

Didn’t I read the book the British series was based on a few years ago, and vaguely remember the 80s show?

How was the book? Doesn’t it look good? And wouldn’t I want to watch any of the three BBC series again before finishing the U.S. version?

Have you actually been, though? You recognize Cory’s not exactly a reliable witness (as with many things, his spin is very much his own), that even with the crowds there’s just something remarkable and unique to the parks unlike anything anywhere else, and that the rides are anything but dull, but rather fascinating gems of ride craftsmanship, created with a level of care and detail in story development, theming, timing, and styling far beyond any other rides elsewhere, which is why the parks are full of large numbers of people who all hate crowds but still go there, right? Am I perhaps biased since I grew up in SoCal and hit Disneyland a lot and grew up watching Disney movies/shows?
Didn’t Walt have a thing for the cultural institutions of The South?

Didn’t we already establish that I didn’t want to?
Doesn’t that sound dull? Do they spin you around and turn you upside down and the like?
Haven’t I always found Mickey Mouse and Goofy and the rest of those deathly dull?
Didn’t I grow up near(ish) Alton Towers, now famous for this?

The Spinning Teac-cups do, but beyond that? Do you think this is some sort of amusement park for thrill-ride fanboys to get their thrills on, fanboyishly?
Wasn’t I lucky enough to go to Disney World before they retired 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, Mission to Mars and the 1980s Carousel of Progress?

Doesn’t my oddest memory of Disneyland include a Weird Al sighting, where he was just sitting on a bench in the park? Didn’t one of my friends go a little bat shit and point at him going “Weird Al! Weird Al!” while he just smiled, nodded sheepishly, and waved at us? We’re past the statute of limitations for youthful indiscretions in the 1980’s right?
