Well then, allow me to be the first to offer you a warm* welcome. The Official Marsupial Welcoming Committee will probably be along some time soon to welcome you properly.

*By warm I actually mean incredibly hot**.
**By incredibly hot I actually mean that you probably want to move out of the first you are now standing in.

How appropriate, I give them fire and you give them a marshmallow to toast over it.

I most certainly did not give them a marshmallow!

I gave them a marshmellow. Big difference!*


*This is, in fact, a running gag I've had for years now. If anyone is curious, I'll tell the story behind it sometime.

Either way I still set them on fire. I really do apologize for that captainkidd, I didn't mean to.

As a frequent guest of WDW I have to say, this is my biggest pet peeve. I can't stand people that take flash pics on rides, especially POTC. What I would love to see is a CM get on the speaker and point out the person snapping the shots and say "Yes, you in the red shirt - Could you please stop taking flash photos?"
Better yet, just meet them at the off-load and beat them with a crowbar. Hey, I can dream.

Glad to have you here, kidd!

Thanks all.

I have thought of the crowbar idea. I've also wondered if getting the flashers attention by splashing a little Pirate water on them might help, but given that I listen to the "keep your hands and legs inside the boat" spiel, that won't work.

Welcome dude.

Oh, and by the way regulars, I'm back. I've been having computer problems, but I'm finally on a crash course to normality again.

:D:

Next time the SGs start taking flash pictures, I dare a CM to pull a Patti Lupone rant as observed in this video where she stops a show:

:mad: STOP TAKING FLASH PICTURES RIGHT NOW! WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE????

LOL
