Do You Kiss Your Mother With That Mouth?

[Syndrome]

Mr. Syndrome joined me last night in Epcot; we did a last ride on Soarin', then joined the mass closing-time exodus. He decided to run into Mousegear while I headed to Guest Relations to leave compliments for a couple of CMs (kudos to Lisa at Test Track and Richard at Soarin'!). I made a wrong turn and was over near the area where you'd cut through to Ellen's and Mission Space, which of course was roped off by a couple of CMs who were herding the crowd towards the entrance. Mr. White Trash started arguing with them because he wanted to use the restroom in that area. They politely told him it was closed and tried to point him to the nearest open one, but he let loose with a string of expletives that nearly made my ears melt. Heck, I think even my truck driver brother would have been shocked.

Mr. Trash is screaming about the f-ing CMs loud enough for people to hear back in World Showcase, and then I see three women pushing a stroller and approaching him...apparently his entourage. One says, "I thought you were going to the bathroom," and he screams back, "Yeah, these m-fers won't let me! They're mfing a-holes!" and so on. So she hollers back, "I gotta pee! I gotta pee! What do you mean the m-fing bastards won't let us?" This went on for a while till they finally headed off towards the front, presumably to an open restroom...hell, in the time they stood there screaming obsenities they could have been to the front of the park already.

I felt bad for all the people with children around them who were subjected to their verbal pollution, but most of all I pitied their own kid in the stroller. Can you imagine growing up with that as your parent? Of course, the poor kid might not make adulthood...daddy has some obvious anger issues and will probably beat him to death when he runs out of beer and crack someday.

Hmm, a good question, how do we break the SG "circle of life!"

[albino_pygmy]

I think go in the way of Pinnochio and have some "theme park" that draws in SG's and then lock them in there and turn them into a bunch of a-holes, oh wait, nevermind. That's Disney :p:

[Big Wallaby]

I don't understand how they get to thinking that calling us m-fers will make them more effective. It certainly doesn't make them look more intelligent. My wife deals with this sometimes at her pool, as well, where the previous guard was lax on safety rules, so then when she comes in and asks that they follow the rules, they can get really, really angry. She's had several complaints from guests to her managers for making them follow the rules. Fortunately, none of those were taken seriously.

We get this kind of thing in Fantasyland for the fireworks all the time. There's a restroom that's closed because fireworks are launched off the building that the restrooms are in. People come up and want to use the restroom, we tell them that they're closed and they argue with us. They argue with us for far longer than it would take to get to the next closest restroom and then say that if they don't make it, it's our fault.

I have been cursed at several times when I had the character's line closed. I don't say anything, but I do feel like telling them "it's not my fault you waited til the last second to see ____".

Is this the Kings and Queens bathrooms at Matternhorn Way?? I worked that section quite a few times when it was stationed by Tomorrowland.

[ktulu]

The King and Queens bathroom was roped off on our last trip. My wife, who was pregnant, needed to go. She asked, the CM was nice and said yes. SG asked, CM responded that she was peeing for two. The SG stomped off. This was before the fireworks were to start. We thanked the CM profusely, but forgot to get his name.

In response to the subject:

In my defense, it IS the only mouth I have :D:

[hobie16]

Depends. ;)

That response is the gift that keeps on giving. :D:
