Language Barrier

Post by SpeedFreak » Tue Jun 30, 2009 8:19 pm

So I was on the Epcot monorail platform today, and I have a few groups waiting for the next train. Anyway, I was standing in front of the chained off special gate to prevent a certain special group of people from cutting under it... again... but that's an entirely different rant.

Anyway, directly to my left is a group of 6, 4 children and 2 adults, all of which happen to be black. At the gate next to them is a group of about 12 people, who are hispanic and perhaps a Brazilian tour group. From my shaky Spanish, I think they were talking about the monorails they had seen, and said something about Monorail Black. After they start talking about that, I see one of the younger children in that group of 6 pull on his mother's leg and say, "Mommy, the Mexicans are racist, they said 'negro'". :eek:

I got a pretty good laugh out of that. A few minutes after everyone was gone, but a laugh none-the-less.


Stupidity is not a handicap, stand elsewhere.

Obviously, they knew it was the special cab and knew they belonged in it. Tell 'em next time they are a different kind of special, the type that gets a personal drop-off at pylon 199.
