It is so old when guests put on 3D glasses and go, "Am I in 3D?!?!?" Like I haven't heard that a hundred times a day. Or say "To Infinitey and Beyone" on Astro Orbitor!! Astro doesn't have anything to do with Buzz!! Aarrrggghhh!! :twisted:

Geez... it gets really old after awhile
I'm 6'5", and I feel you -- though being tall has a lot of advantages (especially when watching parades!). It's worth the occasional dumb comment.

Brad Garrett (of "Everyone Loves Raymond," a show I never watched) used to do standup, and he had a whole set on the stupid comments people make when you're tall. His snappy answers:

[INDENT]"Do you play basketball?" Yeah, right, like you'd say to a short person, "Do you play miniature golf?"
"How's the weather up there?" Are you kidding? Would you go up to a fat person and say, "How's the weather around there? There's a cold front coming across your left thigh!" :D: :D: [/INDENT]

Actually, I do play miniature golf! It's fun! :)

When doing Guest Control on Main Street for the Parades, we have to wear the Indiana Jones costume. So when guests approached me around Parade time and asked "What is everyone waiting for?" I started replying "This is actually the line for Indiana Jones" and would occasionally add "The line starts back there, from which point it is a 4-hour wait." I'd try to keep a straight face and watch their reaction, but I always ended up telling them what was going on.

One time I was walking down Main Street with a fellow CM when a girl came to us to ask a question. We stopped and listened. She looked at me and asked "Do you know where the restroom is?" I said "Yes" and kept walking. I looked back to see the CM's jaw hanging almost to the floor and the guest's shocked/confused expression. That one made me laugh afterward.
