Stupid Guest Tricks

at DLR there was the Penguin lady, name given because she was fat and waddled like a penguin. But whenever she came to the park she HAD to be the first one on peter pan at park opening otherwise she would throw the biggest bitch fit ever seen by a human. She would also constantly argue with cast members and stubborn as a mule she would throw more fits if she was proven wrong. Banned from the park and hadn't seen her in my last months working at DL.

The bubble twins. They're not creepy or weird but they're actually pretty cool, 2 elderly ladies who hand out little bottles of bubbles. Mostly seen around northern part of disneyland.

LOL, you should read the boards, they are active members here...

You probably hadn't noticed yet, but the Bubble Ladies are regulars here and are well known to all of us. (even those of us who haven't had the pleasure of meeting them in person.) Check around in the fairly recent threads and you will find their report of their recent trip to WDW.

Sounds like stalkers or mad bombers to me. Has security run a full psych profile on them and attempted to get DNA samples? Should the bag check staff limit them to three ounces of "bubble" liquid per visit?

The Bubble Ladies. :D: Check the thread about their recent trip to WDW made possible by many very generous posters here. They are the epitome of what Disneyland is about! We heart the Bubble Ladies!

Elderly????? That would make me elderly as well, since I am their age and I am by no means old YET!

Elderly? Judging by the pictures I have seen, that are..What, 38 or 39? Of course you can't be more than 30 or 31?

(hehehehehehe)

Yes. Exactly! I think that what we see as Friends POV's are a little different from those of other CM's is because we seen how certain behaviors from such people can affect those we know. Having a heads up on various guests that have frightened or agitated CM's in the past is a good way to help them deal with them if they were ever to be encountered again. CM's will know how to act and what to expect. I'm certain that if Snow met that man again she would be able to react accordingly and remain in character. If he likes showing affection she can greet him and present her hand for kiss, that way both are satisfied - he giving a kiss and she being touched comfortably. I don't see why having a consistent caretaker is bad thing at all as well. I had a group of severely challenged people come visit Minnie in her gazebo one day and it was obvious they were very excited to be seeing her. But they were all divided into small groups with a chaperone looking out over each. It worked out wonderfully. The person watching over was able to tell them, "Okay, that's enough - Minnie needs to see the next person." or "Don't hug her too tight, she's only a little mouse and you are bigger than she is." They all acted accordingly, followed directions, were very courteous! Certainly much nicer and more behaved than what you described from both Linda and the Towel baby couple.

Personally, I'm kinda having a hard time wrapping my mind around Towel Baby couple and that Linda woman as they seem so comical in their behaviors described- that they act that way for attention and laughs, a lot like Borat.

I can assure you that they are not doing it to be funny. Their thinking is not the same as ours. While the idea of them having a helper is good in theory, it just wouldn't work. Aides cost money, which is something a lot these people don't have much of. It costs more than an AP to WDW. But don't think that only entertainment has to deal with these people. Attractions gets the brunt of people who have difficulty with instructions presented to them. Or they don't understand that they can't just get out in the middle of an attraction. The best thing we can do is to treat them with all of our kindness and respect, and also view their actions with a grain of salt. They are not doing these things to be malicious, they are doing it because they don't know any better.
