I remember the first time I went in 1971, we had to wear a dress uniform (dark blue wool!!) Yeah, it got a little hot!

No wonder you're grumpy.

Hmm, never considered that!

Mostly it comes from my admiration of Grumpy and his world views!

Yeah, but it was worth it to get 50 cents off main gate admission!

I don't know, we got a ticket book with admission, all the "A" through "E" tickets, and round trip bus from San Diego base for $16.50 (plus a ticket for lunch at the park!)

(wearing a dress uniform was mandatory at the time)

I wondered what kind of parent would permit this teen to go out dressed like that. I then found out...

The girls 300 pound mother came sashaying around the corner jiggling like jello in clothes which appeared to be painted on her, in brilliant shades of fluorescent color. She was definitely putting 20 pounds into a 10 pound sack. Picture one of those highway safety barrels with arms and legs.

Shudder.

OMG! I am laughing so hard here!

As a fat woman, I sincerely apologize for her lack of taste and the effect it had upon your eyes and psyche. Most of us are quite aware of our bodies and make attempts to dress in a tasteful and socially decent manner. I place this woman in the same category with the thinner "ladies" that dress in skirts short enough to make even a gynecologist blush. I am a huge proponent of body acceptance, but I also recognize that there are some things us larger ladies are just not meant to wear. If you see me in a park, it's usually in a baggy peasant shirt and loose pants (the ones with tons of pockets). I just like to be comfy and as unobtrusive as I can. Even I would have been appalled by that kind of dress.

I went to a Business College. The dress code was white shirts, Dress Slacks, Tie and Sports Jacket. No air conditioning and no blood flow to the brain due to the tie. Ah, good times! I think I have worn a tie only about 7 times since then and that has been mostly to funerals. Oh, and once at my wedding. Other than that I think that whomever came up with the concept of ties, should be hung with one.

Yesterday, I was at Toontown with my friend, waiting for the train back to Main Street. A father walked up with a shirt. At first glance, it looked like the Mountain Dew symbol, but it actually had 4 words. "Mount and Do Me." I just gave him the dirtiest look I could.
