(I have actually written a Studios no-strings for Test Track once, but that was a pretty major service recovery situation, and before I even wrote it, I called EP Guest Relations to tell them what I was about to do and get their blessings)
Managers have told us not to specify anymore because it can be limiting if we specify one and it goes 101. They did have a lot of people writing fastpasses with "Not Soarin'" on it. Managers stopped that as well.

Or go over to the Tiki Room and listen to the entire exit speil by Iago. He mentions "I guess I'll fly over to the Hall of Presidents for a nap".

And the approved script for the Jungle Cruise includes the option for the very line you used (as I understand it..This one I have no direct evidence for). So using humor, even at the light hearted expense of another attraction is obviously not something that is frowned on by Disney. Of course a true cut down of another attraction in a mean, negative way should be avoided. But jokes about Small World, Hall of Presidents, Pirates, etc have a long standing in the parks.

Then I hope that CM does NOT ride my bus. I use a Small World line on every run.

"Folks, Please look around you and gather up all of your personal belongings. If you brought it aboard the bus, IT IS a personal belonging. This includes Hats, sunglasses, Cell Phones, Cameras, knapsacks, backpacks, fanny packs, shirts, shoes, socks, souvineers and small children. If you accidently leave something behind, contact guest services. A Cast Member will be more than happy to assist you in attempting to locate your items. In the event of your small children however, you will be responsible to reclaim them, tomorrow morning, at It's a Small World!"

I've always had a joke about Small World. The only joke where I cast anything in a bad light is my meeting Mortimer Mouse, Dippity Dawg and Rover at Universal Studios joke. Oh, and if I had a guest with Universal or Sea World shirts, I would ask how they dare bring such contraband into the parks.

Sorry, Notatourist. I'm pretty sure you're the type of team member there that if everyone there was like you, I couldn't make jokes about USO.


My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?

That's why you don't write a fastpass for Test Track.

Very true, I love how people will complain to us about other attractions breaking down. Like I have the power to fix it! It's hard enough keeping my attraction up and running. I would say we had three or so late openings because the PAs/Interphones were not working. That really sucked...

I just remembered one from my WDW trip in July.

SG: Where is Todayland?
CM: We don't have a Todayland, we have Tomorrowland though.
SG: No, I alreadly saw Tomorrowland, I want to go to Tomorrowland.

I don't remember the rest of it but I think the SG might have asked about Yesterdayland.

Wouldn't Todayland BE the park of his choice?
