A place to be entertained. Videos, jokes, games, and more.
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Will someone have a BIG parade and such for us when we're in our 80s?

LOL that's because not a single one of us has her budget!
...then again knowing the crew around here we'd just buy out Disney for a night and rob a liquor store to supply more fun for said Disney buy-out ;)

Who knew walking
was so hard?
Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

The one time I fell down a full flight of stairs (I regularly fell
up :rolleyes :) , I had walked through a bit of water in brand new shoes, then took one stop at the top of a waxed tiled staircase. I've often wondered how models manage to walk so well in brand new shoes on such shiny surfaces!

It's bound to be hard when one is wearing such high heels with no traction on what looks like slick surfaces. Combine that with the way models walk and the raised runway they are on it is a disaster waiting to happen.
Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long.
We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious…
and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

Actually, spike heels grip better than flats, in my experience. Or maybe I just got the right brand when I got spikes, because my wedding shoes the part under the ball of my foot was kind of slick. Never slid around in them, though. They were much more of a challenge to walk in when the photographer decided we needed to walk across this wet lawn for a picture -- the heels kept sinking in!

Oh man, Been there and Did that!
I went with "Prom Mentality" at my wedding. Pictures over? DITCH THE SHOES! I ran around in neon purple fuzzy slippers under my wedding dress right after the "First Dances" part was over.
Screw heels. It's my wedding, I can do what I want! ;)
