What a funny story this is

So I heard a story a couple of days ago that I meant to share with everyone, but haven't had the time until now.

You are going to love this one, I promise. :)

As you know, I live in Orange County. Near Anaheim.

Near Disneyland.

I was born and raised in California, and have been to Disneyland an innumerable amount of times. It really is mostly the same as it was when I was a kid, but a few things have changed...

The "submarine ride", which used to be all dark and creepy, is now the "Finding Nemo" ride...

....lame.....

The "Pirates of the Caribbean" ride, which used to be my favorite ride, has undergone a "facelift", if you will. There used to be an area of the ride that was supposed to be a scene in a tavern, and there were about 4 pirates chasing 4 pretty girls around, and then toward the end of said scene, you saw a fat woman chasing a scrawny little pirate around. Way funny.

Not so much though to some stupid women's lib, I have nothing better to do, group, who said that the scene degraded women, especially big women, that they were trying to say big women had to chase a man to get one...

For fuck's sake....

It's an amusement park ride!!!!

So they changed it.

Bullshit.....

So now to the funny part....

I've been hearing for the last few years, other countries refer to most of us as "fat Americans", because the US has such a large obesity issue.

Man, did they get proven right.

So a couple of days ago, Disneyland announced they were going to be temporarily shutting down one of the most popular rides in the park, "It's a Small World". They have been having issues with the ride stopping in the middle a lot of times. For those of you who have never been there, it is basically a boat ride, seats about 16 people per. It just takes you through representations of different countries, all the while hearing that damn song about 500 times throughout your journey, even sung in the other countries' languages. There is even a Netherlands room.

This is where the ride keeps stopping.

This is the most shallow water area in the ride.

But they figured out what the problem was.....the weight on the boats can no longer be accommodated....

So they are building new boats.

Wider boats.

To accommodate all the fat Americans who visit the park.lol So the boats will stop getting stuck.

Walt Disney is rolling over in his grave.....
