How about if some boob posted that evildoers had just attacked the MK or blown up a Disney bus? Would you think that was OK too? Maybe I should just leave the LP ... I shouldn't have to subject myself to stupidity on Santa's day!

A fireball was launched into the air, and several fire trucks responded. From any angle in DtD or Saratoga Springs, it looked like DQ had blown up because of the proximity. Unless you were on 535 (Beuna Vista Drive) it looked like directly behind DQ had plumes of flames and smoke. It was put out eventually, but because of the chemicals burned for a decent amount of time - thankfully due to the process the entire section of the parking lot was closed off.

Originally Posted By 999HAUNTS Hey, I was in DQ on 12/21, so I swear it wasn't me who had anything to do with anything. And that's the truth! I did, however, create a pretty hot looking rollercoaster, so that may be the fire you're pertaining to.

Under certain circumstances it could even be dangerous. Ultimately, though, it's just stupid.

I'm sorry you don't like my opinion about this. But the OP shouldn't have been posted and the thread should have been closed. And that's my opinion!

And the only reason why this is a 'big deal' is because people are choosing to make it so. I don't know how many times I can say the OP was irresponsible ... you can think otherwise, but it doesn't make you right. Imagine if someone had said the same thing about your home, workplace, child's school etc ... I don't know how anyone with a brain can not see why you don't say things like this without confirmation. That's it.
