But there are degrees of narcissism and rudeness. I'm certainly not perfect, but by the same token I can't say I've ever throttled anyone because I didn't get my way. I'm very conscious of rudeness because of the way I was raised: being rude was a BIG no-no in our house. I can't stand to see it in other people, and I will call people on it (obviously).

Originally Posted By Mickeymouseclub It is the middle of the night and I have just had a flashback or two about the points you have been trying to make,Nikki.

I promise to not ignore that behavior. I think in the future it should be immediately reported to a moderator on LP.I guess I am eating those words of mine from the post in #245. Please accept my apology and remember you are better than any stupid comment on LP no matter what or who said it.
Originally Posted By NikkiLOVESMickey Thank you, Mickeymouseclub. I don't take any comments to heart; believe me, I don't lose any sleep because I'm not in Spirit's inner circle. However, I can't sit by while he lords his opinion over people as though they are insignificant.

I don't agree with everyone all the time, either. But... Can we stop hearing about it? Not trying to be rude, but you've made your point perfectly clear, I'm assuming it will be acted on in the future, and that's that. There's really nothing more to be discussed, and to do here, save for more stirring of the pot, more agitation, and further uncomfort to the laid back dynamic these wonderful boards have. So.... Who likes Dole Whips?

Originally Posted By EPCOT Explorer ^ I'm in Dec. too! Go have a Dole Whip at the Polynesian, and just relax in the Lobby. One of the more relaxing and "WDW" experiences we have. And yeah, there will be a ton up in the MK. Especially Main Street.
Originally Posted By disneyfreaksk Disney is fantastic no matter which park you are at. I find myself comparing the parks, but then stop. Best to enjoy each individually and the magic they bring. I just got my annual pass to WDW. Any regular attendees? I used to meet awesome people when I attended DL meets.
Originally Posted By Christi22222 Funny thing about Dole whips.... I actually don't like them! But they are still exactly the kind of unique thing I like having in the parks and knowing that folks come just for those specail sorts of treats you can only get at Disney.
Originally Posted By EPCOT Explorer This...this.. this...distaste for Dole Whips. I can't fathom it. LOL. I like that about it, too. It's something you only get there. Though, I did find some Pineapple Soft Serve a few weeks ago... ..but it wasn't the same. LOL
Originally Posted By Christi22222 Well it's not like they make me gag! lol!! I just don't like them as much as other frozen treats. (Can I stay? )
