Biplane posted:When I worked at EPCOT, on our first orientation day (what Disney calls "Traditions") the example we were given was, even if a guest falls into the lake you are not allowed to touch them to try to help them, call emergency services and hope for the best. The fear of lawsuits is that strong. TBF, they've been sued by people over the supposed transgressions of costumed cast, so that fear is justified.

I dono about kids these days but when I was 12 I was still sniggering at the word penis let alone being able to identify my sexuality beyond "I held hands with [Name] and it was awesome. She came to by birthday party and gave me a card." Hell kids were still singing "[Name] and [Other Name] sitting in a tree."

You probably didn't use those exact terms but that's all it means.

Back when I was in college I tried to make a sandwich from a loaf of bread that I stored next to a pack of dryer sheets. Even though the bread was bagged, it still tasted like I took a big bite out of Bounce.

I've lectured on those topics before, and 100% believe that is something a new film teacher / grad student would say during their first lecture to a class. The follow up to that statement is: "The students stared back at me with blank expressions, then one asked if that would be on the exam." Edit: Missed that it's grade school. Still applies.

For some reason I found myself reading a Fark thread about NY cops and their back-turning protests, and I found this gem:quote:A new bouncer at my regular bar and I were chatting about this that and the other thing, and as we did, a fire truck rolled by, and I made a comment along the lines of "Man, firefighters are the real heroes. None of the authority, all the (or more) risk to life and limb, and you'll never hear about them "accidentally" killing someone for no real reason. Firefighters are basically the only public employees I can maintain any respect for."

If it really happened, he would have got shut down somewhere in his monologue, probably after the "reinforces my sentiments" because if he already thinks you're an rear end in a top hat, why not prove him right? E: no wait maybe the point was that some cops are really good people because the cop let him talk all that poo poo and then just kinda nodded and moved away from him instead of (insert cool term for beating the guy up).
