Ok, so on a thread where adults discuss Star Wars and dissect it over and over again, we are ready to draw the line at adults discuss theme park rides?

Seeing 25 new posts and excitedly thinking news broke or a trailer just dropped, only to discover grownups arguing about theme park ride discussions, who has been to a theme park, who is allowed to talk about theme parks, what constitutes a theme park, being disappointed in threads about theme parks, considering forming a sub-committee to pursue the validity of a theme-park-only thread, wondering (but also knowing) if I'm one of the "same five people" being referred to when it comes to theme parks, and ultimately talking about theme park rides, might actually be more disappointing than discovering it's all just a ridiculous political argument.TCTTS said:
Forget the adults-discussing-theme-parks thing. That's not the part I find annoying. Rather, it's that the vast majority of people reading this thread don't go to these parks or ride these rides. It's only a handful of people who do, and every so often it can get annoying when, for like a day or two, the conversation is completely dominated by nothing but theme park talk from five people, having essentially the same conversation they had two months ago. That's ALL I'm saying, and it doesn't seem like a big ask to maybe start a theme park thread for all Disneyland/Disney World discussion, since people inventively start talking about all the other rides, and their park experiences as a whole. But clearly I'm in the minority, so whatever. Go for it. Just don't get all in a huff when people mention, from time to time, that they find it annoying.
Both of those are the correct pronunciations though. (The creator of the gif prounounces it jif.)heddleston said:
People who say "aytee aytee" probably pronounce gif like its a brand of peanut butter.

JFC.
May I never desecrate the sacred theme park discussion again! All glory be to thee, Walt Disney!
Forgive me!
No, b/c there was obviously an ancient Jedi/Sith war, a clone war, a rebellion war, and then a resistance war!Decay said:
And another thing.
This is only one war, and lots of stars are in the galaxy. Shouldn't it be STARS WAR?
Hold up, are you implying that... Greedo shot first?heddleston said:
But the creator of Star Wars also made Han shoot first. So im not gonna hold that logic up. Plus that pronounciation was already taken by the peanut butter. its gotta get its own.
They're simply different theaters of the same war. We didn't call each front a different war in WW2 did we? Wait we did kinda. Well ***** I still contend this is simply the Stars Warredline248 said:No, b/c there was obviously an ancient Jedi/Sith war, a clone war, a rebellion war, and then a resistance war!Decay said:

edit to add: I suppose there was a Trade War in episode 1

It's always been @@. I've literally never not heard it called that until very recently with this revisionist history bull**** about aytee-aytee. However the AT-ST is pronounced is irrelevant because it was an afterthought until ROTJ.GreasenUSA said:Haha, well I will defer to the more knowledgeable, but I've never heard someone pronounce it "@ @"double aught said:That someone was correct.GreasenUSA said:
wait, someone thought you pronounced it "at-at"? just said that out loud and couldn't stop laughing.
No offense to Luke, but IDGAF what he says regarding AT-ATs.YouBet said:
Also, Mark Hamill says it's @@.
I am proudly in both camps. The man who says "Aaron Judge had three RBI last night" is a pretentious person I want no part of.redline248 said:
Those who say "at at" are probably the same people who put an s at the end of RBI
What if it's "That New York City Shrek had 3 RBI last night?"double aught said:I am proudly in both camps. The man who says "Aaron Judge had three RBI last night" is a pretentious person I want no part of.redline248 said:

Regarding the theme park discussions, it is not like posters are discussing It's A Small World or Peter Pan's Flight. They are typically asking/talking about Star Wars Land and all the things to do, see, eat, and drink there. With comparative references to similar attractions such as the Avatar thrown in.
Peter Pan's flight is actually my favorite ride at Magic Kingdom. If you look over your shoulder when you go past the Big Ben part, there is a hidden mickey in the clock that opens up quite briefly!Cinco Ranch Aggie said:
