Hooray for rotten weeks ending with a please-God-let-it-be-good weekend. This here's your all day, all night Saturday Thread. If anyone's around, that is.
There was a brand of microwave french fries, had a commercial that had something to do with a ufo. Came in a red box in 3 packs. You cooked them for 2 minutes, let them set for 2 minutes and you ended up with a very small portion of the best fucking french fries ever. At least I thought so. They might still make them but we don’t get them here anymore. There’s other microwave french fries out there but none as good as those were.
YES!!!! I loved those!! When I was younge,r I had em almost every night until they were discountinued, to which I’m still very bitter about.
It was still the best SNL ever, even though Conspiracy Theory Rock was nowhere to be seen (but there were 24 other awesome shorts too).

Does anyone remember those juice things that came in like an accordian type bottle? Kind of like the bendy part of a bendy straw. I have no idea what they were. I just have a vague memory of drinking them and then me and my sister playing with them in the bathtub.
Were those Squeeze-Its? I don’t remember what Squeeze-Its were.

Oh yea, and it was Star Wars weekend at MGM Studios, but I had to leave early. Tragic.

Rebecca, I’m going to Disney soon and demand to hear more of your trip.

Had I known it was T.V. Funhouse on SNL I would have stayed home instead of going to watch "shes the man" at the cheapie theater. Evidently its based on shakespear so I’m at least going to count it as a culturle event.

Disneyland is the best, especially now that Space Mountain is re-opened and New and Improved! Even faster I hear!

I officially decided to never go to Disneyland/world when I heard that if you die in the park, they carry you out to the parking lot before the coroner can legally declare you dead. Since its the happiest place on Earth, no one is allowed to actually die there.
At first I thought it was just a silly urban legend, but upon closer research it indeed appears to be true. I have no idea why that unsettles me so.

Oh yeah, Squeeze Its were those juice bottle things. I remember them now. They were pretty good, all cherry with it.

I, too, want more Disney info.
I’m going for my honeymoon in October, and am already tingling with excitement.
Matt- the impending (whenever the hell you go) article will serve as a roadmap of sorts.
when did they stop making Squeeze-Its? That little bit of info just totally ruined my day. Ok…it’s not quite that bad, but I’m still disappointed.

Matt, I emailed you some stuff about Disney. I was gonna just post it, but I ended up writing more than I expected.

I hope everyone had a great weekend. I did watch SNL as well and I haven’t seen the ambigiously gay duo in a while, and I don’t see them enough. I like the end with a fake crying jimmy fallon. That should be a once a season thing, a whole show that is a cartoon takeover. I think that would help the show.
I don’t remember the lego cubbies!! That rawks, I have heard of the biggest M & M candy store, with tubes that you can fill up a little brown bag with ANY color you can think of MM candy wise. I hopefully will go there sometime in my life. Now THAT’S a family vacation. F.ckin grand canyon can’t compare with candy tubes.
Regarding the rumor about not being able to die on Disney property, I don’t think it’s true. Two years ago a character playing Pluto was run over by a parade float and died at the scene. Also, in 1999 another employee fell off the now extinct Skyway platform 40 feet to his death…. Kind of reminds me of that episode of Mary Tyler Moore when she goes to the funeral of Chuckles the Clown (who got crushed to death by an elephant) and can’t stop laughing. It’s obviously tragic, but far too bizarre not to laugh at.
Anyways, there are many more documented cases of people dying on Disney property. I think it’s an urban legend. Urban legends live on because people want to believe them. I mean, it is a great urban legend, it would be super creepy if it were true, but I doubt it is. Just my opinion, though.
