Cringeworthy Things We Don’t Want To Admit We Do in Disney World, Too

Disney fans can be cringey.

HOLD UP. Before you get mad at us, we’re totally including ourselves in this category as well! From the words and phrases we use to the way we behave in the parks, sometimes we’re an unusual breed of fans. And today, we’re opening up and admitting to the cringeworthy things that we totally do in Disney World!

Take a Million Photos

We’ll be the first to admit that we take WAY more photos than the average person in Disney World. And typically when we’re doing it, it’s for our jobs. However, we’ve also been known to take an excessive number of Disney pics when visiting for fun…much to the annoyance of our family and friends.

And will we ever look at those 37 pictures of Spaceship Earth again? Maybe not. But can we bring ourselves to delete them and clear up space in our photo library? Absolutely not! It’s just a hazard of being a Disney fan.

Wear Ears Just For the Pics

Minnie ears are an iconic part of a Disney vacation, but we’d be lying if we said that we didn’t sometimes find them uncomfortable. Not all pairs are created equal and some are just downright annoying to wear for 13-hour park days.

So maybe, yes, we’ve packed a pair of ears on our bag in the past just to take them out and put them on for photos. Because they complete the outfit! And then, maybe, we also stowed them away immediately afterward and didn’t take them out again. Because we’re only human.

Get Snacks Just for the Pics

And speaking of doing things just for the pics — we’ve done our fair share of ordering just for the TikTok or the Instagram post. You see something online and it’s just too photogenic to resist, so you have to snap that perfect pic to show all your followers!

And unfortunately, sometimes those snacks, drinks, or meals aren’t quite as delicious as they look. We’ve definitely been left wishing that we ordered the yummy thing over the pretty thing a few times in the past.

Get Overly Competitive With Friends (And Strangers)

We’ll be honest — rides like Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin and Toy Story Mania can bring out the absolute WORST in people. And by people…we mean us. We’re just too competitive for our own good!

Toy Story Mania

We’ve had our fair share of competitive showdowns with friends and family, as well as strangers, on these rides in the past. When it comes to Buzz, you’ve got to know which targets to hit and accuracy is important. But when you’re riding Toy Story Mania, it’s all about the speed — and if we scored higher than the small child sitting next to us and felt a little bit better about ourselves because of it…well that’s our business.

Spend An Excessive Amount On “Useless” Souvenirs

And finally, we’ve got to talk about our spending habits. We’ve definitely spent way too many hours of our lives inside Disney gift shops and WAY too much money as a result of those hours. Unfortunately, some of those purchases never see the light of day.

It’s easy to convince yourself that you need another Loungefly, pair of ears, or t-shirt when you’re in the heat of the moment. Because of this, we’ve found ourselves spending a lot of money on things we ONLY use when we go to the parks. (We’re sure you can probably relate!)

So there you go — the cringeworthy Disney things that we definitely do. We promise, we’re normal Disney fans just like you are!
