You might be a Disney Addict ifRemember the old Jeff Foxworth comedy routines about “You might be a redneck if…”? I do!! Part of why they were so hilarious to me was because I live in the deep south and so many of them were TRUE (however, I have lived in other parts of the country and have found there are just as many red-necks y’all just call them something different).  (SIDE NOTE: I mostly write Disney World stuff. I’m sorry if that bothers you Disneyland folks, but I don’t know enough about your park to write about it with consistency).

So (once again) I was awakened with a post idea….

You might be a Disney addict if…

1. You are already planning your child’s (born or unborn) wedding at the Walt Disney World wedding pavilion. (complete with reception at Grand Floridian and horse-drawn princess carriage).


2. You have every seriously considered paying someone going on a Disney trip to bring you a Dole Whip or Turkey Leg back home.

3. You have at least one Christmas tree that has nothing but Disney Christmas ornaments on it.

4. You would never EVER marry someone who said they didn’t want to go to Disney World or Disneyland.

5. The majority of posts you regularly see on Facebook feeds (due to the new frequency of interaction policy) have something to do with Disney.

6. You’ve ever gotten into a serious argument about whether its more important to go get fast passes for Soarin’ or Test Track when first entering Epcot or Toy Story Mania vs Tower of Terror vs Rockin’ Rollercoaster at Hollywood Studios.

7. You’ve ridden in the single-rider line even though you were with a “party” of people. (Every man/woman/child for themselves.)

8. You watch the Disney Vacation Planning DVD’s even though you know every single tip they could offer you.

9. You have a Disney Visa that you pay off monthly just so you can use the points for food/ souvenirs in the park.

10. You have a SECOND Disney Visa that you use JUST to book vacation packages so you can get 6 months no-interest.

11. You would DIE to have your backyard chosen for “My yard goes Disney”.

12. You half hate/ half love Samantha Brown because she gets to go to Disney all the time.

13. You make your kids/ significant other/ family get up and watch the Disney Christmas Parade.

14. You know that the names on the windows on Main Street USA are almost all people who worked with Walt in planning Disney World.

15. You’ve ever thrown a coin to a yeti statue in the line for Expedition Everest.

16. You’ve encouraged someone going to WDW to try “Beverly” at Coke’s “Club Cool” because its… um…. delicious (snicker, snicker)

17. You know that if you wait too long to get ADR’s you don’t have a prayer of getting a table at O’hana (for dinner), Le Cellar (for anything), California Grille (during fireworks) or Cinderellas Royal Table.

18. You refuse to do the math on Disney Vacation Club vs how much you’ve spent in trips so far because you know it would make you weep.

19. You see a woman with a Disney tote bag or purse on the street in “the real world” and know exactly which store it came from.

20. Almost every hat or visor you own has a Disney character on it.

21. As SOON as you book your next trip you set a count-down widget somewhere on your computer or phone so you’ll always know “how many days till”.

22. One of your favorite things to do while at WDW or Disneyland is to take pictures on your cell phone and text (or upload them to facebook) your friends who AREN’T there with you!!! (come on, rubbing it in is half the fun!!)

23. You no longer notice the people in the park wearing fanny-packs.

24. You can do Animal Kingdom in 1/2 a day.

25. You have ever been jealous of the college kid working in the hot sun in a polyester outfit of some sort because “at least they work at DISNEY”.

26. You know how to make all 4 of the animal sounds at the Festival of the Lion King.

27. You know that Off Kilter has one heck of a bagpipes player.

28. You are seriously MAD that the child Chinese acrobats contract was not renewed.

33. You’ve seen at least one celebrity (and their tour guide) in the parks.

34. You have your own “secret spot” for parade viewing , fireworks & using the bathroom that you don’t want to share with anybody because then it will get busy.

36. You know the name of the “purple dragon” on the Imagination ride and when to hold your nose (and close your eyes)

  1. Re: #4 – It is well known among my friends and family that I would never ever accept a marriage proposal from ANYONE unless they got me a night in Cinderella’s Castle. That is the only, but unflinching, pre-requisite for my hand in marriage. 🙂

  2. Since October I’ve done 15 one day disney trips and have my 16th, 17th, and 18th planned for this upcoming week.

  3. Sleeping Beauty’s real name is Aurora but if you go visit her you can call her Briar Rose and she’ll bounce back saying that’s what Flora, Fauna, and Merrywether still like to call her. And at the parks Snow White’s prince is simply known as the “Snow Prince” but some sites call him Ferdinand (due to Shirley Temple saying that name at the Oscars when she presented Walt with the award but some people claim that she’s talking about Ferdinand the Bull) or Florian (that’s what the Disney Wiki told me).
    I may not be planning my unborn child’s wedding at the Wedding Pavilion quite yet but that’s cuz I’m still working on my own wedding! lol

  4. You have a Disney Q&A at the dinner table……”If you were at Disney right now, what ride would you be on?” or Your family has a guessing game on what the wait times are of certain rides, using your iPhone apps….but you’re at home.

  5. I am absolutely a Disney Addict(not that I needed this article to tell me that, since after December I will have been to Disney World 3 times in less than a year and a half lol)

  6. #21 is totally me. As soon as we set the date, the widget was downloaded and checked every day. As if the number would reduce greatly from the day before.

  7. I have often thought that about Samantha Brown!! Hate her because she gets to go all the time, but am really just jealous! What a great job she has!

  8. OMG I think I know I am a Disney Addict for sure. I answered yes to most of these. And the other ones I thought to my self I could see myself doing that. LOL..

  9. how about…if you continually watch the Christmas spectacular at MGM on your movies (after being there three years in a row)…

  10. We’re already planning our 2 month old daughter’s wedding at Disneyland. 🙂 And we were planning on it before she was born, too. Gotta get that wedding fund started up.

  12. I like this one
    29. You fully believe that a Mickey Mouse Ice Cream Bar really does taste better than a regular vanilla icecream “dipped” cone.

  13. Love it Love it Love it. I am sooooo Disney Addict and proud of it. Not planning my kids wedding yet but I have already gotten married at the Wedding Pavilion in 2007. I know everything you are talking about. Only one haven’t done and that is getting a hair cut at the barber shop but my 19 month old son will get his first hair cut there next week.
