Glad to hear it!

Star wars has multiple big attractions, plus a lot of smaller things to do.
Slinky Dog Coaster in Toy Story is maybe the longest line in the park
Runaway Railway is solid.
Indiana Jones is still there!

The meltdowns are before the harness goes on. Maybe it's a weird setup for them that they're not used to?

It's a cool ride, though.

Studios runs the triple and while you should beat them, takes that extra practice time the week before and in the offseason.

It was just getting on the motorcycle seat that triggered them. Not sure why.

But good call on easing in with Animal Kingdom. Outside the safari, it's very casual just walking to see stuff.

Forgot how old your kids are, but one small warning: for some reason kids can melt down getting on the Banshee ride, even though it's really tame. Both of my kids did it when they were 5 and saw others around that age act the same.

The new State Farm ad is somehow going to be even worse.

Our mantra if the kids saw something that didn't fit into "the plan" was:

"Yes, but later"

I'm still down for Transformers (show or movie)

Ethan "Candycorn Speed" Lavery @ethanlavery.bsky.social · 16h

First time I beat Chaos, entire party was down, and my Red Wizard was hunched over and just using a sword at that point.

Maybe the happiest I've ever been to beat a game.

Fickell to Cincy
Satterfield to Penn State
Franklin to Wisconsin.

There! Now nobody's happy.

Every once in a while, a family member comes in and drops something off without saying a word.

No no, I enjoy doing this. Happy to help and do my part. No, please, let me scrape the dinner that I made for you but you didn't eat off of the plate for you. No I'm not crying in front of David Harbour.

Princess Mononoke verges a little bit high on the violence side, maybe a tween movie.

Grave of the Fireflies...no

So son, sit down, we need to talk about a few things. You're going to encounter drugs in the world, but I want to know how much you already know. Do you know what Prog Rock is?

"Yes"

Oh good, you know about Jon Anderson. We can skip a lot then.
