WDW….the hipster?

Maybe this is just me, but has anyone noticed how Disney World, more specifically, the Animal Kingdom, is kind of a hipster?
Why? Walt Disney first built Disneyland because he didn't want the environment of the typical amusement park of the day. Well, at Chester and Hester's Dino-rama in AK, there are several midway games that are typically found only at carnivals and amusement parks. I can't think of how many times I saw one at the carnivals in Nashville, or at any of the Six Flags parks. But, I never thought I would see one at WDW. But, it's one of those things that…works. It just kinda fit the theme. Totally ironic thing to do.
Well, for those that don't know, a hipster is a person who, among other dumb things, does stuff for the ironic value. Well, since Disney put these midway games in, isn't that kinda ironic, and hipster-like? And, now that I think about this, Toy Story MIDWAY Mania kinda is too, huh?
