You make some good points, MTW. While we generally try to be open-minded and not rule out something based on preconceived ideas, the sad fact is that we're always spending so much time going to our favorites that we rarely try anything new. Of course we've seen quite a bit of what WDW has to offer, but there are plenty more things we haven't seen or done yet. So I think on our next trip we're going to try a lot more new things.

I still have yet to experience all that France has to offer at World Showcase. Sad, I know. Maybe DF and I can spend a little more time there this next time since it will be our honeymoon and France should give us that "honeymoon" feeling we'll be looking for.

Well said! I am up for trying anything, no fears here, except for crowds ~ do not like crowds, can be in them, but want to get out of them as soon as possible. And clowns, not a fan of clowns, but I digress...It is still interesting to see what people wouldn't want to try and their reasoning for avoiding certain attractions...

Never need to rent a "sprite" boat for the lagoon. After working in watercraft and having to dodge them all the time, kinda lost its appeal.

Wow, we have those two things in common! I feel exactly the same way on both counts. 8-)

Put me on the list of anti-clowns! (with apologies to anyone on here who may be a professional clown... other than Jacca)

Jacca-type clowns are cool, it is the creepy ones with make-up that are not ok...Umm, Jacca, you don't wear make-up while you sit and type these jokes do you?!

I don't like clowns either. Also, I'd never wear that kind of makeup! Those suits would make my hips look big!!

I used to never like clowns or any of the characters for that matter...don't quite know why. I'm ok with them now.

Robots on the other hand... :roll:

Most of the reasons why I don't experience certain attractions is because I know my limits physically. I do not want to put myself in a situation that will cause me to be physically ill and not enjoy the rest of the day.

And I am exceptionally weak when it comes to the power of suggestion...which is why I only made it through the pre-show of AE and never into the show. I can't stand ITTBAB either (cute movie, hate the effects)...same for HISTA. TSM isn't so bad and Muppets are done in a different way so the effects aren't as "strong".

Strange, right? (I have a bunch of other quirky strange fears too...but we won't go into that)

Just lay back on the couch and tell me everything. Remember you're a GOOD egg! A little cracked but GOOD. Image

Really? Robots? Hmmm, did you ever see Timekeeper? Were you ok with him and 9Eye?
