Part of what makes festivals fun is when you get an experience you wouldn’t get elsewhere. Trying to be “The Next Bonaroo or Coachella” is dumb because if I wanted to get a Bonaroo or Coachella experience (which, for the record, I wouldn’t), I’d go to Bonaroo or Coachella.

As someone turning 30 pretty damn soon, the idea of paying hundreds of dollars to go to a crowded festival that may involve sleeping in tents just... doesn’t cut it anymore. The only festivals I’ll go to are the ones that are in/around major urban areas, and there are more than enough of those that I can see major…

$75,000? Momma needs a (few) new pair of shoes.

Yes. Your outrage is justified! Nor are headbands Vatican “veils.”

I read an article where it said that she actually has no interest, at all, so her staff dresses her when she goes out.

These ladies in the cheatin’ fascinators are wearing HEADBANDS with elaborate shit stuck to them, not HATS, and it drives me crazy when these cheatin’ fascinators get classified as hats. HEADBANDS ARE NOT HATS.

If they had anything of the sort on hand, they probably didn’t have enough time to drag it out and set it up.

i work at a six flags, and, knowing security, the majority are absolutely not equipped for anything other than a minor guest dispute, so the idea of people getting mad at them for being out of their depth is super ridiculous

Those Titanic people are at least filming in landscape position. I haaaaaate portrait-oriented videos.

It’s also possible the sixteen year-old running the ride wasn’t in sight of the girl, and another sixteen year-old employee just ran up to her/him, and screamed, “STOP THE RIDE!”

Seriously!

As someone who spent a number of years working at a Six Flags amusement park I can say this much: safety is no fucking joke at any of their parks. The park I worked at has had two deaths. One was the result of an obese patron who could not remove their safety belt when a boat capsized in waist high water. I worked…

The woman was super annoying and an idiot. Park security normally just throws out people breaking the park rules. Catching people is not really in the job description.

Her commentary reminded me vaguely (though not nearly as bad) of that video where the son and daughter of a family get stuck in a hotel elevator and the rest of the family berates the hotel security for not intervening. No one knows better than the guy filming it what to do in an emergency*, I guess.

Right? She’s(?) the moral compass they all needed.

They just use those for bears.

HOW AM I GONNA GET MY VIRAL VIDEO OF SOMEONE DYING, THEN

If filming in vertical mode wasn’t enough of an indication that the uploaded is a terrible person, the unhelpful shit she is spewing out while other people actually try to help is.

I’m more upset with the woman filming than I am with anyone from the park.
