Last night's was about some sort of strange Disney World trip with a large group of classmates. Disney World was much lamer than I remember it. Anyway, I wanted to go on the "It's a Small World" ride (you can pretty much only go on the lame stuff if you're disabled, no Space Mountain or anything) and so I got in line for that.
Instead of those big cars you get in, the seats were now small, floating egg-shaped pieces with a hollow for your butt. They were all crowded together in what seemed like a flume ride without water and just hovering. You had to pick one and balance just right to keep from getting tipped off. All of the seats were crowded together, it was kind of like one of those lazy river rides at a waterpark.
So the ride started, and instead of going on the normal track with everyone else I'm part of a group of ten or fifteen people who are suddenly diverted off to the right, up a steep conveyor belt. We end up in front of an office where a bunch of Disney scientists are trying to figure out what's wrong with our hover-egg-chair things.
I was pissed off because I could hear the "It's a Small World" music off in the distance and here we were, stuck on this damn conveyor belt with a bunch of irritated scientists in some little office trying to diagnose a problem we didn't even know we had.
Finally they either decided it wasn't that big of a problem, or they fixed it or something, but we couldn't finish the ride. One of the scientists got the bright idea to buy us all off, so he got out a bunch of Disney shopping bags and started loading them up with promotional chocolates. We were shoved out a back door with our bags of chocolate instead of getting to finish the ride.
