Disney Parks are now overrun with dirty, filthy hippies!

Much like the Iranian government’s rules on haircuts and USB’s rules on underwear, Disney is a large autocratic organization with very strict rules on what employees can and cannot do, wear, or have growing on their face.  For example, the company of Walt Disney (a man with an iconic mustache) banned mustaches until 2000.  Until two years ago, women had to wear pantyhose under their skirts in both California and obnoxiously hot Florida.  Well, Disney is reversing an age-old ban on facial hair on men, allowing goatees and beards on employees.

Of course, since this is Disney, there are rules.  The beard or goatee must be neatly trimmed and no more than a quarter inch in length.  It must also “create an overall neat, polished and professional look,” according to the leaked memo.  The new Disney Look guidelines were confirmed by Walt Disney Parks and Resorts, the parent company of Disneyland in Anaheim and Disney World in Orlando.

In addition, the company is instituting a Casual Friday for employees not directly meeting with the public.

I’ve never had a problem eating food from a gas station.  Just two weeks ago, I ate a couple of hot dogs purchased from a gas station.  They were delicious.  That’s not the first time I’ve eaten gas station food, and I doubt it will be the last.  There’s nothing like a fun food novelty. […]

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
