PotC hummer

Comment: Someone I know who works at Disneyland claims that one day a
couple went on the Pirates of the Carribean ride. It was during the
morning of a particularly slow weekday so they had a boat to themselves.
One thing leads to another and the woman gives the man oral sex.
Afterwards she goes to spit the semen into the water when a voice on the
PA says, "Don't spit that out, we will have a cup for you at the end of
the ride"

Somehow I have huge doubts that POTC, one of the most popular attraction and the Disney theme parks, would ever have a slow day where somebody would be alone and get away with sex and not be noticed. There are cameras everywhere.

Well, supposedly they did get noticed by the cameras but I've been on that ride in the middle of a weekday and still came nowhere near having a boat to myself. (I was with my sister though so I wasn't thinking about sex that time)

Which makes me think that they would be kicked out or arrested, not have a lewd comment over a PA system.

I have been at DL in the past, on a rainy midweek day in the spring, where you can literally walk into a ride like PotC and get on a boat by yourself.

Then again, even if there were others in the boat - if you were in the front row and were discreet enough...

There have been many stories in the past where couples have become amorous on the "dark rides" only to be caught in the act.

Is the length of the ride really long enough for a culminated blow job, though?

From All Ears net:

Quote:
The ride takes 14-1/2 minutes, though it can be longer if the boats start getting backed up in the final scenes, as they often do.
So, yes, I would say the time is long enough. However, I really doubt this legend is true because I'm sure the cast member watching the monitors would have stopped the ride before the "culmination". Unless of course they were recording it and it ends up on the net, like the Splash Mountain Flashers. (just kidding )

Whether the story is true or not, I can't say. Whether you could get a boat to yourself during a slow enough time -- I've definitely seen the place when it's been slow enough for this; I think I've been in a boat with just one or two friends, though that was in the pre-Indy, pre-Fantasmic!, pre-Splash Mountain days, when that whole side of the park would be largely empty after 9:00 PM. (And God, that was wonderful.) Whether you could be discreet enough to manage oral sex, I'm not sure. I don't know how good the camera coverage is in that ride. (According to an article that starts about halfway down this page, there are no cameras at all inside "It's a Small World." Probably safe -- who could possibly maintain an erection listening to that music?) And it is dark. I think you might be able to get away with it. (Probably best would be if you had someone else in the row in front of you to provide "cover," if you were really determined.)

The ride that used to be fairly infamous as a retreat for couples was "Adventure Through Inner Space." Hardly ever a line, two persons per atom-mobile (the same Omnimover ride system still used at the Haunted Mansion), dark and cool. (We used to head there just for the air conditioning on some warm summer nights.) The Peoplemover was a favorite too I think -- a long ride, and often no trouble getting a whole 4-car train to yourself. There definitely was camera coverage for that ride, but you could perhaps have managed to remain out of view in the bottom of the car.

A tired girl leaning over to rest her head in her boyfriend's lap, a strategically-placed sweater ... it wouldn't be too hard to hide the nature of the "activity" from the monitors.

This thread is begging for a "the ride is full of sea men" reference.

In my youth, my friends and I did manage a Pirates boat to ourselves (it was early February, mid-eighties, raining), and even managed to be yelled at over the speaker system after being seen by the cameras. So I believe the story up to that point.

However, while I'm pretty sure the cast member was saying something along the lines of "sit down" to us (we where switching seats), it was hard to make out exactly what was being said. I don't think passengers would be able to understand a line as long as "Don't spit that out, we will have a cup for you at the end of the ride."

And, why would the cast member care if she spit, anyways? The ride is already full of sea men.

I doubt it would be hidden enough for anyone to not see what was going on, but it could be hidden enough to give plausible deniability.

I've heard former cast members refer to the Peoplemover as the "Peoplemaker."

Did anyone else see the thread title and think that it was about a custom-made vehicle?

I was certain it was going to consist of photos of the big SUV with POTC logos on sides & perhaps a 3-D Jolly Roger on the hood. I've seen the POTC TV set at Wal-mart. As far as calling it a hummer, I prefer the term, "blowdini." Any other terms for this act out there?

Speaking of which, I don't know if anyone has found the easter eggs on the 2nd DVD of the 3rd movie. There's one easter egg, in which Martin Klebba (Marty) is showing off his costum made POTC chopper.

Most people I know will say "blow job" or refer to "sucking (insert NFBSK word here)." I think the reason "hummer" isn't so common any more is because people like us think of a Hummer as a gigantic SUV.

Every time I read it, my mind first sees "PotC Humor" - I'm looking for jokes, not sex.

Boy, I guess that is the first thing that goes when you get old!

This is what I was expecting as well. I'm not that knowledgeable about NFBSK slang and I've never heard this term used in that manner before. I was very confused at first about what the thread title had to do with the article but I figured it out eventually.

Like most colloquialisms, I'm sure it's a regional thing. I've been hearing the term "hummer" referring to a BJ since long before the vehicle was mainstream, so I didn't think twice about the title on the thread when I read it.
