It has been named the happiest place on Earth - but according to one very unhappy Disneyland guest, the once-beloved theme park has all but lost its magic entirely.
A Reddit user took to the website to slam the iconic park, claiming the exorbitant ticket prices and long wait times have become so 'atrocious' that visiting the tourist hot spot is no longer 'worth the effort or the money'.
'Literally everything is a queue,' the user complained in the Unpopular Opinion subreddit. 'Going to the bathroom, Queue. Want to eat? Queue. Want to buy a souvenir? Queue. Want to get a glimpse of something? Queue...'
'We purchased a genie+ pass was just enough to get us on a few rides, the one attempt we made to get on a ride without the genie pass, we waited in line for 2 hours only to have the ride break down,' they said. 'Of course Disneyland doesn't do rain checks unless you have a fast pass...'
The final straw for the unhappiest visitor on earth was the quality of the rides they did manage to go on.
'The nail in the coffin is that Disneyland doesn't really offer things that other amusement parks don't offer anymore,' they bemoaned.
'Their ride technology and themed areas are on par with places like Universal Studios (which is less than half the cost),' they continued. 'Any edge they have on quality is completely diminished by the sheer amount of people and lines you have to compete with constantly.'
The disillusioned Disney fan said they've also observed that people don't notice the detail or work that has gone into the park when there are hordes of people.
'Its pretty apparent that Disney's popularity just continues to soar and ticket prices continue to rise,' the user continued.

It’s a total rip off...why give money to a gay propaganda machine? Overpriced self advertising trinkets....overpriced foods and hotels...it wouldn’t be bad if they weren’t propagandizing....even then..may be best for up to 9 year olds..I was trying to bust the autopia cars off of the rails at age 9
If the young boys want a thrill...take them on a police ride-along when they’re old enough...teach em judo or boxing if they have lots of energy...take them to historical sites..teach em horseback riding...survival tricks...batting cages, weightlifting, concerts, habitat for humanity..oh, yeah. star wars rides...gay day... it’s a small world....what a crock of lameness...
Wouldn’t go there for free, or if paid.
I was there two weeks ago and this guy is exactly right.
I saw a fellow wearing the perfect Tee shirt. The shirt said “ Disneyland Resort, The longest, most expensive day of my life!”
I am amazed they didn’t throw him out.
We were there for 3 days averaging 4 rides a day. The rest of the time was standing in F-ing lines.
Disney losing billions due to putting gay gay gay in all their movies and cartoons and transgenders as greeters at their parks so what does the ceo do? He raises prices even more at the parks...!
It’s never been worth the money, which is why we never went there.
Greedy.
Disney went woke, and now is going broke!
HUZZAH!
