10 Disney Jokes That Flew Over Our Heads As Kids
Disney

As a child, every chance I got in front of the television would be spent with a Disney movie on the screen. They made us cry, jump for joy, and laugh like crazy. However there were always those jokes where we laughed with our parents just because they laughed. When rewetting these Disney movies (let's admit we all do it) there are so many jokes that flew straight over my head as a kid. To honor ten of Disney princesses, here are ten jokes that not only flew over my head, but yours as well.

1. The flashing lights in Cars.

Oh, yes. Disney went there. We all know what those crazy NASCAR fans can do and apparently so does Lightning McQueen. Ka'Chow.

2. When Mushu meets Mulan, there was more than "A Girl Worth Fighting For."

Looks like the lucky cricket didn't work for favorite little dragon.

3. Genie's jokes in Aladdin were kind of a hit-or-miss.

I know, I know. I might sound crazy saying that, but there multiple jokes of his that I truly did not get at the time. Robin Williams was such an amazing voice actor there was no surprise that Disney hired him on. With that being said, he inserted so many old celebrity references that I sometimes still don't get. These references include Ed Sullivan and even one from Jack Nicholson that you might not recognize.

4. When Kristoff's sleigh burst into flames.

This slight joke didn't go unnoticed for some of the older audience members – aka me and my friends that went and saw it opening week. Yet, for those young kids this spot is for them.

5. Mr. Potato Head decided to use his own form of sign language.

I think we all know what Mr. Potato Head is insinuating here. Naughty, naughty...

6. Frolo's song in "The Hunchback of Notre Dame."

Did no one realize that he was supposed to be a priest? Cool, me neither.

7. When Kuzco analyzes the girls for his palace.


Yeah, never really caught this until the fourth time watching is...

8. In the live action "101 Dalmatians" Cruella De Vil calls Roger and his wife's baby an accident.

This kind of says it all.

9. Back to "Emperor's New Groove," Kronk decides to show off his Boy Scout skills.

Well, wonder what's under that tiny little tent there...

10. The bus driver in "Hocus Pocus" was extra friendly.


You might not think it's a problem Mr. Bus Driver, but its still pretty funny.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
