I went to Universal recently and it was great. It costs about the same as Disney, maybe very very slightly less. I don't get this shit where people act like it's 1/3 of the cost or something. It isn't. Both are premium parks and not somewhere most go every day. However there is one big difference. The quality of people.
I did not see the snooty fake rich "normal" acting people there for pretty much my whole trip. At Disney World I encountered plenty of fucks like that arguing and bitching at their kids. Didn't see that at Unjversal. There also weren't a billion baby strollers blocking up everything as miserable looking people in matching clothes push some baby whose two fucking young to even remember or understand where they are at. No douchebag beta males wearing a custom t shirt making a joke of how expensive the place is. No privileged ass group fucks walking around in shorts that say shit like "Brenda's wedding shower 2025" Very nice that the people at Universal all seemed more about having a good time and not appearing like they are having a good time.
Most of the employees were good. I had one person get shitty with me on a ride because I didnt understand the instructions on how to sit in the car. Another acted weird and socially inept at a shop and said nothing as I made a purchase. Then another was bitchy and gave me attitude at a restaurant I tried to eat at. Honestly this rude cunt at the airport was worse than any of them. Still, not like the assholes at Disney. I also like to think the people at Universal aren't living out of their cars like Disney people supposedly do.
The Hollywood facade at Universal was better. Hollywood Studios is bleh and boring. Universals old school hollywood area was actually kicking. The characters had more personality too. There were also characters you could meet that weren't just for babies like at Disney.
Most ride lines seemed shorter. Disney stuff is heavily skewed towards babies. Universal it's like everything there is kind of for anyone and if something is more adult oriented it is, if it's more for kids it is, there's no pretending and it all seemed like it was more neutral and for almost anyone.
And the hotels. The cheapest at Disney are the Pop resorts which of I'm being honest here are shitty, low end rooms. Places thatd be like $80 a night anywhere else, but OMG a giant Play Doh container fifty feet from my room :0 At Universal the cheapest resort is like a palace and actually is around the same cost if not like $20 less than Disney. And Universal you get to see more of the area, no echo chamber like at Disney.
After getting back in already thinking of going again one day. Disney I kinda did everything I wanted to and after going to Universal don't really want to go back.
Universal is like the off brand competitor that is 1000X better and more fun than the thing it's competing against. Think Pepsi.

Now wait a darned minute...there is nothing inherently wrong with Presdent Trump giving Haiti to Presdent Putin for a resort project with golf, water parks and missile and drone silos and plenty of servants.
