Not the Happiest Place on Earth

16. She should get 1million plus whatever personal items she purchased herself, plus any gifts he gave her during the marriage.

17. I'm sure the marriage breakup is her fault.I've met Roy Disney and I can honestly say he's a helluva nice guy.

18. You know he is trading her in for a younger model. I hope she gets HALF. Married 51 years, 4 kids, probably countless affairs on his part, she deserves it.

19. #13 A:
I was there too!
It was a lovely affair, we dined and danced and enjoyed the lights of Los Angeles...look dear, over there...that's downtown, and over there, that's Hollywood the land of make belive and broken dreams. Your husband was so handsome, I couldn't help myself, the next thing I know I was alone with him in the pool house among the chemicals and hoses and whatnots. I tired to resist but he gently pushed me down to my knees and filled my mouth with little his "dwarf". I gave him a "hummer" and he ruined my dress, hair and makeup with his man yogurt.
It was a wonderful eveing, and Roy...what can I say about Roy...

23. 51-year marriage and HE filed? Some men in powerful positions believe that it's their entitlement to cheat; it's like a perq of their job. And many men are afraid of being alone. They need momma to take care of them. They don't just decide to leave; they may be unhappy, but they decide it's okay to leave WHEN replacement is already waiting in the wings.

I would bet my Mickey Mouse ears that the old coot is getting some on the side...and that his wife is devastated.

25. Men should be allowed by law to cheat. We have to spread our sperm all over the place. Why should we be tied down with some 77 year old hag that has a face of death? Do you like to wake up every morning to the face of death? Not me

26. #22 Men are allowed to cheat and do any other god-damn they please. And not one person can do a motherf***in thing about it.
