23 Iconic Disney Channel Moments That Kids These Days Won't Remember

Bustle

Loading video...

If you turn on the TV now and flip the remote over to Disney Channel, it's easy to see things aren't what they used to be. We see the shows and movies our little brothers and sisters are watching and are appalled at how much Disney Channel has gone downhill since "back in our day." It's hard to appreciate the new stuff when we were alive to witness the prime era of Disney Channel Original Movies (DCOM's), shows, and stars, so let's take a look back at some of the Disney Channel moments that blew our young minds.

1. That time Aaron Carter guest starred on the Lizzie McGuire Christmas special.

2. When Phil and Keely finally admitted their love in the series finale of Phil of the Future.

3. When every star we had ever loved came together to play the Disney Channel Games.

4. When Tia and Tamara were separated at birth (again), but this time they were witches.

5. That time the Jonas Brothers guest starred on Hannah Montana, and we were blessed with witnessing the beginnings of Niley.

6. When "Undercover Superstar" visited Bayside and gave us the That's So Raven musical episode of our dreams.

7. When Gordo finally got the girl in The Lizzie McGuire Movie.

8. Literally every moment of this smash hit that changed the lives of millions and gave us all unrealistic expectations for high school.

9. When Miley found out Jake Ryan's real name was Leslie.

10. When Esteban channeled the ghost of suite 613 and gave us all nightmares for weeks.

11. Every time we thought we were finally going to see Wizard Kelly's face on The Proud Family.

12. When Marnie used the talisman to defeat Kalabar in Halloweentown.

13. When Lizzie and Isabella showed everyone (especially Paolo) what dreams were really made of.

14. When Shane sang with Mitchie at Final Jam in Camp Rock.

15. When the Tipton residents tried to put on their own version of High School Musical and gave us the mashup we never knew we needed.

16. When the Disney Channel Circle of Stars combined all of our faves in one music video and we couldn't handle it.

17. When Ren "killed" Louis in The Even Stevens Movie, but we found out it was just a prank.

18. When Troy and Gabriella broke up and left us heartbroken for an entire 20 minutes...

19. Then everything was fine again when Gabriella surprised us all by showing up to sing her part in "Everyday."

20. When Kim and Ron FINALLY got together in Kim Possible: So The Drama and had us all chanting OTP before we even knew what it meant.

21. That time Protozoa brought down the house with his performance of "Supernova Girl" in Zenon: Girl of the 21st Century.

22. When the Cheetah Girls showed us their true spots and came together after their big fight to slay this performance.

23. And when this iconic special happened and made every single one of our Disney dreams come true.

Looking back, it's pretty clear that we truly experienced the golden age of Disney Channel. The kids these days just don't know what they're missing.

12 Most Annoying Things About Working In Sales

No, I can't help you.

Oakland University

1131

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

16 Things Blondes Are Tired Of Hearing

Please hold your blonde joke.

Rutgers University

Yify

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

4. Having the same conversations over and over again! To be honest I really don't even want to talk to you right now, or have this fake ass smile on my face!

5. Always having to have a smile on your face. I promise I'm not as happy as I may look!

6. Customers not understanding that sometimes, mistakes happen. I am a human being, we all mess up sometimes!

It's just my face, I swear.

1. When you meet new people, they automatically assume you hate them or are rude.

2. People are constantly asking you if you're OK.

3. After being friends with someone for a while, they confess to you, "I thought you were so mean when I first met you," or, "I thought you hated me."

4. You get told to smile more, but they don't understand how scary that would be.

5. You're always labeled as seeming "judgy."

6. Passing a friend with your RBF in full force and not realizing you just shot them a death glare.
