Mobile Completely wrong Orlando information?

So we had a new guy at work today and I was chatting to him, trying to be welcoming. We came to the subject of holidays and I mentioned that I'm going to Florida in March and he said he'd been before. He mentioned that'd been to 'Disney, Universal & EPCOT.' I just casually said 'oh, EPCOT is part of Disney.' he then proceeded to tell me with absolute confidence that it wasn't when he visited and they must have bought it since!

I just nodded and changed subject but my inner Disney parks fan was screaming!

My question is are you ever presented with information which is so clearly wrong as absolute fact?

Maybe he genuinely believed that Epcot was a shopping centre😂

All the time! People tell me how they’ve been to Disney, universal, Hollywood studios etc and haven’t got a clue which rides are where. DH fires me the ‘just shut up’ look

I had a conversation with my hairdresser a few months ago. She was adamant that her friend stayed on I drive but bought the Disney Dining Plan. She wouldn’t have it that she couldn’t have and I came out and googled it myself because she even started to convince me !

My BIL is taking his girls in December and is adamant he doesn’t need to book any fast passes before he goes 😳

Just curious, but why do people get so worked up when others mistakenly call WDW, Disneyland. Surely it’s a genuine error - am I missing something?
