Post subject: You know you're a theme park/roller coaster addict when
|
 |
|
- You think about rollercoasters and rides all day long
- You have atleast 2 games from the roller coaster tycoon series
- You know what terms such as B&M, OTSR, PTC, Intamin, S:UF, RCT, stands for
- You know what horse collar, heartline roll, buzz bar, headchopper, diving loop, zero G roll, etc means
- You have a season's pass for one or more of your local amusement park(s)
- You know that a train is not just something that goes "choo-choo"
- You don't buy your "on ride photo" not just because it's overpriced but also because you've been on the ride too many times
- You take people who come to visit from out of town (family, friends) to your local amusement park
- You understand how my saying "Put it down or hit the ground" relates to roller coaster safety
- You know that a corkscrew is not just something used to remove corks
- When someone mentions "restraint" you automatically think of roller coasters/rides (I know I do that, its kinda embarassing when I was at school and there was a public speaker talking about car safety and I started talking to myself out loud about rollercoasters)
- You spend your spare time looking up information on roller coasters/rides (I do that too!)
- You have done a school research report/project on Stan Checketts, Gary Palmer, Arnold Bernstiener, Walter Bolliger, Claude Mabillard, Hendrik op het Veld, etc (I did one on Stan Checketts one time)
- You atleast know who those people are
- Your hero is a rollercoaster/ride designer
- You're addicted to adrenaline rushes from rides
- You try to impress other people with your knowledge of rides/ride manufacturers
- You have dreams of working for a ride manufacturer or ever had such dreams
- You can identify the model or manufacturer of a ride just by it's design
- You prefer old fashioned rides to modern ones for the amazing airtime
- When someone asks you "Hey wanna go for a ride?" you say something like "Um...A coaster or a flat ride?"
- You know Arrow Dynamics is bankrupt
- You know of afew sneaky tricks to fool safety systems to give you more airtime (like sitting on your hand, lifting your knees up)
- You giggle secretly attendants fall for your sneaky tricks
Tell me if you know anymore, I'd love to hear them! |

-You say, "Why are you making that LIM noise" to a person who's humming a buzzing tune
-You have dreams about riding a 15-inversion coaster that you built in two days
-You build a roller coaster in your backyard
-You re-create every single coaster in the world on RCT3
-You reverse slightly into the garage and yell "All clear, hang on tight, enjoy the ride!" before pertending you're on the Xcelerator when you drive your convertible
-You can make sound effects like Kingda Ka's horn, Primier Rides LIM noises, California Screamin's countdown, lift chains, etc.
