Answer is no for me. It can be a little awkward to go to theme parks in groups, but most of my friends understand I'm into rollercoasters more than they are and we're able to meet in the middle. Honestly with any nerdy hobby, if you talk to people about it confidently enough and don't annoy...

Not just ANY SR2 - It's going to be the world's first dueling Sky Rocket II. One side regular sit-down, and the other side with inverted seating. Code Named Sky Rocket LXIX. Source: my dad works for nintendo

I watched Mary & Max recently. It's really good - equal parts funny, touching, and depressing. Plus I'm a sucker for stop motion animation. It's available to stream on the Criterion Channel if anyone is interested. Just a warning: it's not child-appropriate at all even though it's animated.

I thought they were just doubling down on the ghostly stuff? God I hope it's not another capes**t theme, they have enough as is.

I said this in another thread, but if you turkeys care so much about cred count but are too embarrassed to park yourself on a kiddie ride, have you ever tried just lying about it? It's not like anyone here (or anywhere in the world) cares enough to fact check you. And even if they do, what are...

YOU'RE TEARING ME APART, SEAWORLD

"Local CHAD hurricane absolutely DESTROYS Iron Gwazi with FACTS and LOGIC! Coaster enthusiasts HATE HER!"

Can we just make a separate thread for doom posting and/or whining about delays? I keep expecting actual news whenever this thread gets bumped, not poorly written freakouts.

Even though I've lived in Houston for about two years now, I went out to Kemah for the 4th yesterday and finally got on Boardwalk Bullet. Hot damn, it did not disappoint. Awesome layout with a decent amount of airtime (notably off the first drop, and then various twisty airtime hills scattered...

I wish I was more into the community before I moved away from Pittsburgh. I didn't really know about RF2 or Phoenix and I never made an attempt to visit Dorney, so I'm missing all of those unfortunately. Still, Phantom's Revenge is my most ridden roller coaster by far and I use it as a...

Don't forget about the "ghostly whooshing" sound of the LIM's activating.

@Matt N oh well that's funny, since I'm a 5'9" manlet as well and I'm very rarely bothered by B&M rattle. Go figure lol

To each their own, but I never noticed much of a rattle at all on banshee (most recent KI visit would have been 2 years or so ago). I hear that from so many enthusiasts that it makes me wonder if I rode it in a parallel universe or something. Though I understand rattle on B&M coasters varies a...

inb4 it ends up being a lightly themed zamperla spinning mouse.

Soon-to-be spicy rare cred Anaconda (KD), on Friday the 18th. It was not good.

Then I don't know what to tell you, brother. People just don't talk about Chinese parks or coasters the same way they talk about western ones. Sometimes it's hard to spot

Smells like casual sinophobia in here :(

I'd like to add that I made the mistake of going to a park a few months ago, and even then nobody followed the social distancing rules nor did they wear their masks masks property. And if six flags limited capacity at all, I'd hate to see that park at full capacity. Maybe SeaWorld is better...
