Missed Opportunities
mary.pesik replied to Garet's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I missed out on Tidal Force at Hershey - my mom and brothers went on it and asked if I'd like to go, but I didn't, probably because of the height. Tidal Force is 100 ft; I'd been on Batman at SFGAdv before, which is 105 ft. Next time we go, I am going on it. When my debit card from social security comes, I'll use it to buy Disney tickets for me, my brother, and his girlfriend, and on the trip I'll ride Splash Mountain (hopefully) because that's another missed opportunity (I was scared of the drop last time I went.) -
I want to become a ride op.
mary.pesik replied to mary.pesik's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Yeah, I took NickUni. Gonna fill out the job application in May. One problem is that I will NOT ride Shellraiser during breaks, because I am literally TERRIFIED of the 121.5 degree drop (even if it's less intense than El Toro's) and I DON'T WANT TO GET OVER IT. I would only ride it if Rorie D. Travis (Devon from Power Rangers Beast Morphers, which is a Nick show) were there with me. That's for another topic, though. I guess I will just have to quote SpongeBob, as it is my only favorite Nick show (well, sometimes Rocko too.) I CAN sing the campfire song over the all call like someone did on The Dark Knight at SFGAdv (while doped up on painkillers)... -
I actually sadly made a boy go to a different seat on a Larson Looper and not sit with his father all because I was too lazy to change seats. Yeah, I know better now. (I was 16!!) Plus, the ride served as punishment for what I did.

It's actually a good thing I missed out on Shellraiser, because it gave my brother a stomachache with its shaking track. Anyway, I missed out on Batman TDK on my 2019 SFNE trip because I was being a bit of a pussy then and didn't ride anything except for Thunderbolt, Catwoman's Whip, and GCGEFAA. -
Alas, we will never see another Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom. Unpopular opinion, but I kinda liked it when it was under the Six Flags name. I know it was dirty as heck, but they had a solid lineup, especially Chang. If that godforsaken ride op didn't MUTILATE that girl's foot on Superman... (my foot just hurts READING about that.)

I missed out on Snow White's Scary Adventures back in early 09. Really wish I went on it. -
I know Shellraiser made my brother get a stomachache because of the shaking track. That's why I'm a little nervous to go on if I ever get a job at NickUni. (I know that the drop is tamer than El Toro's.)

The more I talk about it with my dad, the more it looks like I'm going to have to be a ride op at THIS park instead of GAdv because it's closer. I don't like Nick (except for SpongeBob and sometimes Rocko) and never will all the rides run on the same day. Plus it's unthemed. However, I already have ideas on what I will do as a ride op (it won't involve factoids this time!) and maybe I'll get over my fear of steep drops if I ride Shellraiser with my fellow ops.

The only problem is, I live in Demarest, and my parents think GAdv is too far away. Everyone's telling me to get a job at Nickelodeon Universe in East Rutherford, but I'm not working in that unthemed dump and I like Warner Bros. way better than Nick. I could take a bus to Jackson, then an Uber to GAdv. I do have a debit card now thanks to social security. -
Kennywood (KW) Discussion Thread
mary.pesik replied to DenDen's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I'm actually gonna miss Garfield. Garfield was my life around age 6. I know, it sucked in terms of mechanics, but the story was cute and it appealed to kids. Keep in mind, I'm 18, and I'm also a Six Flags stan so... -
Walt Disney World Epcot Discussion Thread
mary.pesik replied to SharkTums's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
So, Wonders of Life was my favorite pavilion in Epcot, and this is how Disney could revive it instead of turning it into the Play pavilion. Attractions! [*]Ant-Man and The Wasp: Body Wars - A motion simulator ride where Ant-Man and The Wasp shrink themselves and the riders to go inside The Falcon's body and witness how white blood cells react to an injury. Paul Rudd, Evangeline Lily, and Anthony Mackie would reprise their roles. [*]Inside Out: Driven By Emotions - A show similar to Cranium Command, but featuring the characters from Inside Out. Join Joy, Anger, Fear, Sadness, and Disgust as they control Riley in a day of her life. [*]Goofy About Health - A revival of the original show. [*]The Story of You - A show about how you were born, but taught in a safe manner. That's all I have right now. Cheers! -
What parks are you visiting in 2020?
mary.pesik replied to VF15's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
SFGAdv, SFNE, maybe another park during our vacation. That is, if the goddamn Granola Virus stops before then. -
Favorite Disney Park and why?
mary.pesik replied to Hattuchili's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Walt Disney World because it has 4 parks
