You Might Be A Coaster Nerd If....

[SFOGdude25]

You might be a coaster nerd if you can recite Beast's automated lift hill spiel word for word from memory.

Totally guilty. I've ridden Beast a LOT.

Design roller coasters in your free time, the old fashion way.

You might be a coaster nerd if you're the only one of your friends that get really excited while going to a fair

[IronWolfman]

When you accidentally call the first day of school, "opening day".

[rcjp]

You physically wince every time someone refers to a coaster as "The ___ "

Guilty

 

...you get annoyed whenever someone calls a vertical loop a "loop-de-loop".

 

You might be a coaster nerd if you wince and become annoyed when people call every inversion a loop.

Guilty.

If when going on a family vacation you manage to find a credit somewhere and they go: How do you know about all these things?

[VF15]

...you're the only one putting your hands up on a coaster.

[rcjp]

^That happened to me on skyrush. When I was looking at the onride pictures I saw that I was the only out of 32 who had his hands up.

If whenever someone mentions Arrow (the tv series) you think of arrow dynamics.

If you drive your car and your coming to a hill, you go fast towards the hill. When you crest it, you scream "AIRTIME!"

That show is even worse than the worst Arrow coaster I've been on

 

If you watch Arrow(TV-series) just because you like the name. I think it's horrible but I watch it anyway, just like I wait for the GTA result and make negative comments every year.

[rcjp]

^Haha I don't watch it. But when I first heard a friend mentioning it I though: Arrow..... Dynamics?

[VF15]

...you've ever put your hands up while watching a POV. (I am guilty.)

[Sharman19]

If you see one of these

and say "I smell a credit!"

[Generic Name]

If you see one of these

and say "I smell a credit!"

There's one of those at the mall near me that has some CP coasters in it; I know Gemini is one of them, and I think Blue Streak is another.

 

That said I can pretty much do what that does by watching a TPR POV and tilt my desk chair along with it.

[gerstlaueringvar]

Is that Mean Streak on the screen?

 

If you want to buy one of those things to watch POV...

[VF15]

...the word "credit" makes you think of coaster credits rather than the financial term.

...you will be going into depression in a little over a month.

[rcjp]

...the word "credit" makes you think of coaster credits rather than the financial term.

Oh so true.

[coasterschile]

...If you relate the height of a building with the height of a coaster

[VF15]

...you get mad when you find an incorrect coaster statistic in a math or physics textbook.

[Kyle Coleman]

If you got to a movie at a regal movie theater and watch the little animated movie monorail they have play before the start of the movie and put your hands up and think to yourself" man that hill would have some pretty good airtime".

[coasterschile]

^^guilty!

 

^totally guilty!

[Kyle Coleman]

Glad to see I'm not the only one who does that.

[MrSum1_55]

You have ever waited for the front row not to get a more thrilling ride, but to get a better look at the machanisms of the ride. (Lift hills, LIM's, brakes, etc...)

[rcjp]

^Check

[VF15]

...whenever you hear the song "Roar" by Katy Perry, it makes you think about the "B&M roar" or the Roar clones at SFA and SFDK.

[DoinItForTheFame]

... You have a roller coaster related tattoo. *guilty*
