[GCI Wooden]

You see a licence plate with "RMC" on it, and you instantly become jealous.

You see the letters "BNM" and it reminds you of a famous company if you say the letters out loud.

[Henry M]

Whenever you see or hear the danish say Welcome and you instantly think of Vekoma. ('Velkommen')

Your wife (who enjoys coasters, certainly, but isn't an enthusiast by any means), knows what parks she wants to pay for and which she wants to skip, by whether or not there is a new B&M or Intamin and how old it is.
