I don't know; I think the conventional ones are pretty nifty, but the single-drop ones [while way too short, their queues considered --;]... you can't beat the adrenaline from that 8D! That Tower of Terror has some other ride on the other side or something; it suspends you in the air for forty seconds [my friend counted] then you plummet down. It's so fun XD But I am definitely going on that Kingda Ka thing! ROAD TRIP ROLLERCOASTER SAFARI AROUND THE US 8D I'm so jealous >_> I wish we had things like that in Australia.

That looks like... the most amazing ride ever. I think that's gonna be my new life goal.

I mean, look at that drop! It looks even more intense than the Behemoth itself! :D

And that folks, is something I will never ride. It'd kill me. o_o Seriously, that looks like an insanely awesome ride, but I'd probably die from such a rush. DX

I'll take some rollercoasters, but ones like those that are practically in the clouds, do not want. XD

NOOO! It's just like the Top Thrill Dragster D:
I hated the dragster so much. But that comes with working the early open, late closing store that comes with it. D:
But riding it was great. Sometimes it rolls back down the way it came. XDDD
Cedar point still claims it as the tallest and fastest... =/

I will make it my life's mission to ride Kingda Ka... but it must get busy at hell.

I read that Top Thrill Dragster can't function in any sort of precipitation, or winds exceeding, like, 30-something mph. It's understandable, I mean, LOOK AT THAT MONSTER OF A RIDE. *__* lsdgkdhjflsdf DO WANT ;;

Been there ridden that (Top Thrill, I mean) I can certianly see why it doesn't opperate in any precip. the air stings a littl bit anyway, adding precip would be like adding needles.

You are right. It shuts down all the time. If the wind is blowing a certain way it shuts down. Cause it rolls back if you don't. It's crazy... And the lines are soooooo long. But it is worth it I guess. I rode it on ride night sooooo it was just employees. XD

Gerri! When did you go to Cedar Point?

I guess for a massive monster of a roller coaster like that you need to take massive care of it. The weather's gotta be perfect, for safety reasons, especially since it goes up so high and goes really, really fast.

Knowing my luck, I'd turn up to ride the Top Thrill and it'd be raining >_> Murphy's Law.

Nothing goes according to plan. If it can go wrong, expect it to go wrong. It actually states, 'Whatever can go wrong will go wrong, and at the worst possible time, in the worst possible way' or something. D:

:O That is soo true. The worst things happen at the worst times xD

But, in contrast to his laws, the best things happen at the best times xD [wait... that is his law... xD]

I was at the vending machine today.. I had $2... I ended up, after constantly putting coins in and somehow getting more out, with $3.60 and a Can of Coke =D

I paid my Friend back all the money I owed him (the $2 that I initially borrowed) and went Hyper all day xD

You've got to love pessimists. The stuff those sort of people come out with at times! I was on an aeroplane a few years ago and I had to sit beside a stranger, so all was going well until the middle of the flight when the pilot told us we were thirty five thousand feet above the ground or whatever, and the person sitting next to me turns to face me, "The plane is obviously going to crash."

I laughed.

Ahaha. I hate vending machines due to unfortunate events that have happened to me because of them, like ordering a can of Coke that cost two Euro and watching the can get caught in the vending machine. I didn't manage to get it out either.

Outwardly I'm a huge optimist, I always try and keep other peoples spirits up and reassure them. Buuut that doesn't always reflect how I feel inside. I'm actually a pessimist for a good many things, especially lately D: I try to be optimistic, but some events going on IRL are just... bleh ><

Omg y'all, there's this show on the Travel Channel right now about donuts, DO WANT ;o;

Oh god, I knooow XD; I feel so guilty whenever I eat them, especially since they're soo good and I end up eating like, two or three at a time ;o; And when Krispy Kreme has the "Hot Donuts" sign on, it's like a fight for your life to get one, but totally worth it <3

I looove Asian food, I actually ate at P.F. Changs Chinese Bistro just yesterday. It was so good omg *-* By far one of my favorite restaurants.

I wonder if that was the same show my mom was watching the other day. I know she was watching something on the Travel Channel, and then randomly asked me to look up recipes online for some particular kind of donut because she'd seen it on there and wanted to try making it sometime. :x

Wait what? WHAT? >:O *stops eating for a month now* Well, I'd still eat if I had a chocolate iced one right now, but that'd be the only exception <3

I had Sweet and Sour chicken :> P.F. Changs has a lot of weird food I don't really care to try, so I just get the same thing over and over and over XD; But at most Asian places I get Sweet and Sour Chicken, Sesame Chicken, or some sort of sushi <3 om nom nom

Jess: Might be :o omg I can't imagine how amazing home-made donuts would be <333

Hmm, I've never had Mongolian Beef. I'll have to try that next time I'm at somewhere that serves it, it'd be nice to be able to order a dish other then those other ones for once XD;

Oooh I forgot about those <3 Those are so amazing, the little fried pieces of dough rolled in sugar and stuff *-* Those are awesome, especially if you get them right when they're hot and melt in your mouth :>
