You find pleasure in driving fast over the ripples on the freeway just so you can feel airtime. Does snyone else have any eccentric habits?

I actually do that after a long day of coasting. On the drive home I always think "Gee, these bumps in the rode give really crappy airtime." <IMG SRC="/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif">

Really only annoying my friends when I go on my rants. I wish I had some close friends who were as obsessed as I am, but oh well. I was at PCW one time, and I pissed my friend off to the point that he told me he'd throw me in the river if I didn't shut up about CP.

You know your a rollercoaster addict when you take out the seatbelts in your car and put in B&M OTS restraints. How cool would that be??? <IMG SRC="/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif">

i agree with medusa, one time on a flight to florida, the plane kept on making HUGE dips, everyone else had their seatbelt on, i had mine off, with my hands in the air enjoying every second of it while the rest of the plane was throwing up and nervous. i don't have any coaster loving friends either, they are all terrifyed of them and get sick of me talking about them all the time.

You know you're a coaster enthusiast when you come to the Thrillride Forums everyday.
<BR>
<BR>You know you're a coaster enthusiast when you think the nutcracker refers to anything that involves riding standing up that isn't a tilt-o-whirl.

You know you're a coaster enthusiast when...
<BR>
<BR>--You take the Busch Boulevard exit off I-275 in Tampa, and you think, "What a great down helix--a little short, but fun."
<BR>
<BR>--You call out the moves to the other passengers on your favorite coasters.
<BR>
<BR>--You simply can't understand why your coaster-phobic friends won't get on Montu with you.
<BR>
<BR>--Given a choice between paying off your credit card or road-tripping to IOA, you are already standing in line to get on The Incredible Hulk.
<BR>
<BR>--You wish you could have your car seats built by Bolliger and Mabillard.
<BR>
<BR>--You see a street sign that refers to a street as a loop, and you are disappointed that it's not actually an inversion.
<BR>
<BR>--You look at an open field and figure out mentally which of your favorite coasters would fit there, and where you'd put the queue house.

When you have all the stats of coasters you have ridden (and some you haven't) memorized.
<BR>
<BR>When you can carry on a one sided conversation about roller coasters for hours.
<BR>
<BR>When you can carry on a two side conversation for days.

When you sit in your class at school and think of knew ways to make a roller coaster twist and turn if only you had your own roller coaster manufacturing company.
