I thought up a bunch of these at work and decided to make a thread about it.
(And make up your own if you like)

You know you're a coaster fanatic...

if, during school, you've done a coaster-related science project.

if you've ever been introduced as, "This is (name). He loves rollercoasters."

if you've ever seen/heard a cool movie/song/music video and thought, "That would make a sweet ride!"

if you've ever visited a theme park wearing a shirt from another theme park

if you've ever listened to theme music from a superhero movie because it reminds you of the ride.

if, during sex, you throw your arms up and scream.

(...and for members who are old enough to drive...)

when you give someone a ride, upon arrival, you tell them to "Push down and pull up on the lap bar and exit to the right of the vehicle."

if you like to hang things from your rear-view mirror and pretend it's a suspended coaster.

if, while driving at a certain speed, you stick your head out the window and think, "This is what (Insert Coaster) feels like!"

^ so many times haha. Its the Worst.

I can't count how many times I've been introduced as the kid who loves roller coasters, and builds toy models. It's kind of embarrassing sometimes, lol, but who cares.

Yes to all of these

[~stεεlspectrum~]

I said yes to 5 of them. Every time I hear the Batman theme it reminds me of the ride.

[Blackkitty]

I just have the tendancy to correct coaster noobs when they say loop de loop or the incredible hulk thing (cobra roll).

[SuperTKDKid]

[Jonny]

In my school, I'm known as the- Coastergeek.

[Jumpge]

^LOL!^ I know I'm one! Everyone always introduces me as the roller coaster freak, roller coaster fanatic, or the crazy person who rides roller coasters that are scary. I find it kind of funny how people think the rides are scary when i just ride them for fun! So yeah, most commonly, the crazy roller coaster kid.

if you're standing in line when a ride breaks down, and you can tell the ride-ops how to fix it.

when your k'nex collection weighs more than you do.

if you didn't know 'aerodynamics' was one word.

[TheSUCKCrew]

when you win a bet about the goliath with your math-teacher

if you used a parabolic formula to show on which G-forces a womans-breast looks the best

if you made restraints on your office-chair and went down stairs with it

if you went on diet so you're going faster in a rollercoaster!

when you have a photobook with only onride pictures in it:D

If you disguise your dog like a little boy, so he can join the rollercoaster too!

-I'm a coaster enthousiast-

[Coaster105]

If you pay a random little kid to go on a kiddie coaster with you, that is no adults aloud unless accompanying a child, just for the sake of getting the credit.

When you make a coaster related joke and no one laughs except you.

When all that comes up in your "Recommended for you box" on youtube, is rollercoasters.

[The Stig]

if you are easily distracted by brightly painted steel.

if your understanding of economics came from playing Rollercoaster Tycoon.

[Pyro]

if at lunch you are thinks of games for a coaster site instead of talking to people.

Totally! I love playing RCT2 just to work out the finances and make more money.

[Sniggeh]

If whenever you see a roller coaster on a commercial you scream the name out at the top of your lungs even if no one's home.

[SuperTKDKid]

when people start to watch your screen at school when your on this site

[The Stig]

If the margins of your notebooks are full of doodles of coaster layouts.

If the smell of popcorn and ice cream remind you of a day at the park.

If you get excited when you see an 18-wheeler carrying stacked, metal cargo... It might be a flat ride.

If you dream about riding in an elevator, and the elevator always drops when it reaches the top.

[rollercoasterfanatic919]

If, whenever you see a graphed quadratic function, it takes you a minute to realize that it isn't a roller coaster.

[SuperTKDKid]

when you get distracted in class and start to think about coasters

[~stεεlspectrum~]

^^ When you spend 5 minutes in algebra2 yesterday thinking about how that parabola looked like a B&M hill...
