If someone brings in a magnet you try to think of way to build a LIM launched coaster with magnets.

If you go to a car shop and hear the sound of a hydraulic lift and think of a hydraulic launched coaster

    a "Six Flags" day?

When your engineering class spends 30 min looking at your youtube page on the smartboard :P

When you argue with friends about roller coasters and they won't give up with their argument, but you know you're right :).

When you beg your parents to go somewhere close to an amusement park for vacation.

When you have that feeling, knowing roller coasters are going to be in the rest of your life.

Well for me,
You know you're a coaster fanatic if:

You go on SSC during school instead of doing physics work. (hehehe)

You try to impress your friends with all your coaster knowledge and they have to force you to stop.

You can't stop making models of roller coaster.

Every presentation that you're allowed to do is about roller coasters.

You can't get enough of roller coasters.

When I pass through Lancaster PA, I throw my hands in the air.& yell "Sky Princess" ( a lame kiddy coaster at Dutch Wonderland).
all Passengers in my car think I'm an idiot.
Do I qualify as a coaster fanatic?

For posting in this thread, yes.

... if you choose a vacation destination based on what theme park you'd like to visit.

... if you know what page of any school textbook has a picture of a roller coaster.

... if you can correctly name the aforementioned coaster, and you know what park it's at.

... if you've ever ridden a state-of-the-art, multi-million dollar roller coaster, and then complained that there wasn't enough airtime.

... if trim brakes make you sigh.

... if you have a favorite inversion.

If you are a SSC member...

If you only join coaster related sites/ join them for coasters...

Lol. My elementary school had these cool jelly-like rulers. They were really flexible. Great for making inversions.

Cool to know I'm not the only one.

Simply, comment for what you think the rest of the sentence should say.


I'll post a few examples I created:

"you hold CTRL and S to post comments and status's on Facebook."
and
"you correct people when they call an element the wrong name on other sites or in real life."

This solves it, close the thread, ;)
