I was in the line for AE once and this guy was talking to his group about how they wanted to tear it down. he said it was because it was so big, they could put in three more coasters. I said to him, first of all, its not that big. They could one, maybe two in here. Then i said, even if they had the space, they dont have the money. And you could tell he knew i was right, but to look good, he tried to tell me i was wrong. And THATS where i get pissed off when they dont know what theyre saying but they try to tell one of us were wrong.

^Yeah I do that all the time when I am in line by myself and there is no one to talk to 8)

One time I was in line for dejavu and there was a miscatch on tower two. I was just about to get to the steps when everyone in front of me started to leave the line. They were like "there was a power outage and so the trains motor cant go until the power is back". So I was like "there might have been a power outage but that because the catch car on the tower couldnt move to catch the train....there isnt a motor on the train. Then she was acting all cool and said, "duh, when are there ever brakes in a loop", "rollercoasters can only brake on stright pieces of track". And I told her thats not true and the brakes are there incase theres a miscatch and so the train doesnt keep going and get stuck somewhere else. So they were mad and left...turns out...it was just a normal miscatch :D

^ Well I didnt really easedrop. I was trying to move ahead and they were trying to pass me. But I do admit, I easedrop when I am in line all the time, but most of those times, I just laugh with my friends out it.

1: DejaVu, there was an excessive amount of seat-stealing by people that didnt want to sit in B seats and people freaking out about their restraint not locking when they clearly didnt follow directions. Dont have to worry about it anymore though.

2: River Rocker, people love to stand on that ride for no reason.

3: Tie - Rue Le Dodge, Ricochet, and Ragin Cajun. Complete lack of respect for the height requirement. Too many parents see the height stick and think "cant be that bad, whatever" and send their kids in line anyway, then after they wait in line get very upset the child cannot ride. Happens at every ride, but these rides are by far the worst.

That made me laugh. If you wait in line you hear "ONLY BUCKLE YOUR ORANGE SAFETY BELT, AND LEAVE YOUR GREEN HARNESS IN THE AIR" about 25-30 times in the course of an hour :lol:

...people DO NOT listen
