Roller coasters: not so much

Wednesday [livejournal.com profile] classicaljunkie and I went to Six Flags. It was weird and nobody had any fun. Basically, her approach to amusement parks is to ride the 500-foot coasters over and over until she can't walk anymore. Mine is to go on the baby rides with my eyes squeezed shut while I go FUCKFUCKSHITCOCKNONOAAAAAAAAAAA, and then sit for a while to recover. A basic incompatibility was thus discovered.

But then we went shopping and had coffee and felt better.

I am fine with coasters so long as I take Dramamine. Otherwise I puke bright orange slime, or maybe that was because I drank too much Mountain Dew Code Red and ate a giant elephant ear that one time I was at Cedar Point.

Anyway, coasters are great so long as you remember they are not real.

Dramamine helps me, too. I've never vomited from riding a r.c., to my recollection, but after anything more severe than what's in Disneyland, I have to go sit down and feel bad for about 15-20 minutes or so.

as a total aside

that is the most amazing icon you have. Not quite sure what the flaming toast is all about, but it captivates me.

Oh my, you should see the whole video then - it's for the song "Move Your Feet" by Junior Senior, and it was animated by the lovely animators at Shynola on a Amiga using Deluxe Paint (!).
