Get excited because you think Rocky Mountain Construction posted an update to their facebook but in reality it's just a Medical Center showing off their new office. There is also a construction company in my town building apartments with the initials RMC

...you get excited when you hear that your physics lab is to design a roller coaster.
...you then get frustrated when the lab procedures say "your roller coaster must be traveling at a rate so that it doesn't fall off." :x

You're so much of a geek that your dad takes all of your K'nex coaster parts, lays it out in the yard, and runs over it with a lawn mower while telling you to get a job, and your asshole brother films it and puts it on YouTube.
