- You know that you're a generous coaster geek if you seriously love the "high-five" action with single riders! :D

You have your high school graduation ceremony at Freedom Hall, but you walk away from your graduation and right over to Kentucky Kingdom since you have a pass, it's right next door, and your graduation is way too boring. Even if it means skipping your diploma.

You think a roller coaster should be built on top of Trump's border wall.

Your favorite level in Cuphead is 'Carnival Kerfuffle' just because of the roller coaster. And then you try to recreate said roller coaster in either Planet Coaster or No Limits 2.

You want there to be 324 sequels to Kung Fury just so that there can be a Kung Fury 325.

One reason you state that the US is the greatest country in the world is because it has more roller coasters than any other nation on Earth. Bonus points if that's the only reason.

??? you associate some sounds you hear in daily life to rollercoaster sounds
??? you disagree with your physics teacher who says that rollercoasters can't hit 5g and start a discussion about that

*Dem feels when you know this isn't true and that both Europe and China both have a lot more Rollercoasters. Which are nations too. :lol:

- You see a rollercoaster for less than a second in a random ad on TV and then promptly rewind the TV to figure it what coaster it is
- As a kid you used wooden train sets to make coaster layouts
- You have memorized some coaster layouts the point where you can play them back in your head when you're bored

I do this all the time. Bonus points if you've also memorized some of the long, twisty and/or heavily themed layouts people make in No Limits 2. That seems easier to do with B&Ms than with heavily themed rides or element-dense woodies.

-You actually bothered to visit any theme parks at all in 2020
-You would still go to theme parks even if despite requiring guests to be vaccinated, they still required triple masking, sanitized everything every single ride cycle, and kicked people out just for getting within 5.9 feet of another person
-You watch this Family Guy clip and your first thought is either "why does a wooden coaster have OTSR's?" or "is this supposed to be an RMC hybrid?"
