Do your friends think your a freak?

My friends are real chill so they think its cool that I am so crazy about coasters. Most of my friends, I can have a decent conversation about coasters and they know me as the coaster freak. I was wondering though if anyone gets ragged on by friends or other people for being so into coasters?

Hmm... I think there is another thread already open about this. Anyway, the line I always get is "It's JUST a rollercoaster!" I think it's a conspiracy because all of my friends say that exact line...

my friends are just like "you REALLY like roller coasters, don't you...?", and i can tell they're thinking "It's JUST a rollercoaster!"

i agree, it could be a conspiracy...

Friends!??? What are those? To busy riding to worry about anyone... Oh, sorry, I got obsessed there for a moment! :)

A lot of people think that very exact thing about me! This one kid at school calles me "coasterboy" or "coaster freak." Hey but I don't mind I actually take it as a compliment!

Two words...Heck Yes! ;) :)

Oh my goodness, YES! Fortunately my best friend is my fellow coaster ridding pal, but some people do tell me that it is just a coaster and I reply to them that I get a big rush out of it since I'm really into track and no other sports. I try to keep it quiet, I mean I don'twant to be labled 'The Coaster Kid'. But yea, some people wonder why I like coasters so much.

A lot of people tells me ¿Why do you like roller coasters THAT much? It's just a roller coaster...actually my best friend always used to ask me that, and called me coaster freak, at this point, he is coaster freak too, and most of my friends at least understand why I like them so much, and actually they like them a lot, however, at least in my school, there's not anyone who likes them like I do...

My friends(and basically everyone I know) know that I'm obsessed with coasters, and have accepted it.  Most of them think that it's cool, but they do get annoyed when I talk about them too much.

I basically keep it quiet from my friends.

Well, I can't exaggerate enough How much I am obsessed with coasters.  I have made so many coaster posters at kinkos, they know me by name! Not one inch of my room is paint, it is all coaster photos and posters.  My comp. too! I have Cedar Point price tags on it!

No, if my friends thought I was a freak we probably wouldn't be hanging out together.  They might think I tend to talk about a couple of my hobbies a bit much.  But I can't recall any of my friends calling me a freak.

I avoid talking to them about it, I try to avoid being called a freak. The only kid at school that knows I am obsessed with coasters is my best friend.

Yup, my girlfriend especially. I like when people try to stump me with coaster questions, of course they cant cause they're not obsessed like me!!!!! HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA!

Oh wait, thats crazy......

My friends think I'm a freak, but that has no realation to coasters. ;)

Seriously though, they do think I'm kinda crazy. Whenever they're in my room, and they see my 2 walls of coaster crap, they always look at me strange. Also, whenever someone mentions a coaster, or something related, I always pipe in and end up giving too much information about coasters, which usually results in "Umm... yeah." and them  inching away.

Oh well, what can I say? I'm crazy. :)

This one kid i know thinks its childish to be into coasters. When he sees me drawing them in school he nags me about how immature i am and that only " 2 year olds like that kind of stuff " So i tell him,well 2 year olds dont know what LIMs are, and neither do you.
