I just found out..

I just found out that a person I work with, her boyfriend design coasters for B&M. This is cool. he lives Europe somewhere.
Obviously, you're new here. One thing that is really annoying is when people start ambiguous topics. There is plenty of room to provide a full topic title. With a line like "I just found out", it could be anything. It could be a) You're dog has fleas b) Your grandmother passed away c) Cedar Fair bought Six Flags Worlds of Adventure d) a Dragster train moved two feet e) "Friends" won't be returning next year etc. You're setting up the reader for so many possibilities, yet it was all a big letdown. Take a little bit more time and observe before posting. You'll get the swing of things in no time. *** Edited 7/22/2004 3:10:01 PM UTC by Intamin Fan***
Yah, be carful what you say and post because some people on this site can get pretty snappy for no reason.

Oh, and Welcome to Coasterbuzz.

Welcome to CoasterBuzz =)

Well, not to sound mean, but...I'm pretty sure that very few people will believe you. And, even if someone out there actually does believe you, they probably won't care too much.

Aside from that...does the Lemon Chill guy know him, too? =)

Take a look at the view/reply ratio.

Ok...to be fair, it's on par with most topics. But my point is that with a title like that, and content like this, it's akin to crying wolf. *** Edited 7/22/2004 4:00:18 PM UTC by janfrederick***

OMG, I'm a CreHo.

I just found out that I saved a bunch on my car insurance by switching to Geico.

sorry couldn't resist.

Sorry to disappoint all of you people, but on the other hand I figured you'd ask some questions. Like the new roller coaster he's developing for World's of Fun. I'll go post somewhere else where people take internet message boards so damn serious.

I enjoyed my short stay at coaster buzz.

I was waiting for the leak!

The irony is that most people don't take things seriously here. i.e. My introduction

Stick around... you just have to get to know us.

Sigh...

So sad... delusions of grandure... especially when they is about someone elses "grandure" (as in "a person I work with, her boyfriend").


"Yes... well... VICTORY IS MINE!"

You probably ment "grandeur". Its ok to insult me, but please do it correctly. I don't think I'm better then anyone, but since I had a connection in the roller coaster industry I thought it'd be cool to let people know.

Lies.

If you want to correct folks around here, you'd better start by using "than" when you are supposed to use "than" instead of using "then" when you are supposed to use "than". ;)

Why would you want to go somewhere where people take them serious?

And if you meant to use a "don't" in there somewhere, does that mean that you would rather have someone not take your topic seriously? I'm confused (which isn't saying much).

Isn't it ironic?

Good points, jf... ;)

No one's disappointed. If there was any interest at all in receiving unconfirmed info from someone who claims two degrees of separation from a person who supposedly works at B&M, then we'd have asked.

I think the second half of the comment reveals who's really disappointed. Sorry we didn't treat you like the god you clearly are. Maybe your time would be better spent amusing some of the kiddies on other forums?

CrazyforCoasters, that was priceless. My parents hate the Geico commericials, but I think they're great! The one that has gotten me twice is the one for balding men. I thought it was a real infocommercial. I also love the one with the soap opera theme ("I saved, doesn't that mean anything to you?"). Only in a soap opera do people talk to each other with one person's back turned to the other.

Buckstah, not trying to ruin your fun, but why would this guy tell you about a specific ride he's developing for a specific park? I would think that would be confidential information that his employer wouldn't be too happy to get leaked out.
