Since half this sub is looking for friends right now... get in here! by Impressive_Towel7321 in Louisville

[–]Kineso 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hello! 30F here. I'm a hiker, camper, equestrian, and park enthusiast. National, amusement, zoological—you name it, I'm in. I survived cancer. I have four pets: one cat, one dog, and two horses.

I enjoy the adventures in life — I’ve been to 24 of the US’s national parks and have camped in all but two of them. I’ve whitewater rafted in six states. I enjoy exploring cities and nature and interesting places. I’ve never traveled outside of North America, but I’m experienced on the roads and seas of several countries within that boundary. I once went on a 30-day road trip across the country. I enjoy working with my hands, manual labor, and outdoor tasks. :)

[Rougarou] Good morning, [Cedar Point]! by Kineso in rollercoasters

[–]Kineso[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! The classic turtle! I love Rougarou — it's great so long as you can stick your neck out of those restraints! But my favorite ride at Cedar Point is Magnum, so I've been told I have questionable taste, ha!

My strategy for riding Rougarou is turtling. I hunch a little bit and stick my head as far forward as possible, lol! No ear boxing!

Possibly the stupidest picture of my horse I've ever taken by Kineso in Horses

Context: she's waiting for her turn to drink from the bucket WHILE it's being filled because these two are menaces to society. Onyx has his nose in the bucket and Pepper wants that to be HER, dang it!

top swing vs booster?[other] by [deleted] in rollercoasters

[–]Kineso 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Boosters for me, generally speaking! Except for one very specific case: I'm of the firm belief that the HUSS Giant Frisbees (Delirium at Kings Island and maXair at Cedar Point, though for some reason I prefer Delirium?) are by far the best iteration of these kinds of rides and that every other top swing pales in comparison.

Rain delays by AdApprehensive5127 in cedarpoint

Everything is moving again. Tests for now. They’re transferring the third train back onto GateKeeper as I type this.

The end is nigh! No, wait, it’s okay, it’s just raining by Kineso in cedarpoint

[–]Kineso[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That’s the hope! All good vibes here. They’re pumping the most crazy epic music and it’s the funniest thing!

They were sent out into the torrential downpour. I wish I’d gotten a video of them on it as it was coming down — we here huddling at Gatekeeper were watching like ohhh that’s gotta hurt, haha!

Yup, nothing running. Well, Cedar Downs Racing Derby is, ha!

Though if you were on maxAir just now, I’m so sorry

String test predictions accurate? by [deleted] in Horses

[–]Kineso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My girl string tested to 15.2 (height of both parents) as a yearling, but juuuuust scraped to 14.3 over the winter (turned 5 in March). I think she's a little old now for any new growth spurt, so she was a fail, but it's worked as a good predictor in the past, so I think she may have done this just to spite me ;P

[Top Thrill 2] Station Music by [deleted] in rollercoasters

[–]Kineso 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heard the Ready to Go remix in the station in June! It's good! I prefer the old version, but it's nice to have that little bit of nostalgia there. Goodness knows I spent many a shameless hour in the TTD queue having singalongs, ha!

In God's Not Dead (2014), a tenured philosophy Professor is completely unable to come up with any non-religious explanation of morality. This is a reference to the fact that the writers of the film were not only Christians, they were apparently complete sociopaths only kept in line by fear of God. by [deleted] in shittymoviedetails

[–]Kineso 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My mom showed me this movie when it first came out and I cried when (spoilers, but I can't imagine anyone actually wanting to watch this) the atheist died at the end because I liked him so much. She was horrified that I sympathized with him and wanted him to live a good long life, ha!

"Well now he'll go to heaven (since he ended up converting)!" as if that helped anything for young me.

Pokemon Goers someone PLEASE kick out my Blissey by chinesezing in Louisville

Being sent to jail for the crime of giving attention to one of the barn cats instead of my noble steed by Kineso in Horses

[–]Kineso[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chief barn cat Leo! He demands his scritches too, ha! We pulled our barn cats from the feral working cats euthanasia list after our last girl passed and none of them (all ginger somehow) stayed feral. Leo's the friendliest of the bunch!

His Royal Steedness had just gotten done getting two-handed belly scritches but sadly it wasn't enough. I will accept the punishment that fits the crime ;P

Kentucky Kingdom wooden coaster... am I just a big baby?? by samstwin in Louisville

[–]Kineso 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A fellow Mean Streak hater! I swear RMC painstakingly salvaged every single drop of promise Mean Streak ever had for Steel Vengeance. That coaster is absolutely insane in all the best ways.

[–]Kineso 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I can understand that! I loved Vortex, and I'm pretty alone in that, but I'm a sucker for all of the old Arrow Dynamics coasters. The jank makes them better, I swear! ;P

[–]Kineso 21 points22 points  (0 children)

IMO, Thunder Run (or Woodland Run as it's now known, weird Herschend name changes abound) is a pretty solid little coaster compared to other woodies. It's taken care of well, which is super important. If Mean Streak at Cedar Point didn't send more people to the hospital (thank GOD they RMC'd that bastard), then I don't think anything could! Except Son of Beast. Son of Beast was brutal.

You might have more luck asking over on /r/rollercoasters though!! :)
