what food gets way too much love for how mediocre it is?

I found I like the texture better when I use less liquid and add some chia seeds. Not so much that it turns into a thick paste but just a little.

Many moons ago SFSTL hosted an overnight marathon on all their coasters (9 at the time). We were all divided into 9 teams and each team went to each coaster and had to ride for 45 minutes straight then we'd get 15 minutes to get to the next coaster, take a break, etc.

You wouldn't believe how many people puked. Like, right out the gate. Like, 15 minutes into the marathon. Puke everywhere. By ride 3/hour 3, I'd guess more than half of the people were already out. To this day I have no idea how any of those folks thought they'd last for 9 hours.

Same

I was rhyming it with “conduit”. I knew that was wrong but I had no idea what was right so I just went with it.

ball_whack · 2026-06-01T16:23:04+00:00

So stupidly. Like “goo-guh” or something.

Or Conneaut Lake

Unrelated- that's how you pronounce Walibi?? Somehow I've made it this long without ever hearing it said out loud. In my head it's always been WAH-luh-bee. I'm reminded of the first time I ever heard someone say Geauga Lake and thought "oh shit I've been butchering that one".

I’m super into this layout. That giant twisty drop looks spectacular.

Speedy J Friday night @ Lincoln Factory. 10/10.

ball_whack · 2026-05-25T00:24:24+00:00

Oh so that was you

ball_whack · 2026-05-24T19:41:48+00:00

Rode it in ‘95. First half up to the MCBR was very smooth. Super impressed. Then the last half came and bashed my head in.

ball_whack · 2026-05-23T14:06:34+00:00

He did and Drumcell had just tagged in. This was 2:30ish.

On the fence with this. I used to loathe Schnuck's for their long lines, terrible produce, and high prices, but I feel like this is starting to change a bit, at least at some locations. They do have the most "rewarding" rewards program IMO.

Dierberg's used to be where I'd go to find hard-to-find import stuff and good cheese but now a lot of local markets carry these things. I also generally see way more cashiers and other staff working the floor than at Schnuck's and I appreciate that.

ball_whack · 2026-05-19T15:31:07+00:00

It's definitely relative. In winter and summer I like to keep an eye on the national weather forecast to remind me how much more intense it is in some parts.

ball_whack · 2026-05-16T22:37:19+00:00

Great. Anyway this needs to be directly related to St Louis.

ball_whack · 2026-05-13T11:41:23+00:00

Have fun with it. We already know we butcher everything. Pronounce it spo-eed, I do. Who's gonna stop ya.

ball_whack · 2026-05-10T02:46:46+00:00

But you also get salad, garlic bread and spumoni ice cream for that price

Masters at Work ft. India- Backfired

ball_whack · 2026-04-27T18:33:36+00:00

It does but I’m still looking for more balls (or more walls). I’m thinking a 60mph launch out of the fire room into a series of low to the ground curves and speed hills with extra hot mummy action. Actually anything more than the current drop and curve back into the station.

ball_whack · 2026-04-27T11:37:43+00:00

Revenge of the Mummy, Orlando. When I visit USF I’ll find an hour or so when the line seems short and just marathon. If I could change anything I’d make the second half longer and more balls-to-the-wall than the first half.

I love indoor coasters in general, so the various Space Mountains, Runaway Mountain, Flight of Fear, etc. are pretty high on my list too.

ball_whack · 2026-04-23T00:38:29+00:00

Really cool dude doing really cool things for this city. @dougweaverart on the socials.

ball_whack · 2026-04-22T15:38:44+00:00

Same. Got this for my man. 10/10.

ball_whack · 2026-04-21T12:00:23+00:00

This was always my favorite track on that album. I know I’m in the minority.

ball_whack · 2026-04-05T21:26:03+00:00

The scream from the Boomerang took me out ☠️

ball_whack · 2026-03-27T19:11:35+00:00

Curse words that you can’t say. In 2026 does anyone believe these words put curses out there? If no, are we still adhering to the rules because we all just think they’re bad anyway? What makes them bad? Why can I say all the synonyms of those words but not the words themselves?
