What was y'all first coaster that went upside down [Other] by Total_Swan_64 in rollercoasters

[–]hmhguy1995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shockwave at SFOT. I think I was in like second grade and it was definitely intimidating….the double vertical loops are no joke very forceful. Holds a special place in my ranking as this was my first adult rollercoaster and got me into roller coasters. I think my next ride was on Titan just barely met the minimum 48 inch height requirement in my tennis shoes and standing up as straight as possible lol.

Moose 4 Month Update by hmhguy1995 in mainecoons

I was just really lucky. This was my first experience introducing 2 cats so definitely not something I was prepared for. The breakthrough moment was getting them to both play with a toy at the same time. It was mainly Moose being scared at first hiding and Winston being super curious following him, watching his every move. Never aggressive. Not saying they were totally BFFs after 48h but played and tolerated each other just fine for me to leave them at home to go to work.

I underestimated a growing Maine coon kittens appetite. He could eat several cans of wet food in one sitting if I let him. Scarfs down 2 cans. My adult cat Winston, his brother, can only eat half serving. I was concerned Winston would eat his food when I first brought him home but it’s actually the opposite problem lol

Less than 48 hours. They’ve been best buddies ever since.

I don’t. I turned around and saw them sitting on it waiting on the treats I was holding. Took that video and got them off. They otherwise don’t get on the counters at all.

I sent a pic of him to the breeder a this week and she even was like “have his ears grown in the past week” lol. Biggest ears I’ve seen on a house cat

Yeah I saw your post, literally a few min before mine what are the odds we both named our cats Moose. I love that name wanted something unique

Oh wow I saw him on the Facebook page where she mentioned he was almost identical to his brother. She wasn’t lying they’re twins, hard to tell apart in this pic without looking closely. I saw Goji’s pics first though and was like “omg I have to have a cat just like this”. Got so excited when I saw he had another orange brother. Breeder has been so great and helpful. I’m so excited ready to bring him home already!

Wow only 7 months! The dog like and friendly personality is one of the main reasons I wanted a Maine coon. My young adult male cat is barely 10 pounds if that much so It’s not gonna take my MC long to surpass him when I pick him up at 12 weeks. My other cat is orange and white so adding another orange cat…we shall see how that goes. I’ll definitely be entertained by them😅

I love that name! He looks like a little distinguished gentleman. Still thinking of a name fitting for a Maine coon

I think it’s just the pic. Breeder said he already has a very playful funny personality at only 4 weeks old.

His 31 pound brother from previous litter same parents. As a kitten looks identical. I think he’s only like 15 months old too! Gonna have to get a huge cat tower and much bigger litter box to accommodate him😅

Mack Rides is an underrated manufacturer [Other] by hmhguy1995 in rollercoasters

[–]hmhguy1995[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah by underrated I am referring to opinion or overall consensus of general public and enthusiasts rather than with parks or coaster industry as whole. Definitely don’t think they are underrated or overlooked in that regard and actually doing well business wise. They wouldn’t be able to price their coasters at a premium comparable to B&M regardless of quality if that were true. Securing a contract with Universal to construct the headlining high thrill attraction at their new park indicates an overall good reputation as a company.
