I never understood the earthquake worry, either. If your building is built to follow earthquake codes you're fine, and don't hang your goon katanas on the wall.

And calling a city "Philadelphia without the historical significance" isn't a compliment, lol.

dorney park is not terrible, it is very good. it's basically a slightly scaled down version of Cedar Point, which is considered one of the best roller coaster parks in the world.

this is a ride at cedar point, very famous one:

quote:

Magnum XL-200, colloquially known as simply Magnum, is a steel roller coaster built by Arrow Dynamics at Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio. When built in 1989, it was the tallest, fastest, and steepest complete-circuit roller coaster in the world as well as the first hypercoaster – a roller coaster that exceeds 200 feet (61 m) in height

dorney park has pretty much an exact replica, called steel force. a bunch of the rides at dorney park are copies of rides at cedar point.

yeah, i was insulting the gently caress out of Allentown.

also :laffo: at people trying to defend Dorney Park. sure the rides are fun, but it's goddamn expensive and kind of dirty. i also had quite a few friends in high school who were employed there and they all hated working there. just go like 40 minutes away to Knoebles. it's exponentially better.

knoebles is terrible, because the rides are poo poo, and the only point of going to a ride park is to ride good rides.

you better believe i want a giant steel monstrosity that is going to expose me to inhuman g-forces.

"it's dirty." so is the subway. i'm sure it's hell working there, how could it not be? of course it's expensive, you think it's cheap to build gigantic steel monstrosities? it costs like 2 imax movie tickets.

I live in city around 100k, there are things to do, they cost money. As I get older I feel more like becoming a Renaissance man like old farmers and making my own "culture" rather than aping something temporarily hot and with it.

I grew up where we had fires and could see the stars and piss everywhere except in town, also we didn't get arrested on private property for doing things we liked.

You think a building standard is going to save your rear end from a force of nature? Maybe it will help in case of a little baby quake, but who's worried about those anyways.

i remember when i was in high school i had a friend who worked at dorney park over the summer and he brought in his employee handbook one. We were looking at the pictures of the park managers and the guy in charge of the games and prizes was a sleazy looking rat faced guy with an eyepatch. most likely lost the eye to an angry park goer.

I worked at six flags when I was 15, we had special name tags, so all young employees were lovingly referred to as piss tags.

I remember being so mad at this girl because she was using her night off to come back up to the park, I was :psyduck: for a while after that one. I never went back except once for our senior trip.

i never saw the handbook but i did remember hearing that employee training was 8 straight hours, which seems really absurd to someone who's never worked at an amusement park

okay i will pay your price then. thanks for understanding my desire to negotiate from a position of zero leverage.

Hey man, you can get groped for free on the subway.

There is also the chance of being mugged.
