I wonder if he called Mike.

sounds like fun to me.

I wonder if he's using his life savings to cover ticket costs for the rollercoaster, not to mention paying the pills
 
2002-08-26 12:36:48 PM
GOOT!
 
2002-08-26 12:36:59 PM
Damn, I want his battery.
 
2002-08-26 12:37:25 PM
Was it a vibrating phone?
 
2002-08-26 12:38:20 PM
Great use of the dumbass tag
 
2002-08-26 12:38:36 PM
Damn people driving rollercoasters while tlaking on their cellphones....

oh.

So, does this guy have to wait on line for each time or does the park just let him stay in his seat? I mean, some of these coasters have a line that can take over an hour, so 10 hrs of coasters could just be 10 rides...

Imagine if he had two heads... imagine!!!

Sign at entrance to ride:
"You must be at least this tall to be an American dumbass who wants to ride this rollercoaster for three consecutive months."
 
2002-08-26 12:40:57 PM
First line of the article "An American teacher has ridden a rollercoaster..."

The headline "German teacher spends 3 months on a rollercoaster"

nice work. ass

I didn't know your brother was a teacher, Mike
:)

I imagine his brain is in some pretty bad shape at this point. He will probably die soon. But if he doesn't, he would make a great fighter pilot.
 
2002-08-26 12:44:04 PM
Can you hear me now? Gooooooooooooooooooooood
 
2002-08-26 12:44:05 PM
I wonder if his phone has a browser built in. He could be farking.

And yes I want his battery too.

"Can you write cliches now? Good!"
 
2002-08-26 12:45:33 PM
"I've been on this rollercoaster for quarter of a year now, so I am kind of anxious for the ending."

God, it really didn't strike me until I read this sentence. How .

What a great claim to fame. His mother must be so proud.
 
2002-08-26 12:50:36 PM
I bet he pees on the rollercoaster too...
 
2002-08-26 12:51:45 PM
a better example of ULTIMATE ASSCLOWN i have never seen.
 
2002-08-26 12:52:21 PM
I just like the thought that he is so blase about a roller coaster now that he can sit there and read the paper.
 
2002-08-26 12:52:39 PM
fap fap fap fap fap fap... hate to be the guy in the seat behind him...
 
2002-08-26 12:53:50 PM
"Koennen Sie mich jetz hoeren?"
(excuse the lack of umlauts)
 
2002-08-26 12:53:54 PM
How unfun.
 
2002-08-26 12:56:05 PM
I wonder if he will expect that "clickety-clackety" sound before every climax in his life now. Imagine life's soundtrack if that were to happen.....
 
2002-08-26 12:56:44 PM
Pass an asshat to that man!
 
2002-08-26 12:58:20 PM
Click.....click......click...click..click....AaaRrrrGggHhh! Was it good for you?
 
2002-08-26 01:03:48 PM
In other news, yet another fair operator wises up to abuse of those ride bracelets.
 
2002-08-26 01:07:02 PM
OMG! These posts are fvckin' crackin' me up! thanks!

I just watched a show about this guy on discovery or one of their sister stations. He took several breaks each day, and they gave him special treatment (meaning he didn't have to wait in line) because of the publicity it brought the park. But he did actually sleep on the thing. He had to save up his breaks to use in the morning so they could do their daily maintainence.

Thank you FARK for justifying my observance of that retarded documentary.

My guess is he is an American teacher who teaches the subject of the German language. :)
 
2002-08-26 02:09:24 PM
Can you hear me now?



Good.
 
2002-08-26 02:22:34 PM
Damn, what kind of frigin person would want to be on a rollercoaster for anything more than a day? So, they can set a world record? Oh wow, now there's something good to put on a resume...
 
2002-08-26 02:40:16 PM
lame german language joke:

what comes between fear and sex?

who was the other guy who was doing this..?
 
2002-08-26 06:45:26 PM
What kind of phone? My batteries die after a day and a half, and I haven't been on a new coaster with AC adapter plugs.
 
2002-08-26 08:09:51 PM
I haven't met him yet.

It's the same guy that did the same thing in St. Louis last year. At least this year he picked a coaster that doesn't jackhammer your spine...
 
2002-08-26 08:43:31 PM
Oh come on, Mme. Surely you give him to much credit.
 
2002-08-26 11:05:39 PM
Wimp. Now, a REAL devotee would have spent 24 hours a day on that rollercoaster (cutting a deal with the amusement park for extra staffing, barf bags, etc.). In fact, in the name of science, he probably could have gotten NASA to fund the whole thing!
 
2002-08-26 11:28:29 PM
I just want to know how does he take care of his bathroom needs? On second thought maybe I don't want to know.
