Things that drive me crazy @ CP:
i kinda get upset at those people who dodge the power tower,hehe
(wonder who would do such a thing??)lol

a person might have had ear surgery as a child and can't handle rapid vertical altitude changes. Happened to me and our party. Oh well I'll just have to ride it tomorrow and Sunday a bunch when I go...
Line jumping and smoking are big peeves with me, but one thing I find most humorous is when there are people in front of you that obviously haven't visited all that much, and they act like they're experts, telling you all about the ride you're about to go on -- as if you've never been before! Sheesh. *Grin* I just let them. One thing that really bothers me, though, is all the bikinis -- whatever your personal opinion, it is a family park, after all!

I get annoyed at people who write on the hand railings while waiting in line and throw there trash where ever they please. It also doesn't make the park look bad.

My biggest pet peave is when you're with someone who wants to go on Raptor when you've just gotten off Mean Streak!!!! Do people have ay idea how big Cedar Point is?
Hey everyone who is talking about the bikinis correct me if I wrong but aren't people only allowd to wear them in Frontier Town section of water rides ?
I hate it when people smoke I don't want second hand smoke or kiss and get all romantic in line. I mean keep your personal life personal.

"Welcome, to the Magnum XL-200... clink clink clink clink clink clink clink clink clink clink clink ... and enjoy your ride."
If you're standing on the ground in Challenge Park, and can fill in the blanks, I think you know what I'm talking about.

i also hate the people who make out in line. Its like everything they see makes them want to kiss.
Theres plenty of hotels around they should just get a room.

I hate smokers, and people who kiss and make out while waiting. Especially when they are take a train off, on MF.
Lets see, Line Jumpers, Smoking in line, its Millennium Force not the millennium (which I have put up a topic about before). Raptor not Rapture...I know it's god like, but its not god...sorry...it's a bird of prey. People who think they know more than they do. I only correct people when they are spooking other riders. The large people with not so large items of clothing. I can understand for a water ride, but come on, the rest of the park, show some respect for other park patrons eye site.

I'm with Jeff on those ridiculous recordings on the Magnum and Raptor lift hills...the recordings that can only be heard from the parking lots...

What I hate most is run on sentences and people who don't know the difference between 'their' & 'there' or 'your' & 'you're'.
Second hand smoke kills. So I suppose i'm a murderer! Whattya want from me???

Abrasive groups of young teens who need to draw attention to themselves by being a)Loud, b)Rude, c)obnoxious(cutting in line, yelling "yo,babe" to other females with your underwear hiked up to your nipples, your hat on backwards, and trying to behave like Kid Rock all apply). If you have to prove to the world how cool you are, you're already losing. You know who you are. Vertically challenged people who weigh 300 lbs and insist on wearing thongs and tube tops. (This also goes for guys in Speedo's-please spare me.) Standing in front of someone in line who sounds like Fran Drescher who will pontificate ad naseum about how their darling Junior had the most wonderful bowel movement this morning. And of course, the scuzzbag with enough BO to induce dry heaves all top the list.
Hey Dave, whats wrong with wearing your hat backwards? Does that automatically make you a punk???
Here are my peeves:
People talking about Magnum sinking, and how it has loops.
Smoking in line (duh!)
People that stare at you for a while. I just wanna hit them when they do that. Maybe there staring off into space, but does it have to be towards me???
Beautiful girls with ugly guys, (common problem that I would like to help fix :))
Saying how Cedar Point sucks, and is so much worse than King's Island. (I actually held back from an argument, I wasn't in the mood)
People actually SITTING on Mantis, and the Ops not doing a thing to stop them! There was this one kid that knees were almost at a 90 degree angle, and came back with tears in his eyes, sure it was a little funny, but they gave him no lecture. Last year my friend was sloching a little, and they almost punched him (not really, but you know what I mean).

What's wrong with having your hat backwards? I turn my hat around in line to keep the sun off the back of my neck. I don't see anything wrong with it, unless it represents some kind of gang.
i dont wear my hat backwards, i dont have a problame with people doing it either. i just hate it when kids turn it slightly to one side or another making them "cool". this might be a problem with society in general, but i hate kids that TRY to fit in. i see it everyday at my stupid school.

My two biggest are on flat rides:
1. When the cars on Monster don't spin enough when ride is in motion. (I think they need oil)
2. Psychotic ride operators on Calypso who think it's funny to spin the car units alone for five minutes before starting up the main turn table.(you know who you are, and STOP IT!)

Speaking of "Psychotic ride operators on Calypso"...
There was a group of about three very young African American kids right in front of us while in line. When the ride stopped, everybody got off, but the three kids in front of us decided to be slick and unlock the gate themselves and fly onto the ride. Well, the ride op was standing near, and literally *pushed* the kids back into the queue, and they were all completely dumbfounded of what he did to them. He then quickly tried to cover his rear by saying, "Oh, I'm sorry". (He looked like he was having a rough night to begin with, and I'd be mad at the kids too, but still. You can't push patrons.)
