I like the bumper cars. Nothing more satisfying than SLAMMING into your (adult) child's car, or your SO's!

Im not keen on it, but my sister usually wants to. I always feel picked on
But really it's such a fun way to mess around with total strangers though. It feels nice to just have fun. That's the best part about the fair, it feels like a community, between banter with the owners of the rides, and just having fun with everyone

The only bad part is that we sometimes have men hit on us and it wrecks the mood. Workers, too. So inappropriate

I like the simple rides, like the 40 metre swings, it's super relaxing and I can see my house from up there! The ones like the screamer I'm not keen on, the drop feels unsettling and the seats don't actually feel safe. They got new upgraded seats so I might go on it again, though I dislike that drop feeling in my stomach

I wouldn't say many of the rides here are childish, but most of them are family ones- not too scary.
They had super high ones that shot up over 50 metres and went upside down, round and round. It looked petrifying. I didn't even like standing under it, lol! But they got rid of those last year, they seem to be leaning more towards family fun, these days

Honestly, give me a good old fashioned carousel and I'm happy! I've never been a big fan of the wild rides to begin with, not since the Tilt-A-Whirl made me sick when I was younger. I can still be dragged onto *some* of them, but anything that spins is a big NOPE.

I like the bumper cars and the wagon train up and down thing (I have forgotten how to speak English apparently) the ones shown in the videos were WAY too scary for me

The only "train" thing I'll go on is the ghost House. Its fairly tame tbh, it could be improved
You get on the train, it goes through a door into pitch black darkness, creepy noises, lights flash, creepy dolls hanging up and fake skeletons moving towards you
Loops, goes back outside, back in and while it's pitch black there's a drop, it speeds down and then it ends.
Not scary, but it is a bit of silly fun! It's a new one this year so maybe it'll be better.

I don't mind spins, or heights, but combine both and throw in a big drop, heck no!
I almost passed out on one of those terrifying ones.
I generally prefer relaxing rides, simple fun or cheap thrills. Nothing too crazy, nothing too dull

I chose a celibate lifestyle because it goes with my beliefs. I've been mocked and called a liar and if I talk to anyone about anything even innocuous as it is I get accused by neighbors of having sex with them which includes the plumber, my tree service ,and close personal same gender friends and that includes my ex who has established himself as gay and not interested in females at all. Yes he spends the night at my home in the "guest room" because he's over a thousand miles away from his own bedroom! His son appreciates it that he gets to see his dad for a week or two. I think this forum needs to be about people raising chickens and the problems we face in doing that in trying to keep happy and healthy flocks.I'm not about to start a chicken forum soly for celibates like myself. Gays, trans and bis have the same chicken problems as the rest of us. Everyone needs to get along and everyone need to feel comfortable. None of it needs to be about sex or gender identity unless it is actually concerning a bird. I hated the reply that made it seem like LGBT are abnormal human beings. I think they do being humans just fine. They need jobs and to live and be able to persue happiness the same as everyone else that isn't LGBT. This is not a joke to me and I think cheap shots at people are just rude.

Someone needs to read past the first few pages, as well as check what forum they are in.

Yes, we raise chickens and ducks and rabbits and goats. There are separate sections for those. This is the social Random Ramblings forum.

I am also taking every off colour comment, or strange ones, with a grain of salt today considering what day it is.

Same. The drop thing would have Mr screaming like there's no tomorrow

I am deathly afraid of heights, and the dark, and jump-scares. Whenever my boyfriend wants to watch a horror movie, I tell him 'not until you're here physically so I can climb into your lap and hide my face against your chest!'

Screaming helps, or just exhaling, it stops that drop feeling. But the worst ride I've ever been on, honestly, just impossible
As soon as it started to swing high, the seats turning, my whole body went limp and I couldn't make a sound, could hardly open my eyes.
My sister genuinely thought I passed out!
I only went on it because she bullied me into it because it was her birthday lol. Never again!

The drop of doom was fun too. They didn't have it the last year I went though, sadly. Not sure why, I'm not great with heights, but that one was fine. Maybe because I'm seated and strapped in and not free standing? I barely blink am eye at the fall, it's the climbing that gets me nervous

Awwh
I hide behind my pillow. Works great

I don't mind horror, just dislike graphic details. Heights I love, as long as its not spinny or droppy!
