Fear the Four Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 All I have been talking about is the SOB closing. Needless to say, my parents want to tape my mouth shut sometimes. I always talk to my parents about Kings Island and they always say I don't care lol Quote
CoasterFreak45 Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 My mom hates coasters so I think it gets annoying, but me and my dad can carry a conversation. Quote
Fear the Four Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 My mom hates coasters so I think it gets annoying, but me and my dad can carry a conversation. If they do talk to me about Kings Island It's probably about rides from the past like The Bat and King cobra. Quote
Whales_Rock Posted July 12, 2009 Author Posted July 12, 2009 OMG, me too. My mom is so mad at me for JUST talking to her about King's Island. She started lecturing me on how I'm always obsessed and worried about things. Quote
Fear the Four Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 Quit talking about Kings Island for a week or two and then maybe they will take you. Quote
HTCO Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 I feel bad for my parents. They don't hear the end of how I feel about KI! lol. Quote
The Interpreter Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 My mom used to ask constantly if I would ever grow up and outgrow my obsession with parks. Lately, she's finally stopped asking, and even asking when I am going next where! Quote
KIBOB Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 ^Same here, my parents can get pretty agitated when i start talking about ki...sometimes they even seem surprised by how much i know about the park and its history, i guess that it is the ideologists like us who keep the spirit going and the park evolving around our and the the public's input Quote
DropZone99 Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 My parent's get annoyed about me talking about Kings Island and Coasters in General. Literately everything she talks about or mentions, I try to relate that to Coasters. I'm bad about asking if they will take me to KI, so I just keep talking about KI and think they will say "If I take you to KI will you shut up!" But they never do, they just change the subject or roll their eyes. Quote
CoasterFreak45 Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 I hate driving so my dad is my provider of transport. Since we have gold passes, he will take me there anytime I want. As long as he isn't working. Quote
KIBOB Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 ^i know right....anyways back to the original question; just be patient. Maybe make some side money somehow and make plans with a few of your friends to go sometime, you could even do what a lot have said and save money or ask for a pass for your birthday or christmas. Passes are truley an incredible value. I saved up some money from working and bought my pass for this year. Quote
The Interpreter Posted July 13, 2009 Posted July 13, 2009 ...I saved up some money from working and bought my pass for this year. That's what I did, too. And one for Flags, Busch, Camden, Dollywood, uh...I think I had best stop now! Quote

Whales_Rock Posted July 13, 2009 Author Posted July 13, 2009 Yep, we will get a season pass, and my parents said they'll take me in August. I'm trying to see if any of my friends will take me within the next week, because after that I'm off to camp, and I want to TRY to go twice. But ill be lucky to go once Quote
dragsterfan420 Posted July 13, 2009 Posted July 13, 2009 ^Well it seems like you made some ground. At least you get to go now. Quote
Beast Man Posted July 13, 2009 Posted July 13, 2009 This is sooooo wrong. On sooo many levels. Don't make it seem like you're wanting to kill yourself over a theme park. I'm suprised no one has said something like,"No it's an amusement park." Quote
Touchdown Posted July 13, 2009 Posted July 13, 2009 Thankfully my parents are enthusiasts too, but not as much as me . I only have my trusty Platinum Pass this year, but Ive made it to HW, DW and Noah's Ark (waterpark) in additon to CP and KI so its been a good year. I also will have one more trip to HW this fall and if all goes according to plan Ill end my season at Valleyfair! and Nick U @ MOA and who knows depending on where my football team goes for a bowl, Disneyland and Knots is a possibility. Next year Disney World and Universal are in the cards, in addition to KI and CP. I will also be moving somewhere next year, so if its not Ohio Ill go to that park too. That said, when I was in high school except for the big 2 week summer vacation road trip (to cities, national parks, historic sites and amusement parks) I got maybe one trip to SFGAm (lived in WI) and Noah's Ark a year. When you get your own money its amazing how many more parks you start visiting. Quote
Whales_Rock Posted July 13, 2009 Author Posted July 13, 2009 ^ I wish my dad would let me use my money 0________________0 Quote
