For some reason I got stuck on calling MT Chicken Tenders. My daughter finds it funny, so at least I'm cool in the eyes of her.

What we need is different nicknames depending on the vibe we are to project. Rapper, stripper and pornstar nicknames are required by law What other types do we need? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I reading that page wrong? Items 1 and 2 indicate the term had a negative connotation up until the 80’s but after that (3 & 4) it’s meaning became positive and appears to remain that way currently. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck_E_Cheese Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 I am thinking Orion could be known as "The Iron" due to the comparisons to a flat ride. I am 'pressed' to ride it soon as soon as the 'wrinkles' are worked out prior to opening day. I hope to be 'Permanent(ly) (im)pessed' by the ride and the 'ironing board' looking legs holding up the track. ...keep it going... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purdude86 Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Agree that the name is short and simple enough to not need a nickname (like Banshee), but Ori was the first thought I had as well. Thne when trees grow back in more night rides could be Ori and the Blind Forest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VortexBFForever Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Last fall, a friend and I decided on the nickname of Oreo. We got the idea while riding Vortex, so I am definitely sticking with it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dude Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 I will be calling it “The Southside Blues”. First in reference to the great view from the lift hill of that empty plot of land just south of it where Vortex stood. Second for the color of Orion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Ding Dong Posted March 7, 2020 Author Share Posted March 7, 2020 Will have to mull Oreo over for awhile. I kind of like it, but the colors are not right and it is kind of Androidish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
