I’m no fun at amusement parks and carnivals, because rides like that get all grades of “Hell to the no, I’m not riding that” from me. I’m mean just look at that rickety ass piece of shit. Sounds like it needs a couple tubs of axle grease on it, which rings those warning bells of minimal preventative maintenance.
I’m always amazed at what human beings consider fun. Seriously, someone operated a person launching trebuchet (warning, it closed for probably the reason you think.)
