The problem here is that Disney has become a monopoly. There used to be a Hanna-Barbera alternative for 40 year old emotional infants.

Does Six Flags not exist anymore for the theme park crowd that didn’t care about Disney characters and 3 hour lines?

Six Flag parks are very have or have not.
The one in San Antonio has a lot of new construction and characters and stuff. Fresh paint and new rides…
The one in Dallas is attempting to become sadder than the one in New Orleans. It’s pretty successful at reaching its goals too.

Yes. But the crowd has gotten "rowdy", Magic Mountain has a LASD station next to the entrance gate, Disneyland has had an Anaheim PD jail on site since the '60s. Magic Mountain has always been awesome, but if/when I go there I choose the day/time very carefully and I approach it like I do the supermarket. I know exactly what I want, I do it and then I leave. They have the best rides but I'm not going to get sucker punched eating a hot dog. When I was a kid it was an annual thing that my parents would take a group of my friends to Magic Mountain for my birthday and we'd just run from ride to ride. It was awesome, it was the '80s and if you weren't there you don't know.

So some county out in AZ has a Yoo-hoo channel with one of their deputies pulling over people, and it’s is 100% shameless clickbait.
And it is hysterical.

Not a fan of Six Flags. I always preferred the no-nonsense Cedar Point “we’re going to make you shat yourself” approach.

Give me a 20oz voodoo ranger and a bunch of marinated chicken thighs on the grill while my kids play in the pool and I’ll almost forget that I used to do cool stuff.
I’m from the PNW. If our interstates weren’t clogged with CA transplants the roads wouldn’t suck. I mean…they still would because WSDOT literally can’t build a bridge but…no. CA drivers are way worse. AZ though is a special brand of terrifying. The drivers are either snowbirds or extreme leadfoots with little in between. 202 in Phoenix is an experience. It was fun getting my Jetta up to *redacted* without fear of a ticket, though.

The story goes that the session players that were hired to record the theme song for Jonny Quest thought it was going to be an easy gig and easy money. Just a kids cartoon, right?
By the end of the session they were all beat and completely winded. They said it was one of the hardest pieces they ever played.
It’s right up there with Cowboy Beebop’s “Tank”

FWIW, I would have passed out 3 notes in.

To be fair, we do shame kink shaming, so that’s not entirely accurate.
To be fair/fair, you’re only correct if shaming kink shaming is someone’s kink.
ETA: …not that there’s anything wrong with that…
That’s my county, Pinal. It’s well done.

@SteveC , do you have an accuracy rating for y!entertainment?
I know the instinct is to trust whatever an unnamed social media influencer says, and it may well be that Disney ride lines are a wasteland of toddler •.
But that doesn’t jibe with my experience at the Magic Kingdom last week at all—my 7yr old dropped a small handful of fries on the ground and a dude was there with a broom and dustbin within a minute. I have a hard time believing kids are just pooping all over the park any more now than they have in the past.
Just because my 2001 Subaru can’t quite reach the speed limit…(that car doesn’t go on the interstate).

Tonight driving near BFI on I5…woman in a Honda Pilot in the passing lane, with no one beside her in the middle lanes, throws a fit because I got up behind her/then passed her on the right.
She had the stereotypical SEA “easily triggered woman” look about her. Zero clue that she was the one in the wrong. Bless her heart
