What is the coaster that you have been on, and then hated it so much that you never wanted to go on it again?
For me it would be The great American Scream Maghine. I hated that coaster so much.

I don't actually hate either of those, I'll go on them once or twice when I go to that park, just to ride them for the heck of it.

Why?? That is one of my favorite rides at the park. It is smooth, has some air time, and is just a walk on.

Its boring and the excessive theming gets a little too cheesy. Then pile on the fact that 9/10 times I rode it the darn thing broke down and the Disney staff were all complete jerks and idiots during that time. I would never in a million years ride it unless I could walk up to it and everything else in the park was shut down.

Smooth????? uh uh certainly was not, the worst boomerang. There is a reason that it is always a walk-on.

I liked the Great American Scream Machine. Why didn't you like it?
Anyways the coaster i despise is the mind eraser at SFNE. Its just horrible, actually no word can describe that coaster and how bad it is. the only good thing that coaster has going for it, is it never has a line, so if i'm really bored i'll go on it, but won't enjoy it. Same goes for Flashback at SFNE.

The reason why i don't like the Great American Scream Machine is because it gave me a headache. It was the firdt ride I went on and then i had a headache the rest of the day. However i do agree with you about the mind eraser. It is crazy!. But, that coaster is pretty old so that is why it is so shacky. Everey time I ride the mind erasre i always get a slight headache. But also everey time i've rode it the line has always been long.

I don't like Rollie's Coaster on Morey's Piers. It's a Zyklon with harnesses and sharp turns. I'll ride it but I don't enjoy it lol.
Rolling Thunder right side is something I could do without though.

Whirwind at Knoebels (I'm very glad that it's been relocated)
Trailblazer at Hersheypark (Didn't like it when I was 9 yrs. old, & I don't like it now)
Wild Mouse at Dorney Park (Overly-trimmed & can't even be compared to HP's Wild Mouse or Kennywood's Exterminator)
Python at Busch Gardens Tampa (It's even more worse than Whirlwind)
Cheetah Chase at Busch Gardens Tampa (Too overly-braked & trimmed)
I hate them all w/a passion.

I hate the Wildcat at Hersheypark. The thing is so rough, I got a head-ache after riding it, and I rode it in the front seat. Also, I will never ride the Monster Mouse again at Quassy. The ride is in bad condition, has ripped seatbelts, the wheels fall off the ride when it's running, and the supports shake when the cars travel over the helix.

After a few years of hezitating, I finally decided to go on a Vekoma Boomerang for the first time, sidewinder at Hersheypark. And man, did it suck. I'll never be able to go on another boomerang again.

Viper at Great Adventure was pretty awful...at the last turn after the roll, everyone would simantaneously (sp?) scream 'OWW!' at the same time, it hurts your back...good thing they tore it down, though.
I recall seeing this sign on the viper that said, "Once you are bitten by the viper...there is no antidote!", and now I know what they mean!
I'm not a huge fan of the Great American Scream machine either. I like the ride itself, and it's a classic, so I wouldn't want them to tear it down. But the harnesses ae so uncomfortable and cause you to bang your head so much, my ears were completely red after the ride! I wish they would just get new restraints, it's a shame that a perfectly good ride has to be completely ruined by something like restraints.

Hurler at King's Dominion is a waste of perfectly good wood. If the world ever needs more toothpicks, I know where to go.

I also hate the Roller Soaker at Hersheypark. It is a waste of space. It has a very low capacity(when I went it averaged less than 100 riders per hour). That results in lines longer than 1 hour, even at night. Worst of all, it always breaks down. When I rode it, I got stuck in the station for 10 minutes! They should tear the Roller Soaker down, and replace it with a better roller coaster.

I always hear Rolling Thunder is terrible. What's so bad about it? Is it rough or boring?

It's a little bit of both. The whole train shook bounced, and screeched when I rode it. The train was barely moving the whole ride, yet it felt out of control. The whole ride felt like it would fall apart. On some wood coasters that's a good thing. On RT it really felt like it was about to collapse. The ride just sucks.
