I'd assume no-one mentioned it because no-one cares... Strange decision though, what difference will a day really make? -
Welcome to, job hunting... Sure the parks are looking for people if you're feeling suicidal daring...

Looks like one of those substitute rides you had to do in RCT because it didn't originally have the same style of coaster as what you wanted...

Nah, the worst water on a UK water ride is the one at Flamingoland... Grim...
Bad Walibi Holland...
£20 for the CuChu pin badge?
Surely the depiction of it is kinda realistic? Like that is how a person with multiple personalities could act? The change in body chemistry might be a bit far fetched but I'm sure there's some realism in there... Sounds like people just assume that as McAvoy is portrayed as a 'villain' it must be demonising it, whereas it really doesn't... Kevin is as much a victim as the girls and clearly at the whim of more dominant personalities... I'd imagine this film will dominate Psychology courses for a few years...
This post is useless without pics...
Banning anyone from 7 countries, citing 9/11 (even though these countries weren't actually involved, but those ones aren't banned for whatever reason), and even if you've got dual nationality or a green card you're still buggered? Imagine over a plane ride you turn up and are told "nope you can't come in" (especially American immigration being miserable buggers) and your entire life is pretty much finished as a result... Because THAT'S not going to help ISIS at all... Horrible times to live in, especially when our own glorious leader is staying quiet for the sake of a positive trade deal... Things are only going to get worse I fear...
You say that as if there's been any consideration towards that factor...
Autopia has been rumoured to go for years, it'll be no surprise when it does either... They could have it as a sub zone, however I prefer the idea of it taking over the 4D cinema area and Pizza Planet, as it would keep it mainly indoors and not detract too much from the area...
On board ride soundtracks demand context though, the original was certainly more embedded in the Verne like theme compared to the disco rave (and I say it as someone who likes that music)... It's the same as those crying over Bubbles dying, even though that happened in 2006, only this is an overlay and there are plenty of improvements that could be made to it anyway... I'm sure most would think the best SM would be a 1.5 mixture of them...
Mission 2 was inferior, though improvements were made (launch sequence mainly), the removal of the queue line windows, original classical style soundtrack and general bits and bobs were some awful decisions for a 'modern' take on a ride set in a Victorian steampunk themed attraction... I wouldn't be surprised if after this overlay it changes into something in between the two versions...
Wouldn't be surprised if it does close later in the year due to SW8 construction though...
Actually, when we look back at what Mark said in the first place, we get the following: So, Mark never referred to removing the First Amendment itself, but an add-on to it... Here's the Wiki for it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Amendment_Defense_Act The irony of you telling me that I don't care about factual context has been blown up quite considerably there, given that you didn't read it properly in the first place... It's no surprise that LGBT people would be worried that this act would be repealed really, and it's also true that it doesn't affect straight people (ohhh like myself), yet I can understand that fear and loathing for who you are is a scary and sad place to be...
Definition of like: "having the same characteristics or qualities as; similar to." So Mark didn't say it would only be LGBT rights, but used them as an example of an easy target of a group that would be put upon quite easily by those in charge, much like ethnic minorities or disabled people... Apparently now you also have to flat out deny something that is widely claimed/accused by someone else? Lol wut?
What no Rocky Express?
Police confirmed no arrests from the marches yesterday, so there goes that argument out the window... Besides seems that they're too busy focusing on "alternative facts" right now... Let's be honest as well, those who go to cause chaos are not there for the protest, they use it as a front/excuse to get involved... People aren't directly protesting the result, they're protesting what it means... That it means that certain beliefs and principles (racism, sexism, etc) are acceptable in modern society when they are not... They want their voices heard in a time of uncertainty about the future (especially for the poor and the changes to housing benefits and ACA/Obamacare), hell if anti-abortion people can mingle with relative peace to yesterday's marches then there's a bigger goal clearly... I'll let someone in the LGBT community get involved in that... But I completely disagree with that...
Well not to assume much but the removal of it from the White House website (as well as Climate Change policies) isn't a positive thing for those who would be affected... As for the apparent paradox thing, what does it even mean? Given all definitions relate to hypothetical time travel and changing the past to affect the future? I don't think Ian you even understand it...
Seems that it's because the protests were seen/reported as anti-Trump, rather than supporting women's rights given his election... Us 'cis males' (I hate such terms because they're usually unnecessary) wouldn't understand because we don't deal with the issues (such as being grabbed by the pussy) on a daily basis... The lies involved in both referendum and election were far worse than before though... Worse than the Lib Dems free tuition fees one for sure, because it's now affecting almost everyone in both countries... Will the protests' do anything? It depends on what the end goal is doesn't it? I doubt the goal is for the majority for Trump to be impeached, but to ensure that those who's rights have been fought for over time are not reduced because of a foolish person in charge (especially given recent events in America)...
