It's not Magic Mountain here. It may be Great America

2. It's a Six Flags, commercial, right?
No offense, but I hate that commercial - largely because I have such an intense hatred for that song.

12. That music, whatever it is, gets so annoying--especially
because that commercial is on constantly. I see--or hear--it so many times a day. It's always on during all the news broadcasts. In a way, I find the dancing guy amusing, but at tge same time I find him and the commercial very annoying. Also not sure what the point of the commercial is.

4. Same company owns em all
They use him for Six Flags New England, too. I've seen the commercial a hundred times, and still laugh when it comes on! It is HYSTERICAL!

6. Bad makeup job
It's probably a 25 year-old under all that beige goop.

I'm sorry, but I still can't grasp the appeal of this commercial.

7. No idea. He kind of looks like the late Swify Lazar with those glasses.
He makes me laugh so hard.

11. Yeah, he does look like him....
...I was thinking of some old famous gay guy who was a leader in the "cause". Don't know who I'm thinking of.

14. Freaky commercial surrealism at it's best
faintly scary too...one half expects the dancing octagenarian to pull a breadknife out of his tux and shuffle-ball-chain at someone's throat.

16. I hate it. That music, whatever it is, just repulses me on some primal
level. I have no idea why, but it just makes my skin crawl, and makes me want to pick up a baseball bat and go destroy the mailboxes of right-wing media pundits.

Horrible.

19. I couldn't agree more
I have such a hatred for that music that I'd be happy to exile the band responsible for it to Repug National Committee headquarters - the only place where their vile tripe could be drowned out by something worse.

There are no words to describe how much I detest that fucking song.
