Canned Laughter

Canned laughter is an SFX effect added to crappy sitcoms, which need canned laughter to tell you when you're supposed to be laughing. It is used on Towers Times to express that the above poster has made a joke which isn't funny. Such jokes are generally made by [[noobs]] or [[trolls]].

Alternative ride names

Funky'Monk:

According to the bizarre and convoluted unwritten rules of TTF meet ups, rides are not referred to by their real names wherever possible, either because people can't be bothered saying the full name, or to mock an unpopular ride.

A list of common alternative names is shown below, names that are strictly abbreviations are not included:

'''[[Alton Towers]]:'''

*[[Nemesis|Nemesis]] - Nemmy
*[[Oblivion|Oblivion]] - Blivvy, BOLIVIA (shouted)
*[[Ripsaw|Ripsaw]] - Rippy
*Blade - Bland
*Sharkbait Reef - Sharkbait Beef
*[[Sonic_Spinball|Sonic Spinball]] - Chronic Sh*tball
*[[Th13teen|Th13teen]] - ThFAILteen
*[[Submission]] - Substandard

'''[[Thorpe Park]]:'''

*Colossus - Colossucks, Lolossus, For-the-lossus
*[[Nemesis|Nemesis]] Inferno - [[Nemesis|Nemesis]] Inferior, Nymphferior
*Vortex - Bore-tex
*Rumba Rapids - Brapids, Drybina Slumba Cr*pids
*X:\ No Way Out - X:\WTF
*SAW: The Ride - Snore: The Ride, SORE: The Ride
*Rush - Thrush
*Samurai - Scamurai, Shamurai
*Slammer - Schwammer, Schwammy Wammy, Clamper

'''[[Chessington World of Adventures]]:'''

*[[Rameses_Revenge|Rameses Revenge]] - Rammy, Rippy Ripoff
*Bubbleworks - Troubleworks
*Vampire - CAMPire
*Dragon Falls - Rascist Falls

'''[[Mandyland|Pleasure Beach Blackpool]]:'''

*Infusion - Intrusion, Traumafusion, Confusion
*Valhalla - Valerie
*Steeplechase - Sleep-lechase
*Grand National - The Nash
*River Caves - Racist Caves
*[[Rollercoaster|Rollercoaster]] - Rola-Cola

'''[[Drayton Manor]]:'''

*Apocalypse - Poccy
*Splash Canyon - Syphilis Canyon
*G-force - G-farce

'''[[Legoland]]'''
*Viking River Rapids - Ghetto Splash

'''[[Disneyland]]'''
*Space Mountain - Sparse Mountain, Brace Mountain

'''[[Lightwater Valley]]''' - Shitewater Valley

==Noob Names==

In addition to above, there are a number of common mistakes made by theme park [[Noobs|noobs]] regarding ride names. Some of the more frequent include:

*[[Sonic_Spinball|Sonic Spinball]] - Pinball Wizzard
*[[Squirrel_Nutty|Squirrel Nutty]] - Squirrel Nutkin
*[ride name] - The [ride name] *exception to this being anyone saying "The Blade", which is just uber-cool.

Secret Weapon 7 is the latest in the long line of over-hyped coasters to be opening at [[Alton_Towers|Alton Towers]], thanks to Morwenna. Whilst there is no confirmation as to what it will be yet, it is set to open in 2013, and is rumoured to be the world's first stand-up wooden babycoaster, including a FREE stay-down breakfast.

The [[Rollercoaster|rollercoaster]] will be manufactured by [[Pinfari|Pinfari]], and feature 8 inversions, hence the rumoured name, E8g8t. You will have to sign a form declaring that you are not a [[Chav|chav]] in order to be allowed to ride; all chavs (along with [[Trolls|trolls]], [[Noobs|noobs]], and people on the AT Facebook who don't write [[Hex|Hex]]: The Legend of the Towers out in full) will be sent to Rita instead, to ride her like the whore she is.

The Beastie

Funky'Monk: Created page

The Beastie is [[Alton_Towers|Alton Towers]]' classic example of a well themed ride. It is themed around a rough Pinfari in a big red metal cage, and the theme is pulled off to perfection, as you really do feel like you're riding a rough Pinfari in a big red metal cage.

It is believed that [[Drayton_Manor|Drayton Manor]]'s G-Force was their answer to 'The Beastie', they succeeded in making the ride more painful, and also managed to reduce the throughput to 22 persons per hour.
