"Tonight I rammed..."

I went to Hull fair tonight and on the dodgems (where you crash into each other) I rammed them all in the ass with my mini car.

Twas good fun, especially these 2 chavs that got in the car infront of me, I rammed one of them so hard he nearly sprained his neck.

I was just wondering if you knocked their fake burberry baseball caps off? If you did you could have run it over. Now that would have been amusing!

Yeah, when I went on one down in Butlins a few years back they were telling us the exact same thing. Dead serious they were, too. Raised voices and everything! :o

If you hit someone, they had a go at you while it was still going on.

Heh, a lot of people were just driving around being as careful as possible to not hit each other... :S


Believe me; you really didn't want to hit anyone!
The seat-belts were terribley unsafe. A "one-size fits all" kind that could neither be tightened or enlarged.
For those of us little Year 7s, it was almost a choking experience on-impact, to say the least! :S

I hate the guy who invented dodgems. They used to be known as bumper cars everywhere until they realised this was dangerous and damaged their vehicles. Therefore some reject decided to call them dodgems and the new idea was to miss the other people. How pathetic.

There isn't one... hence, ignore them.

HEAD ON BABY!!!

Haven't been on them for maybe 5 or 6 years, i've got this vague memory of the guy in charge telling us not to ram each other before he started the machine, everyone ignored him and by everyone i mean me and my sister, i think everyone else took notice which seemed a little pointless, whats the point of the bumper cars if you're not allowed to inflict some minor bodily harm on people ?

In a word. yes. If they put it on the side, u'd keep whacking ur knees/crushing ur hands, and down the middle... well, i'm sure u can imagine

I went on one of these at Universal Studios in Spain, and we kept going back again and again. :)

I hate the steering wheels at times, though. Would it really be that awkward to put in a reverse and forward gear, instead of changing gear by which-way and how-far you turn the wheel?

When you suddenly see someone passing your side in a great "ramming" position, you turn rapidly towards him and, suddenly, you've stopped and you going back in reverse... BANG!


Then again, I don't think they're all like this...?

And the Spanish seem to drive far better on these things than do do on any road, from what I saw! ;)

I was on the dodgems once and someone kncicked the hat that I was wearing

Too many pikies around for myh liking

This one time at Chessington I went on Roger the Dodgers' Dogems and we were all driving around and someone went head on into my causing the safety bar to whack me in the face and everyone laughed because it was well funny.

It hurt like hell.

Yes, ram Jonathan instead
