Jumpin' Jellyfish: California Adventure, Tokyo Disneysea

Propaganda:

"This was my absolute favorite ride as a young undiagnosed autistic little girl. I would make a family member (usually my mom) ride it with me over and over and over and over. I don't know why they put up with it lmao, but Jumping Jellyfish will always hold a special place in my heart because of little like 5 year old me "

Maliboomer: California Adventure (2001-2010)

Propaganda:

"Listen. Yes, I know the vomit/scream shields were gross, but they were part of the charm! This was one of my favorite rides before they tore it down (supposedly for not being "family friendly" enough. Or at least that's the rumor I was told. It could be wrong, but if it's not wrong, it's a really stupid reason. Especially since they replaced it with a smoking park). If you're not familiar with it: you would be strapped into one of 16 seats all placed around a center square pillar. Then the seats would slowly rise up the pillar a few feet, until they would suddenly shoot way up to the top (150 ft tall. It was the tallest ride at the park. I think technically Tower of Terror was taller, but that was the building. Not the actual ride part). Then when at the top, they would free fall back down. This would repeat a couple of times and that was it. It was amazing. When at the very top, right before falling, you would feel like you were floating for a second. I loved it. You also got an amazing view of the city for that brief moment. The best part? It almost never had a line. My siblings and I would always just walk right on whenever we passed by it and the operators would let us ride it again as many times as we wanted. I miss it :( "
