13While the other characters are catching their breath and trying to regain their bearings, one of them quips, "Well, wasn't that fun?", "Let's do it again!", or some other enthusiastic rejoinder. Depending on the speaker, this could be either a [[SincerityMode sincere statement]] or [[SarcasmMode old-fashioned sarcasm]].

He says that he's not scared, he just doesn't like rides where you go up, or down, or around, or through stuff. They finally find a kiddie train ride called the "Chew Chew Train" that only goes forward, which Albert agrees might be good for him. Both, however, unwittingly end up in the line for the "Tail Twister," which happens to be right next to the line for the Chew Chew Train, and which is the biggest roller coaster in the park. After the ride, which takes them ''forward'', ''up'', ''down'', ''left'', ''right'', ''around'' and ''through'', Wanda says that she was too terrified to squeak, but as for Albert...
137-->'''Wanda:''' I know. You're never scared. You just don't like when a ride goes '''up''' and '''down''' and all '''around'''.\

140* ''Literature/BridgeOfBirds'':
141** In Barry Hughart's ''The Story of the Stone'' (sequel to ''Bridge of Birds''), four characters go over an improbably long series of rocks and other nearly lethal water hazards while escaping from enemies via a river.

142** In the third book, ''Eight Skilled Gentlemen'', Master Li Kao has apparently learned his lesson; after shooting through yet another series of water-filling tunnels, Master Li simply looks at them wistfully and comments that the man who could re-create that experience would make a fortune.
143* Icecarls in ''Literature/TheSeventhTower'' enjoy joking about going back and facing dangerous circumstances again. They're so deadpan about it that Tal freaks out until Milla doubles over laughing at his expression.
144* ''Franchise/StarWarsLegends'': In ''[[Literature/NewJediOrder Rebel Strike]]'', the Wraiths and three Jedi have to infiltrate Coruscant by sort of parasailing down into the atmosphere, in things that aren't even big enough to be called drop capsules. On the way down, Luke controls nervousness, confers with his wife, and monitors the emotional state of the third, younger Jedi, Tahiri. He worries that he'll have to comfort her when they're down; it's bad enough for him, how much worse for her? Of course, when they do land she's absolutely thrilled, saying that she wants to do it again.

153* ''Series/{{Bones}}'': Brennan tends to throw herself fully into any assignments that involve her and Booth going undercover as "Roxy" and "Tony". Notably in "Double Trouble in the Panhandle", she thoroughly enjoys playing Booth's assistant in a knife-throwing act and even tries walking a tightrope at one point.

158** After [[EnemyMine teaming up]] with Buffy and Angel to fight a whole bunch of other vampires in "[[Recap/BuffyTheVampireSlayerS3E8LoversWalk Lover's Walk]]"...

Malcolm, who just remembered the girl's words about enjoying all the little moments in life, no matter how small they are, excitedly proclaims that it's the best family trip he's ever been on, and can't wait to do it again, while the others just scoff and roll their eyes.
166* The Gumbys on ''Series/MontyPythonsFlyingCircus'':

182** ''Series/StarTrekDeepSpaceNine'': In "The Magnificent Ferengi", Quark's hostage exchange went sideways and became an improvised rescue mission.

184'''Quark:''' You'll be the first person I call. (''Turns to Rom'') If I ever decide to do anything like this again, kill me.
185** ''Series/StarTrekEnterprise'': In the penultimate episode, "Terra Prime", our heroes have to sneak up on the BigBad at his base on Mars, so they fly their shuttlepod in the tail of a comet to mask their approach, leading to a ''very'' rough ride and a near-crash on the red planet itself.
