Ravers can perfectly understand and have amazing conversations with anyone under the age of ten.

Ravers are the only people who don't have their age calculated in months, yet still wear and use pacifiers.

Ravers don't bother planning to meet their friends ahead of time, their friends are always already there.
Ravers don't say "Nice shoes, wanna Screw?"
Ravers give the best hugs and massages.
Ravers have a one track mind. It goes "thump thump tweet thump tweet thump".
Ravers constantly point out the trippy visuals in everyday life.
Ravers helped Adidas through the "lean" years.
Ravers never know the name of their favorite tracks.
Ravers know how to SMILE.
Ravers always choose "e" on multiple choice questions.
Ravers are good at playing "guess what he's on".
Ravers will say "hi" to those people they don't know, yet always see on the bus.

Psychosis Ravers always wish the dj would spin that OC Transpoting track that they keep hearing on the bus ride home. Ravers notice that the doors near the Mackenzie King Bridge have an "e" on the handle. OC Transpo... Mackenzie King Bridge... psychosis do you live in Ottawa?

Meh. I'm a mixture of the two as well, but I think that's healthy. I'm neither completely naive & moronic nor completely nasty & jaded.

No, but the list was written by someone in Ottowa, I think. However I have been there and I did notice that the doors on the Mackenzie King Bridge had an "E" on the handles when I was there visiting a few friends razz

I'm a mix of the both as well. Although, I don't see myself as a raver. I'm a beatfreak. ah hahaha! I'm only jaded in the sense that I hate the jocks that come to parties to find pills, then sit by the wall getting sweaty with their ditsy cheerleader girlfriends. I also get way bent out of shape when kids ask me if I want a light show, and I know that they saw me and my friends dancing like 10 seconds before that. Do they think they're going to impress me? lol.
I was reminded of a funny story while reading the one about the whistle kid choking to death.
One time at a party, there was some dumb kid blowing the hell out of his whistle all off beat. So my friend Mark went up to him and was like, "Hey! Can I see your whistle?" and the kid was like, "Sure." as plurtastic as can be. And Mark took the whistle and tossed it across the room. Then just turned around and walked away. The kid looked like he was gonna cry. lol.
Yeah, anyways.

I HATE funfur pants. Just eww. I have no problem with the "geek" kandy, as I am one myself. I hate cowboy hats and people who go shirtless make me a bit nervous. After they get all hot and sweaty it's not that bad, but to show up shirtless? That's kind of odd. Who cares if they were cool 10 years ago? They're still fun. whee I guess I am just a dork. wink
That comic is a bit nasty although I would like to do that to some people sometimes. redface
