yeah i guess it would be quite entertaining going to a Rave straight.
laughing at all the lost its and freaks :D

we get a good kick just driving past them sometimes... OH LOOK THERES ASTROBOY and BUGS BUNNY!
 
^^^^^^erba

Goin to a rave straight would be funny for the first 10 mins.....then imagine how bored you would be! Well I would be....
 
yeah I no what ya mean, If there are mad DJ's playing though sometimes I wish I had've gone straight to a rave coz the number of times I've been really amped to see someone and then get too chopped to even remember seeing my fave Djs. Can't say I've actually put it into practice though, but its good to know that people can have a good time at a rave and not be on it. Good for you!:)
 
OT: ROFLMAO @ can't go to a party straight

Of course you can, you just have to actually take an interest in what's going on around you instead of zoning out all night and giggling at your friends...

/\/\/\ after 4/5 years of drug use/abuse i've only just figure it out. wise words.
 
partying straight

*wonders if this should be a seperate thread*

i also advocate the idea of going to a rave/party/club without consuming drugs, but i can't see myself actually doing it often, if ever, tbh. i just don't have the endurance to last all night. if i were to go straight, i would mostly want to be dancing, and there's no *way* that i could actually do it for the same amount of time...there are times when i've definitely been too mashed at a party though, and not paid attention to the music and djing when i wanted to, and in hindsight i think the answer is just moderation.

of course, i think it's great that people want to go drug-free, but if i want to "take an interest in what's going on around [me] instead of zoning out all night and giggling at [my] friends," then i'll just take less drugs...

does that make sense? :)
 
I go out straight every once in a while, but I find staying up past 3am testing to say the least, especially if I dance.

A lot of people seem to favour the idea that going out sober is arduous... If that's the case, don't do it... :)
 
Sometimes I go out, and sometimes I use drugs, sometimes I go out and use drugs, and sometimes I stay home. It's not that hard to do one, the other, both, or neither. I don't see why it always has to be connected for some people.
 
^^^ well, see my reasoning. i understand (and agree) that the strangely circular reasoning that some people have towards drugs and going out is just stupid (when people just can't seem to differentiate going out/drug taking), but others, like myself...i think, actually have fair reasoning. it's just a matter of being responsible - in saying that i don't like to go out for a big night without drugs, instead of going out every week and wrecking myself, i just go out less - every month or two, or three...solved :)
 
I started raving at 19 years of age and have gone to many major events. I stayed up all night on coffee and red bull without worry and never indulged in any illicit substances for three and a half years. I loved the music, the culture, the fact that I didn't have to watch my back for a fight cause I bumped into someone and of course I love talking to people.

I havie only recently realised that I was getting a contact high from the people, many of them on something but a lot weren't. I even watched Human Traffic with my folks and honestly said, that's what it's like but with out the drugs lol. I feel that it gave me an appreciation of the scene which have made my experiences with ecstacy more intense and profound. It also made me realise that I don't need to partake every time I go out, but I don't go out that much anymore.

Cuddles ;)
 
I actually party more often straight than altered. I really get off on the whole contact high and love being able to remember the DJ sets and all the cool people I've met (some of the best were the other people having a straight night ;)). Although I'm usually dead my 3am, I don't last much longer when rolling as I'm pretty conservative on the chems and listen to my body. I also tend to dance MORE when straight - I'm more coordiated and get more out of the music, but then again, I tend to be a little odd. I have made it though the entire night a couple of times completely straight and gone home in broad daylight, which I have never done while pilling.

Slighly OT: is it possible to have naturally higher seratonin levels? I can experience some mild E-like effects pretty much whenever I want (providing I am well slept and non-stressed) and sometimes I can reach pretyy full-on states on my own. I also have funny heat reception - I'm always burning myself on things that don't feel all that hot and have been told this can indicate higher seratonin, but the source was unqualified. Just curious...

onetwothreefour and pleonastic, I think you guys have really good points to make and I agree with what both of you have said,

going out/drug use need not be circular, but who will argue that the best place for drug use (pills I am talking about) is when going out?
 
I love go out with a nice mix of weed and red bull.. get's me going all night, technically it's not 'straight' but it's close enough. Also when i go to doofs i often go straight (no weed, no coffee) and kick it all night. I find i feel like i'm on a pill when i go straight anyway. This could be the result of a context dependent cue (my brain associates being in that environment with lot's of energy and excitment) or the fact that i am obsorbing the energy from everyone around me. I just love to dance, no matter where I am. I feel just as free off drugs dancing then on them (sometimes more so) and i feel that a lot of people don't only need the drugs for energy but also because there not fully comfortable dancing straight.

Peace

I will! =D

Home is far better IMO - but each to their own I guess. Pills are almost like two different drugs when taken out compared to when taken at home. Set and setting makes all the difference... :)

Sigh, i can't believe threads like this still keep popping up.

I guess we're just experiencing the Bluelight Perpetuity Cycle (tm) again. Excuse me while I go and smear myself in Vicks and wave glowsticks around, once so eloquently put, like the proverbial retarded air traffic controller.Dm.

....Na...it sounds like you just experienced the Bluelighter Superiority Syndrome ;)


I can go out straight if i wanted to but i rarely do. I cherish the whole 'going out and getting fucked up in moderation' ritual. It finishes the week off really nicely for me. If i wanna do something straight i'll go and do my food shopping or whatever. I'm happy for other people if they wanna do it straight though...whatever floats your boat :)

Respect bro!

Pleonastic, yeah fair enough I stand corrected! One of the best I have had was when on a couch with a broken leg! Holy shit that was fun... =D
 
^^^ hehehe, laying the smackdown on the old-jaded mofos :)

I'll also argue that the best place for pills is not when going out, but a home environment or an environment with a group of close friends? That's where you can truely experience the finer subtleties of MDMA. I've had ridiculously deep conversation with friends (sober or chopped) about life, philosophy, music, relationships, and have always had a more than positive experience from doing so.

That said, pilling out can be a lot of fun.. it's just more of an MDMA condusive environment at home/with close friends.
 
Might I suggest a new thread on this topic...
'The best place for taking pills...?'

I reckon it would be an interesting one.....
