Here's an email I received recently, I don't know if it's been up here before or not, but I laugh every time I read it, some of these are SO true! Enjoy!
You know your a raver when:
-Your friends call you Orko or Obiwan Kenobi because you wear
clothes so baggy they look like robes
-On days that you wear 'normal' sized pants, people are amazed
that you have legs...
-You're not surprised when black stuff comes out of your nose
the day after a party...(packard plant,anyone?)
-your spelling makes you look in need of hooked on phonics
-you willingly trap yourself in a car for hours to go to a party
you're not even sure you can get into
-the total amount of sleep you get on the weekends is the sum
of how many times you've blinked since Friday night
-you grin like a dumbass whenever you see a commercial for 'E'
television
-you feel wickedly guilty when your clueless parents tell you to
'have a nice trip' when you and your friends are on your way to
an out of state party
-when gas stations serve as landmarks for getting around Detroit
because you've been to each one at least once before asking
for directions (this may only apply to me and my crazy stupid
friends)
-the most important accessory for being glammed up at a
party?... a pacifier
-you feel subhuman on Sundays cos you're tired, cracked out,
deaf, dirty, sore, and you're still seeing those damned spots
-you start naturally migrating to anything fluroescent in hopes it
might be someone who's good with glosticks
-you and other kids wearing phat pants smile at each other like
goofs even though you've never met before
-u know u Part-E when the conductor asks for youre train ticket
and u either dont have it cause u spent all youre money u
brought to the party on drugs, or u start to look for it and have
to search through the mounds and mounds of crap in youre
pockets , vicks inhaler, flashlight, book, pens, stickers,
lighters, wallet usualy empty a shitload of flyers, youre coat
check ticket why did i keep that? and you just through stuff at
the conductors feet till hes covered
-you have the most indepth interesting conversations with
people under 10
-you think prehaps bill gates was thinking of something else
when he designed that little e logo in the upper right corner of
your internet screen.
-You know you are a raver when you are willing to spend 30
bucks on a party you may not get into, or 25-30 bucks on
something that may not be E, but you find it hard to part with
$3 for a bottle of water.
-you know you're a raver when all your friends have dumb names
like subsonic chronic, novice, rabbit, muffin, gollum and saffron...etc
-you know you're a raver when you've been close friends with
someone for weeks without knowing their first name. "whattaya
mean sawa's real name isn't sawa???"
-you know you're a raver when you start to describe dates using
parties instead of calendar dates. "man, i haven't been this tired
since hullabaloo 7!" or "wow, that's the longest line i've seen
since citrus!"
-You know you're a raver when visiting the Dollar store is the
highlight of your trip to the mall. :p
-you know youre a Raver when u can stand right in front of a
5000 wt speaker for an hour and be loving it
-You know your a raver when you've got flyers all over your wall
(kinda like wallpaper).
-You know your a raver when sketching becomes normal.
-You know your a raver when your hitch hiking for a ride to DIY
over the internet...HINT HINT
-you've got a huge pile of dead glostix in your room, you don't
want to throw them away, 'cos of sentimental value.
-your backpack you carry enough battery power to light up a
small city...
-your hat is so covered with stickers that you can't tell what
colour it was originally.
-you know you're a raver when you think a whistle is a musical
instrument and try out for the school band but they just stare at
you and think you're weird.
-"when shrugging your shoulders can constitute for a
conversation"
-when your driving your car home and you feel like your in a
video game"
-"when you get home and you have absolutely nothing you can
possibly talk to your parents about your weekend"
-"when you just dont give a @#$% what you look like anymore
and just dance, dance , dance"
-"when hygeine is optional at 7 in the morning-hey lets head to
the afterparty!"
-"when you dont know your soulmates name"
-When your biggest concern is where the next Hullabaloo is
going to be held, and you can think of nothing else
-WHEN EVERYTIME YOU STOP TO
TALK TO SOMEONE OR DO SOMETHING YOU DO THE
"RAVA STANCE" (PUT BOTH OUR HANS ON YOUR HIPS
AND REST YOUR WEIGHT TO ONE SIDE)
PLUR,

thats sooo true, i like the one about the 3 dollar water
------------------
"whatever it is i think i
see, becomes a tootsie
roll to me"
 
You know you're a raver when at your family Thanksgiving dinner your Grandmother asks "Does anyone wanna roll?" and it's the funniest thing you ever heard.
------------------
Sometimes you wanna go...where everybody knows your name
 
My mom bought me this big big big pair of pants for my sailing trip....very rave chic and she said "I got you some pants for your trip" I just laughed to myself and said yeah my trip....but not the one you are thinking about.....Peace

i'd like to add just one
"when your still rolling the day after when you sit down to thanksgiving diner with your family and try to explain why you'll just have a salad."
 
HA! That's fucked up. In work when I do the RAVA stance this one lady starts singing "I'm a little tea pot short and stout" to bust my chops. I just explain to her it the drugs. Really.
 
You also know your a raver when your car/building sites/lawn mower/neighbours dog/kettle etc etc etc have wicked beats and "you can really dance to it" the morning after!

***This starship breaks for black holes and temporal disunities.***
 
You know your a rave when...... you stand at a urinal for 3 and a half minutes with no results.
 
you know you're a raver when. . .
you have a bigger vitamin collection than your 90 year old grandmother. . .
you own more "toys" as an adult than you did as a child. . .
you collect pill bottles. . .
you would even remotely consider the idea of attending an "after-party" at noon the day after already partying 12 hrs. . .
 
when you have 2 genres of friends.
when you can't sit in the bar, drink, and listen to fill me up buttercup...
when you have 3 sets of clothes....normal, work, and club (niether of which you can use to wear at any other time)
when you finally get your ass in gear at 2 in the morning and think to yourself that the night is still young (tell that one to your drinkin buddies).
when you can go to a party with hundreds to thousands of people all totally wacked and not see a single fight
when you cant see special k cereal without making a huge fuckin scene
when your words consist of letters (e,g,k)
when you come home with your hands, arms and wrists covered with stamps
 
Very amusing post on a boring day, thanks ppl.

"Trip, Trip, CandyFlip!

I know I'm a raver. I couldn't help dancing to the bleeping in the doughnut shop, 7 am after a rave. So true Andromeda!
 
You take your walkman with you on your smoke break at work, and you just have to blast that happy hardcore and dance dance dance! Then when your co-workers give you funny looks and ask you what you're doing, you make each one of them listen to your music till they forced to agree it's the best damn music they're ever heart! (ok maybe this is just me...)

when you carry your camera everywhere and take pictures of every sign with the letter E you can find
when walking into Big K (mart) takes on a whole new meaning
when you fight with your roomate's 8 year old son for his toys
when you wonder what ANYTHING and EVERYTHING you do would feel like while rolling
and i especially can relate to "not knowing your soulmate's last name"
SO TRUE!!!
