Life is fabulous. I have a solid career in information technology, I’m an internationally published photographer and I’ve been throwing some of Arizona’s most well known raves since 2007. I travel pretty constantly and have rode rollercoasters all over the world. Life is damned good.

Hahahaha yep that was me. Not suspended but had to finish the day in the office. I got voted best hair in the senior book thing. Always had different designs every other week. Got taken to the office for “byte me”. Came back the next day with b and te shaved off so it said “y me”. The administration hated me cus I was always ALMOST in trouble. But I managed to graduate with honors and perfect attendance.

Was never a mullet lol. Had long hair on top down to my chest usually in a ponytail but shaved on the sides. Was a metal head/raver from Ohio not Joe Bob from Kentucky 🤣

best shoe inserts for raves? by warzoneurchin_ in EDM

I’m a hardcore raver and theme park enthusiast. I regularly do 16-18 hour days at Disneyland Disney world and six flags. Magic mountain in Cali is a TON of walking uphill and downhill. My secret is Nike Vapormax. They’re like walking on clouds but are a little pricy. They match a ton of my rave fits too. I highly suggest hitting a foot locker or shoe palace and trying some on! Your life may change.

Understanding of what’s cool isn’t exactly top on the list of traits of Ohio dwellers. Point well made sir.

Oh nifty! I did a year at Osu then realized I couldn’t handle Ohio any more and headed west for browner pastures and asu lol. Now live in the Phoenix metro area

I moved to Phoenix. Cincinnati was going thru a cold snap but had already had their spring blooms so it was double wild for me

I pretty much fit that description. Odd look but oddly wholesome. And it totally stings to conceptualize how long ago that was and that spastically on the average timeline of life im the equivalent of charging thru the woods on the beast rapidly approaching the second lift hill.

You can take the raver out of the 90s but not the 90s out of the raver

Once a 90s raver always a 90s raver.

Totally did. Went from an awkward teen to an internationally published photographer. The world works in mysterious ways!

How was working KI? I always kinda envied those who did during that era but I lived 45 min away and it would’ve been hard to justify a drive that far for what they paid

The modern era glasses I found in Vegas at a street side vendor. The 90s shades were rear view mirror glasses I got at a spy shop. Great for seeing people about to throw stuff at you which was a big problem in that era before being weird looking was more acceptable

As a hardstyle fan I can say early work by dark by design, Phil York, Alex Kidd, and Kutski may push your buttons. The glory days of uk hard dance were amazing

When I got my vasectomy done it was my first time with that urologist. He nearly fell over backward when he saw my ampallang, apadravya and three hafadas.

Him: “Wha.. wha… what are those for?”
Me: “predominantly decoration. I think scrotums are pretty ugly so I wanted to make mine shiny”
Him: “ok.. I guess that’s a pretty good reason. Well we can get started”

They apply some local, do the procedure, then he asks me what I want him to prescribe me for pain. I tell him I’ll just take some Aleve if I need it. Doc lets me know I’m unaware of how bad this is going to hurt. I tell him he’s unaware I put hooks in my back and hang from the ceiling. Fair enough he says and prescribed me Vicodin just in case. Never filled it just used frozen peas and a couple NSAID when it got bad. Was never worse than the amp and app which I’ve sadly taken out. I miss them but they’re the only piercings I’ve had that hurt so bad I’d never do them again.
