Either call it a rave or call it a party, but for the love of Christ, stop calling it both.

I've said it a thousand times: No matter how delicious the foam looks, do not eat it.

Wow. 44 unrelated incidents, or was there one massive crushing or something?

Fun Fact: Lehigh is French for "stoned to bejeezus".

You sound like you're really hip and much wiser than most of the people here.

It's all fun and games until somebody has to break out the triage tags. Then it just becomes FUN!

That's when you whip around a super-heavy object like a black hole and end up going back in time and killing your grandfather.

It sounds weird, rave party, it's redundant.

A bunch of babies dropped E and didn't drink water while dancing for eight hours straight.

FTFA: Area hospitals reported treating 44 people who attended the event at Rauch Field House. Shupp said the majority were treated for dehydration due to alcohol and substance abuse.

One glass of water per serving of alchohol, folks. It's not that hard.

platedlizard: /don't know what the rule is for drugs, one drink an hour?

Strangely enough, on E it's pretty easy to drink too much or too little water. Wasn't there this one girl way back in the day who got sick and died because of water overdose at a rave?

It's really not that easy. If you're dancing and moving around a whole lot, drink some water. If you're not dancing and moving around a whole lot, don't go drowning yourself with water. The problem is only idiots that basically do intense cardio in the heat for 4 hours without drinking any water, and idiots that hear about the first set of idiots so they chug water non stop that have issues. So basically, idiots and idiots overreacting to the idiots.

"When the crowd was jumping up and down some kid landed on her ankle and it just snapped. All I know is that there were a lot of kids on all different kinds of drugs."

DRUGS.... they'll break your ankles.

In other news people still have raves.

See, this is what happens when you arrest someone that doesn't leave a tip!

One of the problems with ectasy is that it alters the hypothalamic responses to temperature and thirst - putting someone at risk for hyperthermia and water toxicity from hyponatremia. When you hear of someone dying from it, it's usually one of these causes.

In other terms: Ecstasy occasionally exacerbates a preexisting condition of "stupidity." The drug accelerates the effects of the illness, sometimes causing death. It is worth nothing that "stupidity" is often fatal on its own.

Same here, I was preparing Half-Life quotes until I saw you comment and realized I'd misread it. :(

Children should not be admitted to adult parties.

They're what ruined the rave scene.
 
2011-12-05 09:31:10 PM
There are a few rave/dubstep/techno club around here give out bottles of water for free to prevent just that. Of course its much easier to get to the bar in a small club than a massive rave.

I wish I could say that all promotors do that. I'd say about 95% of them do.

Rave culture was starting to be huge about when these kids were being born. I'm in my late 30s, and trying to think back... were there any '60s-'70s nostalgia acts touring college campuses when I was that age? I mean, beside the actual Grateful Dead?

As stated previously, water intake on e varies by a person's movement ratio. Dancing like a fool? 1-1/12 bottles per hour, not to exceed 6 bottles in a 3-4 hour period. Sitting on the sidelines with your hand down some candy girl's pants? 1/2 bottle per hour is just fine.

i remember DB telling me that his day job was on Wall Street. i always wondered if it was the truth.

Came to say this as well. Man, it'd be WAY more interesting to get hospitalized after some kind of Half-Life resonance cascade, rather than your workaday mass alcohol poisoning at a college party.

I dunno, I think I could make a game out of that.

Hmmm...no "Cheat" yet....

Strongbad: "The Cheat is GROUNDED!"
Cheat: *merm!*
Strongbad: "We installed that lightswitch so the Cheat could turn the lights on and off. NOT to have lightswitch raves! Now, let's go pour this glowstick in Homestar's Mountain Dew (I hear they have to pump your stomach after that)."
