Well, ok. But Open Studios really isn't a rave. At all. It usually closes around 4am or so these days.

I really wouldn't say that the average clientelle at OS is really that peter-pan. But I guess you're entitled to your opinion.

Where exactly is the rule that says that you're not allowed to be grown up and still dance all night? If that's the case, then fuck being grown up, I don't think I'll ever do that.

I agree with you. I refuse to grow up. The point is that being a grown up doesn't include going to 'all night dance parties' - and dancing till 4am is prob considered by most to be just that.

[ebbomega]

If you say so. Frankly I think partying till 4am should be the exclusive domain of adults, but the kids will forever want to rebel and do what the adults do so they'll keep on doing dumb shit. That dumb shit gets associated with party people and as such partying is looked at as child's play. But I'm pretty well-on in my life, I have a good job and am responsible in ways that kids really aren't. I wouldn't say I'm not grown up. There was a time in my life when I feared growing up but that's been long past for a number of years.

What I've learned is that being responsible and having fun are not mutually exclusive.

[Erin]

Blah blah blah... the point I was making is that people still out at a party till the wee hours of the morning aren't grown ups. They are still out playing like little kids. I have my own place, a car, a good 9-5 job etc... but when I'm out at a jungle night - trust me, I'm not a grown up.

**If I have to type the words grown and up again... so help me!! :)

And my point is: you're wrong.

Silly.

[ebbomega]

Yeah, I don't really know what else to say, except that I completely disagree with every fundamental point that you've based your argument off of.

And to be perfectly honest, I kinda feel offended that I'm being grouped with children just because of how I like to spend my spare time. I'm not a heavy drug user and I have a lot of reasons that I do what I do, none of which is "I have a problem with growing up."

[Grapes]

I think who's right or wrong depends on whether we're talking about partying crazy "once in a while" or "every weekend".

*edit* and how much drugs are involved.. and other factors.

As usual, people have to be assessed on a case by case basis

[Erin]

^ Good call.

Thanks for the kind words brutha. I couldn't agree more RE: my girlfriend (Vanessa). I'll be shopping for a ring sometime soon I'm sure. ;-)

[Wood]

Dude. I'm sorry, but going to a rave or rave type event keeps you from the grown up stage of your life. And like I said before - Most people in their 30s refuse to grow up now a days - and I happen to be one of them. Judging by what you continue to say - you are too. :) I'm pretty sure you can agree with that one right?
