This member is the original thread starter. hardhouse What am i!?!?!?

Ok, so I've been called a "graver". I looked it up on the most official source of information ever, urbandictionary.

I would say my appearance fits the bill of goth. I wear dark clothes, rings, chains, straps, buckles etc. I listen to industrial, metal, etc. however the hair is usually done up in spikes (no dreads or shaved head or any of that jazz).

I also own lots of dickies shirts, "outrageous" tshirts (see tshirthell) and stuff like that of that genre. 90's punk? I guess..?

Here is the catch, I dance (TERRIBLY-I fuckin suck. But I like doing it!), love the happy music, love the people, think PLUR rawks, etc. I don't have a preference of event size either so long as I don't get knifed haha

So, do I say I'm a graver, or a raver?

Anybody with me?

What would all yall say you are?

I'm not worried. I am what I am, I just want to know what I am is called. If it has a name. I think it is interesting.

Weird, I guess.


PS: someone suggested Cyber-Kid.

who comes up with these? haha

lols. (insert random word here) Raver.

We can just make our own rave lables.

80's death metal raver
Break the amp raver
Speaker fly raver
Colorful WTFBBQ Kandi munching raver
The random kid that no one knows but he has all of the good ecstasy raver
The random kid that no one knows but everyone knows he's rolling raver
Random good lightshow raver
Random drunk girl raver

And so on and so forth. I've had my fun. It's time for work. I envy those of you that won't read this until noon because you were sleeping.

Anybody with me?

What would all yall say you are?

Why put a label on yourself? I could identify as a dancer, kandy raver, mother, girlfriend, daughter, best friend, percussionist, teacher, student... blah blah blah.... no need for labels though. I am who I am... I identify as many things, and they all make me who I am. No need for labels

Eventhough you shouldnt worry about what you are, I get why you want to know. Its intresting to know different styles of things. From what you described, yes you are a graver. A graver is a gothic raver. A cyber raver is the ravers that dress very similar but are colorful. They have pants with chains, skirts with tights and fuzzy legwarmers, boots, heavy eye make up (some guys too), cybergoggles, and hairfalls. They look like gravers but have bright colorful acessories.

Wheeee!

Yeah, I just think the "science" behind the naming is neat. Yes, I just said neat.

We all are what we all are, and no label can or should change that. I just think it is 'neat' how certain attributes of style and culture get grouped together and named.

I guess graver sounds cool enough :P
